Good piece Dave, I'm beginning to believe that this current Villa side is a team to be feared.

Summed up nicely.  We are better without Grealish at the club.  Which I'll admit I thought was impossible a month ago.

Good read Dave.
Sadly I will not be one of the 25,000 plus Villa fans who will proclaim in a few years “ I was there”.

Great read and you have expressed how I feel about this win - I know it’s probably the same for everybody else, but it is cracking writing, thanks.
