Hey all, I'm a relatively new Villa fan living in Arizona in the US. I started watching English football when the NHL was on lockout, and the following season my hockey team, the Coyotes, had a year about as abysmal as Villa's was this year. I definitely knew I didn't want to be a glory hunter, and anyone with any knowledge of Arizona sports knows we kind of have a resentment of big market, buy-your-championships type teams, as we are pretty much the little brother to Los Angeles in every sport. I pretty quickly got attached to Villa after, shamelessly, deciding they were going to be my team because I a) really liked their kits and b)had a really deep career mode on Fifa (yeah, I know) with them. So I picked them, stuck with my choice, and watched as much as I possibly could. I have followed every moment of the team over the last year and a half or so, and learned as much as I could. Bought the kit, studied the history, etc. I've also been casually stalking this forum over that period as well. Anyway, enough rambling. I'm glad to be here! UTV
