Well, thank **** for that. When you are a Villa fan, cut adrift from your home base, you have to take what's on offer.
Nicosia, Cyprus is not a tourist city and living here means you have very few options to go out and watch AV on a big screen in a bar. Won't darken the door of the 'The Mighty Reds YNWA'/Man U/Arse Supporters Bars - unbearable.
Normally end up in the Spurs Bar with my best mate who is Mr Spurs personified (who was reeled in as a kid by Blanchflower magic). The prospect of sitting with a bunch of Greek Cypriot, English Cypriot, Brit expats and squadies on tour of duty holler'in CB on, poncing around the field in a white shirt was too much to contemplate. Enough to drive you off the island.
Welcome back CB, glad you never really went away....
