Small sacrifice for seeing the Villa

I keep looking at the clock thing “well, it’s only another 3 hours from now, you can do that” but I felt like rubbish on Monday so I’m going to play it by ear.

Going to bed is the sensible option, there is absolutely no need to stay up tonight to watch this one.

I rarely go to bed before 1am so not an issue to stay up a bit later.

I'm in bed with what appears to be Covid, so I'll be trying to stay awake and probably failing.

What a save that was by Olsen, for me that's his best 90 mins since he came to Villa.

You utter, utter barstool.
For a minute I thought I'd missed most of the game.
Many years ago I called you 'Tonto', you thought it was racist but it was Portuguese for 'fool/idiot/silly'.
Just when I thought you'd lost the title..ah bugger, see you later! ;)

Can't remember the last time I was this nervous about a friendly game other than Leeds in 75.
