I am "starting to believe" in this team, it's manager and all those supporting them.
Nice to hear the "pundits" speaking highly of our club for once
A day to pump out our chests and be proud......well done Villa

We're being praised highly from left, right and centre. It's bloody great.

Quite agree, Dave. I keep thinking 'we did well, considering/that was a good day/this or that made a difference/we were lucky' and looking more at how much we're distancing ourselves from the bottom than challenging for the top but finally I am starting to think we are quite good and Dean is getting to be quite a good manager.

Thank you Villa, I feel 10 foot tall, it has been a long time since I could say that.

I’m just the same, years of having hopes dashed mean I’m always looking for the cloud in the silver lining. It took less than 5 minutes yesterday to remind me that this is a different type of Villa team and club where the stars have aligned and we appear to have a top to bottom structure perfectly placed to keep on improving. That said I’ll be back to worrying by 5:00 pm tomorrow.
