aston villa 1 v manchester city 1


 
 
 
It seems an age ago already. A late Saturday afternoon at summer's end. We're up against the might of Manchester City, a team packed full of the world's best talent and coached by one, if not the best, coach ever.
 
They have a prodigious striker, Erling Haaland, set to light up the Premier League like none before. He scores. But still we fight on. And against the odds, Leon Bailey scores!!!!

Is this real? Have we taken a point?  The whistle blows and the crowd erupts.

cum on feel the noize!

 



Wolverhampton Art Gallery recently hosted an excellent exhibition devoted to Slade and other famous Midlands musicians including Goldie, Robert Plant, Cornershop, Capital Letters, Aisha, Pop Will Eat Itself and The Mighty Lemon Drops.
 
We visited and left feeling very nostalgic! So 'Cum on Feel the Noize!'
 
 
















aston villa 0 v west ham 1

 


It's a scorching hot summer afternoon at Villa Park. Everyone's up for the game, buoyed by victory against Everton in our last home outing.

Our opponents today are West Ham, languishing toward the bottom of the table and yet to score a goal. The sun is shining and what can possible go wrong?

It happens in the 74th minute. A deflected shot from Pablo Fornals and the ball nestles in the back of the Villa goal.

Oh dear! It shouldn't have ended this way at all.
