I still think we will stay up relatively comfortably - not by a huge margin, but maybe 2 or 3 points. I think the break will have done us a favour and given us a chance to shake off what was unquestionably a poor run of form.

But I maintain that whoever goes down will have been mistreated.

Maybe we can use the e-voucher to buy a cardboard cutout of ourselves for the crowd, as they did in Germany, I think people paid €19.

I guess some people may have just accounted for the money having left their account and be happy for it to be credited to the next season ticket, rather than having it refunded and spending it on beer?

Also, I wonder if the credit may be for a higher value than the cash sum?

I’m just happy to be getting something back that I didn’t expect . I know the club have said you can donate it to the Villa Foundation but I know a lot of people won’t necessarily have the cash to give . I fall in between as I know there’s lots of people more needy than me that I would like to continue helping but likewise help with next year’s season ticket is appreciated. I just bounced the club message back asking if we could do a half and half option . When BT sport cancelled the cost of their package you had the option of saving half the cost and giving the other 50% to NHS charities

That may be so Ad@m but we need to make sure we are ready for a fight. Players have let the club and fans down  especially over the last few games now they need to get us out of this mess.
That is what seems to have been missing in the previous part of the season. Well, that and the defensive organisation.
Oh, and the existence of Drinky.

And ball-retention.



Our lack of quality ball retention has been royally pissing me off all season. We are so sloppy and loose on way too many occasions, even on occasions when the opposition aren't closing us down and we are under very little pressure.

4 out of 1008 tested

Or 10 in the first week of tests as its the same people tested over and over.

Its not as they are expanding the number of tested at each club every time they test which is twice weekly

I'd be very careful voting for the season to continue if I was safe on PPG - all you need is 3 key players to test positive and with games in quick succession that could be enough to relegate you. The number of positive tests will guide this I think.

That's some pretty impressive commercialism right there.  Charging fans €19 to NOT attend games! Jesus!

I think they get to keep their own cardboard cut out though! (eventually)

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a fan driven venture.

There are some nasty human beings around.
Why would somebody tell Troy Deeney that they hope his son gets Coronavirus?
