Why would they want to sack all their players and go part-time just to join a pointless league that was founded eighty years after they were?

To save on fuel costs?

Not a bad idea. I think I wouldn't mind Villa joining the Midland Combination... we might even win the odd game!

As it goes Swansea do their best with tickets prices. They offered us a reciprocal £20 ticket deal last season which Villa pathetically bartered up to £25.00. It might be a free coach game as well so not too bad an Xmas away game cost wise.

You sound pretty clued up, do you think we'll get any free travel next season?

I feel pretty gloomy and despondent about our chances next season so I will say nothing about the fixture list apart from I think we're in trouble unless things get sorted out quickly.

It's the first time for 24 years I haven't had to plan my next twelve months out today.

Dave, is that just because you won't be out on the streets selling or you are taking a break altogether?

No, Lambert's not renewed Dave's contract. He's going for has-beens instead of young and hungry! ;-)

Stoke away is my least favourite game. It's an horrendous starter.

Stoke at home is my least favourite game, because I feel obliged to attend.

I might be wrong but I could have sworn I saw Stoke away and Newcarrsul at home - I am not exactly scared to death of facing those two to be honest.

Stoke away is not a bad start, as long as we don't try and out Stoke them.

Nice to finish the season in the sunshine (hopefully) on the coast.
