What I've noticed so far this morning is that, even here in Ireland, football fans with no interest in Aston Villa (remember , are casually talking about us getting sucked in. It's going beyond my as a villa supporter because I'm hearing it second hand from people who know I'm a villa fan.
My boss, an arsenal fan, didn't even rib me about the match. He just said 'that genius who manages you guys has turned you into yellow bellies who roll over and die at the first sign of trouble'. It's all getting too grave even for people to slag us off. We are pitied.
