Sums up the past 40 years, then this season up nicely. It’s now our hope that this is the start of a prolonged period of success that the club hasn’t achieved in over 100 years.

With Unai at the helm it certainly feels possible, let’s Villa hope so.

It's the owners that have really made the difference and given us renewed hope.
They really believe we will be successful and it makes a refreshing change.
Long may NSWE (and the hope) continue.

We're easily the biggest club for over 100 miles in every direction. The potential is huge.
