  1. It is indeed. See Genesis chapter 9 verses 8 to 17 for more details.
  2. Arsenal scoring in the seventh of the six minutes of injury time.
  3. I would have settled for some kind of jump with an arm out!
  4. Only time will give us the proper perspective but I think the first half today was a good illustration of the pessimistic point of view (in terms of title chances). Winning when there is the prospect of improvement is great though. This manager won’t use the result to justify the things that were not so good. But really this is nit picking. I am thrilled at how we got the job done today.
  5. A bit like Grealish, gives him a chance to “see how we do things here”.
  6. Perhaps, but the fan representatives won’t be able to say anything until the minutes are out a couple of months after the stand has been built.
  7. The Athletic article purports to be an update but I don’t think it tells us anything we didn’t already know. The club are a bit quiet on it all mind.
  8. I have to say I am glad it wasn’t. Half the ground would be in the, er, “style” of the current Trinity.
  9. The club saying “it’s legal so it’s fine” is nonsense. Nightclubs are legal. They’re still too loud.
  10. The U21s resolved their shorts colour clash with Swansea by wearing the blue shorts with the home shirt. Looks so much better than the all claret worn by the first team against Alkmaar, a much nicer balance of colours.
  11. I noticed that Emery was wearing the same one.
  12. A bit concerning that Heck wasn’t wearing a Villa tie. Unless he wants to change the colours of course…
  13. I have a feeling the number of non-corporates on the Holte is still enough to fill Bournemouth’s ground and leave some outside. If the atmosphere is bad, corporate hospitality is not the reason in my view.
  14. Non-elite (but working hard to get there) team in “not quite as good away as at home” shock!
  15. We’ve played worse than this and won. There have been enough chances for us to win on a day when things are going our way.
  16. My Grandad used to tell me about chats with Brian over the counter in the club shop after Brian retired as a player. A different world!
  17. It annoys me that we talk of premier league goals rather than just league goals. Agbonlahor is a mere footnote when you have Harry Hampton out on 242 or something. edit: sorry, it was 215 in the league and 242 in all competitions. 2 short of Billy Walker on 244 in all competitions.
  18. When Gerrard appointed McGinn as captain, it somehow seemed the wrong fit. Now, under Emery, he seems the perfect fit.
  19. It’s these straight passes through the middle of the pitch that get me going. Just not something we’ve really seen done well at Villa in the past. There are passages of play where we are making the game look easy.
  20. Once again I couldn’t help noticing how much he celebrated when we scored.
