Be a cracking away day up there in August. Bring every last fucker on, couldn't careless who we play or when, this is a new Villa.
That is a totally out of character post for you. Normally you are the epitome  of pessimism.😊

If you can't be excited by this side and this manager then you're a tough crowd to please.

Flip the fixtures on their head and there's no way you'd look forward to playing us- as it should be. With that home form too, hopefully grand old Villa Park being a glorious but comfortable place to come and play a game has gone too.

Everton at home on the 19th. Hmm! Can get a flight  from Perpignan to BHX and back for that. Wahey!
Hang on! In my euphoria, I forgot that the TV bastards will probably move this to a Monday or something. *Shuts Ryanair app down, gloomily*

Everton @ home will be a Sunday due to the Conference League play off, I believe

The worst thing about having Newcastle on the first game of the season is that every time I google Villa I'll get 10 results from The Mag obsessing over us.

It's bad enough when it's mid-season and just a few weeks either side of the fixture, but now it'll be months.

Not sure what I read as thought it was all a week earlier than it actually is. That's inconvenient for me

ROFL, so true there was even an article on Purslow leaving, because he’d mentioned them in that interview with Beth Rigby.

We'll go there and fuck the fuckers and the Toon will be straight into a mini crisis on the first day of the season.

Don't mind playing Newcastle first game, I look forward to the opportunity of pissing on their parade. They'll be expecting top 4 as standard now and I wouldn't mind giving them a reality check.

Newcastle have us, Man City (a), Liverpool, Brighton (a). There's been gentler starts.

I saw the one of them going on about him mentioning them, but not the second one I am glad to say. I'm careful not to click on anything from them!

Absolutely right about this team of ours. We have been scoring a la mancity. Never known a period even in 80/81 when we kicked off and within 10 mins or so we score and we do so by just moving the ball in quick concise way. I would love what we have witnessed to continue this coming season.

According to my calculations, we will be lifting the trophy on May 3rd. Probably worth booking the train tickets now.

That's the inner Brummie whispering "but what if it was all just a blip of exceptional form?". But then that gets shouted down by who our manager is. He's so meticulous, luck doesn't come into it. This has to be one of the most exciting times in my Villa supporting career. Its all on a plate for us, no better manager, owners, good players, money to spend. If not now, it's never.

Absolutely. If we can't win anything in the next few seasons with all the things we have going for us, football is over as a competition.
