Noticeable Cornell tried to "Martinez" Rashford yesterday before the penalty. He then got out-thought in the end.

A lot of the villa supporter coaches (including the one I was on) had to get a police escort away from Preston, as quite a few coaches had their windows smashed in by Preston fans. So they obviously didn’t listen to the Villa instructions to feck off home anyway

That does surprise me. They all seemed a friendly bunch to me but I guess they have their share of idiots too.

I thought that but then a weird one tried squaring up to me on the walk back to town shouting 'HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE IN COVENTRY'S SHADOW'. One of the odder interactions I've had at the football.

What did you reply with? "Better than in Bury's mate and they don't even exist anymore".

Yeah and I quite like that he puts forward challenging arguments a lot.

His piece today very much does that.
