Funny how everyone suggested they helpfully conceded the cup tie to us by playing the kids. Not so many mentions of the kids also beating Everton and Shrewsbury.

If we can emulate our form in our last 5 league games over the next 13 we’ll end up on 43 points.

Not so clear cut, we play at a park while Shrewsbury have a meadow.

Anyone can say Villa correctly. The same cannot be said for Shrewsbury.

Some people call us "Veeya",  "Virra" or "Weela", depending on where they come from.

If you count Egyptian players as African which you can, we have an excellent chance of luring the ACR into revealing himself again.
