Didn't know that Villa played Everton in 1939/40, despite or before, the wartime ban.

So the 200th was actually last season. Don't remember a BBC celebration of the oldest fixture, either time. Brill article, Dave.

Crap domestic and worldwide football coverage, BBC, ITV, BT, SKY.

*Sigh.*

Nice one Dave.

Thought it was just me and mine, but met several Villains after the game who were as outraged as I was at some of Clattenberg's strange decisions. Definitely Everton's MOTM for creating both of their goals!

It feels good to be a Villa fan.

3rd goal was quality.
