Exactly the type of thing I'd expect you to post VD! You're some man for the stats.

Villa Highs: Reaching the LC final again / Deano putting us two up at home to Manu
Villa Lows: Losing the final / And getting knocked out in the qtrs this season.

Non-Villa High: The current Ashes success
Non-Villa Low: Kevin Phillips equalising in stoppage time for Small Heath against Brentford in the LC- if he hadn't WE could have lost gracefully (and with less embarrassment) at Brentford in the Qtr Final and had a proper allocation for the lge game The Sty in a few weeks time.

I'm glad to see the back of 2010. It wasn't a good year for me personally, 2009 was much better. Here's to a much better 2011...

Villa Highs: League Cup semi final second leg win against Blackburn, getting to Wembley twice and the 2-2 draw against united seemed to point to a bright new future with great young players with a good  strategic philosophy....seems to have stalled somewhat since then.

Villa Lows: The way MON walked out on us, losing James Milner and the inevitability about it, the pathetic refereeing we faced at Wembley and the drubbings at Chelsea, Newcastle, Liverpool and Man City.

Non villa highs: Met some great people earlier this year who are now good friends, I also made fairly good progress academically and of course another high was writing a match review of a pre-season friendly for H&V!

Non villa lows: I had a few fall outs with people this year that I regret, watching a world cup without Ireland, some mistakes with women. 2010 was a year where I felt some old teenage hangups creep back in. I'm hoping to get back on track this year.
