I'm heading to live in Albania for a bit in September. I'm led to believe that the cost of living is very favourable.

And if only VAR had done it’s job Arsenal game would have ended 2-2.

Would it?
Yes. Jorginho’s goal would have been disallowed.

.If we're getting into it, Martinez cost us one on goal difference after going up for a corner selfishly. He disobeyed orders.
I suspect that his shenanigans are one of the reasons why I wouldn't be surprised if he moved due to underlying relationship issues with Emery.
There's been an over compensation on how much he wants to be here and that to anyone who knows is pure spin to  keep his status at Villa.
If he goes off to Pochettino and Chelsea I don't think people be so fond of him will they.
And that is not impossible.

How many points has he saved us though? These sort of obsessions of single moments/incidents in a season are utterly pointless. See the Sheffield Utd non-goal the season we stayed up.

What relationship problems with Emery are you talking about? You are guessing or making this shit up, it's so boring

Not at all. From everything I've seen it's a beautiful country. The south coast is 20 minutes from Corfu. I'm looking forward to it!

Are you some distant Habsberg relative that they keep sending to random locations to claim the throne? I didn't particularly notice the jaw when we met.

I am currently traveling through Albania and in Himare. It's pissing down. It's the second time I have toured this country and it's more expensive than 2 years ago but still cheap. The countryside is beautiful and people very friendly. I prefer it to Montenegro which is also out of the Shengen. Cheapest diesel so far is Croatia though at £1.07

I reckon it's places with non-extradition treaties with the UK...next stop Northern Cyprus!

My Dad was in the Signals and was posted to Cyprus in the 50’s.
He took some photos of an abandoned village in what became ‘no man’s land’. Clothes hung on the line, no time to get them, that sort of stuff.
About 60 years later he managed to get back to the same village. Still no man’s land, but the authorities allow people in now. He stood in the same spot and took some photos. Clothes still hung on the line, albeit now rags and all the other stuff unmoved between weeds. It really was surreal.
He said it sent a shiver down his spine

An article titled "Which Premier League teams can secure European football?", and we don't even get a mention, except to say we are 1 point behind Brighton, but no discussion of any kind.
Like MOTD,  there does seem to be some kind of sub-conscious bias against giving Villa any credit for anything.

Fucking hell. It's like they can't bring themselves to mention our name!

"What about the Europa Conference League? That place is almost certain to go to one of the teams already mentioned."

Where they didn't mention Brentford at all, but then go on to say how they've still got a 1% chance!
