Great article Dave. I feel very flat today.

Your last line sums it up for me Purpletrousers, very well said.

Only just seen this. You hit the perfect note with it Dave.

Sometimes things just come to an end. I wouldn't necessarily blame the Manchester City player, and I certainly don't blame Dean. As of tomorrow we go back to being another struggling PL club, rather than a Bruce Springsteen song. The new fella might build something all of his own for us to believe in. Probably not, obviously.

Edit: I know that More than a Feeling isn't a Bruce Springsteen song. I meant the local boy doing good aspect feels like the narrative to one of his, before any smartarses chime in.

Dean Smith sacked and Jack Grealish on the bench for their biggest league game says it all really.

A little piece of perfection at a time when it feels lousy to be a Villa fan -and you see another Villa fan getting the chop.
