Semi final at Villa park

1-0

1-0 to the Shit in the second leg and the have a pen with the last kick of the game. Their number whatever taken by whoever steps us and smashes the thing so hard it rebounds off the bar and sails back 95 yards to a falining whoever their keeper is who gets the lightest touch with his finger tips. 1-1 Good night. We then beat Burton 12-0 in the final.

Paddy Power has installed Aston Villa as the 13-2 favourites to win the 2016-2017 Skybet Championship.  For those of you not familiar with betting, it means if you put a £50 stake on Villa, you will lose £50.

It'll be 5000-1 at Christmas

13-2 is a pisstake. Unless things change soon for the better I would say 13-2 for relegation would be more of a value bet.

Every week someone else's cup final, we'll be an ace cup team with that week in week out experience, FA Cup winners in 2018 is nailed on.

Then again.

It will start off as a novelty for the bumpkins.  Going to Villa Park, the Versaille of football, having 5000 Villa packing out their pokey little ground, but when we've won 9 of our first 10 and are smashing up all in sight, their eyes will quickly flicker to the next fixture after us for hope of better returns.

It's all well and good being all gung ho optimistic, but it'll just make the disappointment all the worse for you when we're 15th after 10 games.

Last time round they all upped their game and we got beaten at home regularly.

I admire the optimism of those who think we'll walk the league, unless they know who is going to be managing us and who we are going to be signing.

That's it for me. One to answer going into the first game of the season.

any one familiar with the Paul Newman film, Slap shot,

that's exactly how we have got to approach this fuckin graveyard of a league,

show no respect and fuckin loads of arrogance, and win at all costs.
