    If our opportunities are not taken, then you will be right, Canary.

    EPL (Premier League), Saturday 18/01/2020 : Brighton and Hove Albion v Aston Villa, KO 15:00 hours.

    14/01/2020 : Once again AVFC has a run of three EPL games that provides the opportunity to get away from the relegation zone.


    Sat 18/01/2020 : Brighton and Hove Albion v Aston Villa
    Tue 21/01/2020 : Aston Villa v Watford - KO changed to 19:30 hours
    Tue 28/01/2020 : FLC6 Aston Villa v Leicester City - SKY 19:45 hours
    Sat 01/02/2020 : Bournemouth v Aston Villa


    It is essential that these opportunities are taken, despite our injury situations. These are the problems the Manager is paid to solve, so please do your duty, Dean ... and I hope my prediction has not jinxed matters !

    My AVF prediction, made today : Brighton and Hove Albion 1-3 Aston Villa

    Draws all around today, so AVFC stay 18th. The points and GD gaps against our next opponents remain unchanged (both = 1).
    Jack Grealish's equaliser was a belter ... great late save from Pepe Reina too.

    League Cup Round 6 (Semi-Final 2nd leg), Tuesday 28/01/2020 :

    Aston Villa 2-1 Leicester City (1-1) (Agg 3-2)

    The desired (and maybe unexpected) result.
    Well done to the lads for overcoming our opponents (and the doubters amongst our friends too !) and reaching the League Cup Final.
    The Final on March 1st will provide the opportunity to augment AVFC's proud record in the League Cup and overall too.

    Without seeing the game it is hard to tell if this result reflected the play. In any event it is not good and AVFC have conceded the double to Bournemouth too. At least AVFC are not in the bottom 3 tonight, just out at 17th.

    Attendance : 10,722 (SSN)

    After this result AVFC's total Form Points fell from 40 to 38 ... that is, points after 38 games.
    The maximum available is now 64 points, with 39 points left to play for.
    AVFC are below par and 17th in the table, with 25 points and GD at -15 from 25 games.

    14/02/2020 : Man City have been fined £30m and banned from Europe for 2 years by UEFA today.

    Despite this, AVFC will have to win the League Cup Final to qualify for Europe next Season.
    If we lose the Euro place will go to the team in 6th or maybe 7th place in the EPL.
    In any event, it will not be Man City. So much for their Sheikh and his State Aid. Karma.

    EPL (Premier League), Sunday 16/02/2020 : Aston Villa 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur

    No matter how thorough it may be, all the pre-match planning cannot prevent an individual error, especially in the last minute of the game.

    Attendance : 41,874 (SSN)

    After this result AVFC's total Form Points fell from 38 to 37 ... that is, points after 38 games.
    The maximum available is now 61 points, with 36 points left to play for.
    AVFC are below par and 17th in the table, with 25 points and GD at -16 from 26 games.

    So many errors by both teams but one can't say they weren't trying!
