Talking to an Albion fan today. He was old, guessing 60s/70s.

He said, "When I was younger the Albion didn't have the same rivalry with Wolves. It was Villa back then, I've never really liked Villa but I say fair play to them, I think you've got a real, genuine chance to win the league this season."

Was full of praise for Unai too.

Made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside  8)

It’s definitely the more historic derby. 3 FA Cup finals, and (I think) the first reported outbreak of football hooliganism, at the site of a social club called the Calthorpe. Note: not the Calthorpe Arms at the bottom of Wood Lane, which is still open and bedecked in Villa memorabilia.

Nice.

Btw he also rates Watkins highly and said Blues will 100% get the stadium built so just something to consider.
