I've always found it strange how local provincial clubs are genuinely obsessed with us. 

Of course we meet another one next weekend.  Who are so obsessed with us that I have it on good authority they were planning a minutes applause on 8 minutes to celebrate our then points haul.  As they can't count to 12 they might well have to abandon it now.

As Percy put it - clubs like Leicester, Coventry and Stoke don't like us because they know a successful Villa would knock thousands off their gates.

To be fair we are generally liked in Stoke. I see the point though but think it's more an anti-Birmingham thing and we're just the biggest club in Birmingham.

Our small time neighbours apart, Wolves, Coventry and Leicester all hate us. Bless.

Interesting that our last two performances, contributing 25% of our total points haul have come sans Micah.

I lived and worked in Leicester around the time Sir Brian left that hell hole to return like the messiah figure he is, and they were a little bit upset.  The crisp-munching, Lineker-fellating, shit-accented twats.

I'm not having that.  You missed out Kasabian-loving.

One day this week at number one in the most read stories on the BBC website was Gary Lineker's divorce. Sigh.

I've watched it back, and the decision not to give the penalty for the foul on Kozak is really pissing me off.  If we'd have beaten Leicester, it would have given us a huge amount of confidence, and of course 6 points from safety looks a lot different to 9.  We've been crap enough ourselves without shite referees making it harder for us.

Agreed. Though never a fan of David Moyes, he went even further down in my estimation this morning on MOTD II claiming neither assaults on Kozak were a penalty.

We are to the midlands what Leeds are to Yorkshire, by far the biggest club around and the rivals hate both for it, even during hard times.

Some on here have said he turned us down, maybe we turned him down and he's feeling rather bitter about it. He was spouting nonsense, which is very acceptable on MOTD.

I was surprised Risso missed it.

That's enough of the praise do they have any bad points?
