Awesome, important win.We've got our Villa back, and after missing last week's game due to a suspected stroke, I couldn't have been happier to be back at Villa Park.I love Aston Vlla.
Just heard on the radio that our goal keeping coach Tony Parkes' son died today. That's all that was said. Awful news.

Sincere condolences to him, his wife and family.
Agreed - puts football into perspective - at half time the club remembered former employees who had passed away - a nice touch (also acknowledged by the West Ham fans - respect for that). They mentioned lovely old Jack - the tour guide - what a fantastic fella he was - a real Villa man through and through.I didn`t know Gordon Smith had died - when did Smudger pass away?

Seemed fairly quiet in L4 considering it was essentially full.Although there were moments towards the end when they were lumping it up to Collins that most of us wished we were still hiding behind the flag.That's a stonking pic, can I/we nick it for FB?
