I have been Villa from birth and have never as far as I'm aware heard us called that before they started it. It's either The Villa, The Lions or The Villains as far as I'm concerned.Maybe so, but on a list of things to get annoyed about, this is pretty low right now for me.

No shit Sherlock, the Championship you say? Thanks Gregg, where would we be without your cutting edge journalism? How about you do something useful and tell us why the Gollini and Tshibola transfers haven't gone through.

Our hated rivals are called the Blues so why would anyone use any part of that when describing us is beyond me? I feel nauseous even at the thought of it. I read interest when those long left Brummies say that their hatred of the putrid simmering Shit from Bordesley has been tempered by absence. Not mine. Not one bit. I'm still awaiting the day the horrible fuckwitted Vomitorium is closed forever and the stain on our fair city is removed once and for all. And no there are no claret & ***** just the Mighty Aston Villa. Just use the name.
