Well we lost!!
We knew we weren't going to get 3 points so does it matter if it was 0-1 or 0-9!!
Nil punt is Nil punt!!
So now we carry on, away to Hull and home to Newcastle 4 points?
A win over Burnley and we have Arsenal away in the 5th round !! Exciting times!! :lol:

So I sign up on a genealogy forum and discover people discussing the baggies - excellent. And yes, time to move on - look ahead to the game at Hull, and be grateful that Robbo is available.

Personally i'm glad the "distraction" has ended.
Now we can concentrate on the main issue!! :lol:
Newcastle at home.No Shay Given.Micheal Owen injured again.Joey Barton out.

Wolves dropped two points against Norwich!! Promotion is not certain yet Mr Wolfman!!

January was a sad month for Villa fans with the passing of Johnny Dixon and Vic Crowe and if that wasn't enough
former Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Paul Birch died at the age of 46 after a long battle against bone cancer. Sad.

I'm still in shock!! :shock:
I don't think i've seen such bad defending since Good Shepherd beat St Francis 25-0 at Birchley Park!!
What on earth were they playing at? I'm on about the "Premier League Footballers" of West Brom not St Francis.
They were awful!!
Wolves lost to Coventry and Blues drew with Burnley.Who incidently are my tip for promotion.I've been impressed of late with Burnley!!Walsall drew away in the cold North East.
Villa won.Again.Top 2 maybe?
