Summary of the first week in the 2nd season: Round 1 There was a lot of hype around Villa’s first game this season, at home against PSV, but instead we fell to the Dutch side. 3-0 was a loss tough to take, but given that 3 of the debutants were defenders, the chemistry is bound…

Aston Villa players relaxing in the hotel, ready to go to the training ground. Micah Richards- Tomas, switch on the TV mate, we all want to watch the Top 100 preview for the opening game today. Tomas Kalas- Sure captain, I’m onto it. Gabriel Agbonlahor- I heard the Chievo Verona boss was selling some mug.…

9 new signings have joined the club since the last post. We introduce them now to the swathe of reporters at Villa Park: Connor Wickham, as announced earlier, was one of our signings. Just 22, he brings with him the youthful promise that made me spend 5 million on him. He will be the English…

6 new signings made their way to Aston Villa yesterday. They are talked about below. Robert Hodorogea, the Romanian, joined us from Viitorul Constanta with Tommie Hoban and Riccardo Calder going the other way. 82-rated and 20 years of age, he will fit well into our youth team for seasons to come.  Martin Ollson, the…

With the league already wrapped up in Division 3, one might think that there is nothing to look forward to ahead of the last game, but that is not the case. 7 teams are still in the running for the promotion play-offs and 6 teams can still get relegated, making it an exciting last day.…

The stage is set. On Wednesday, 32 teams will battle it out in order to progress to the Round of 16 of the Inaugural Top 100 Youth Cup. Who will triumph tomorrow? It’s a rare rest day for the experienced heads who will all be in the crowd cheering the under-21s. The managers are all…

A quirk of the fixture schedule means we are due to play 6 English teams in our last eight games, which means less traveling and more rest/training in the business end of the season, which no doubt benefits us. That run of games starts today with a tie against the Potters, managed by Muz Muz.…

The Inaugural Youth Cup will kick off next week. Much hype about it. To add to things, it came full with the live sponsored draw by the Kinnearo Company and AC Milan. Beddows was in charge of handling the draw, and some really high-class work done there. With Justin Bieber crooning away, Villans were nervous…

Well, Gana did save us a point in the dying minutes of the game, an 80th minute equaliser which earned him the MOTM award. The fans applauded him as he walked off the pitch, great to see they still love him. Should have won the game though, had way more shots but just couldn’t convert…
