" I hoped we’d seen the last of Villa getting a good win then starting the next match as though they only have to turn up to win; "

Spot on that. The other thing that infuriated me and those around me last night was Villa's inability to take a corner that beat the first man.

Well written and fair Dave.

A win, although it would have been great, would have been a tad harsh.

Still a point and we go again.
