Yesterday (Sunday) I really truly thought we would get a replay against Manchester United. Because for a few minutes, I had drifted off into laa laa land where miracles happened the world was perfect, everything went my way.
Milan Baros is crap for Villa, but i was ready to forgive all his misgivings for the season, (One goal all season before this game) when he popped up with the equaliser. I didn't even mind that I was going to lose £20 as I had put a bet on Manchester United to win 1-0 (yeah I know, some Villa fan I am) but what the hell was I thinking.
This is Aston Villa we're talking about, I don't even know why I bother, it's the same thing every single season. They have dissapointed me so much in recent years. Someone asked me a question the other day. As i'm constantly reminded everyday, Birmingham City are currently sitting pretty at the top of the Championship. My friend asked me whether I would prefer to be winning every week in the championship or treading water in the Premiership. I said i'd rather be in the Premiership, it's the top division it's where you need to be. But when you're Aston Villa, it's where you build up hope only to crush it down. Rethinking my answer i'd rather win every week. For the good of the club it's better to stay in the premiership, but for the good of me, i'd rather be winning every week.
I'm praying that Randy Learner will provide the finance and Martin O Neil will provide the players to restart our season and not doom us to yet another season of crap.............utter crap.
