In the spare minutes I have here and there I've been trying to finish the original Super Mario Bros. on the Switch. Bringing back all the memories and also how much touch I've lost. Those Hammer Bros. man...

What a kick in the balls.

I have a good feeling about this one, so no doubt we’ll lose by 3 goals.

Dunk contest should have either gone to Gordon or been a tie. He got jobbed. But at least it was entertaining. 3 point contest was also decent and thought the deep shot worked well. Skills challenge is meh.

Looking at his stats I can't see anything on WhoScored.com that stands out. He did make 3 "Key Passes" which was more than anyone else on the pitch. Not sure if he gets a higher ratings boost for that because he is a defender.

Green's assist against Stoke Hogan's goal against Bristol

TVV was my favourite podcast out there and replaced the void left by the Aston Villa Review ceasing a few years back. Will have to give either Claret & Blue or Lamp a go. Enjoying The Athletic podcast, MOMS not my cup of tea.

Some of the younger players may have a club option for an extra year. Not sure but it will be interesting to see what happens there. Elmo signed a 1 year extension early in the season, so he will be here next year unless sold.

I'm a Hertha supporter, but if my level of support for Villa is 100, then my support for Hertha is probably no more than a 5. I have no **** idea what's going on there. And yes, Piatek was their record signing.

Andre Drummond traded for a bunch of junk. Sad ending to his time in the Motor City. Meanwhile we still have the likes of Rose & Morris on the books. The reluctance to blow it up and start again is very frustrating.

Did Klopp turn up for the replay?

Losing with 5 minutes to go of extra time. O'Hare with the assist for the goal that could put them through.

They're going to end up being the London Jags aren't they?!

"The STL Battlehawks are my favourite squadron"

@Xela loses 54 points for falling asleep and missing the end of the Superbowl.

After putting his body on the line for the club like he did last season and throughout the Championship years I think he's earned the right to leave if he wants regular football.
