Stoke...ha! Must stick in the craw of their lot, both clubs operating in different planes now.

That last line about hoping to add additional games....when would they squeeze them in (weekend Jul 31st/Aug 1st seems the only likely date)?

Last Stoke away was the game when our season took off - one nil half time (come on villa come on from the fans at Half time) before Adomah notched an equaliser (the Gordon Banks game)

Yep Scottish Cafu out for the season first half, Sweet Caroline at half time and apparently Deano lost it with them at half time, fantastic second half and deserved more than just the draw. Several very nice Titanic brews and oatcakes before and after, great day. 2 days later, Jack was back.

The fixture is still unconfirmed according to Walsall.

Seviila at home is our glamour friendly before the season kicks off, Villa at home is theirs.

1pm kickoff and travelling from  the North West should be fun.  Would have preferred a new ground but beggars can't be choosers.  Premier Coaches from Streetly it is then.

Christ, not them weirdos. Are they going to scrutinise our accounts before they let us play them?

I'm reminded of a high-up Villa official saying why we stopped sending teams to Small Heath and Smethwick for testimonials; "They kick our players and attack our supporters".

Tbf on their forum they want us to send our third team so that it's an even game.

Well seeing as the 2nd team pasted them in the league cup last season, that’s only fair I suppose.

Does anyone know if the Walsall game is definitely on or not - nothing on Walsall's website, nay impossible to contract either club at the moment.
