It was only a training session. A last minute change for a pre-season friendly cancelled for Covid-19 , but how good did it feel to be back amongst our Villa family!
So many lives have been lost to this horrible virus. We mourn for those bereft. We salute the workers of the NHS for their enduring courage, compassion and dedication. We salute those who kept our country running in the worst health crisis in living memory - the shop-workers, the tradesmen, the taxi-drivers, the bin-men and so many more. And we salute the brilliant scientists who have delivered in record time the vaccine that provides us all with a life-line.
And now, for one brief moment we come together. It was only a training session. But we embraced life and the hope of normality to come.
