    Another interesting fact about Aston Villa. The club was formed by a team of cricket players looking to do something to keep themselves fit during the winter.

    That is interesting.

    Another one is they were the original purveyors of the claret and blue kit.

    Burnley and West Ham copied them.

    I'd imagine Villa being an older club than either of the others though.

    Aren't Villa the oldest club? Or oldest professional club or oldest club with no name changes or something.

    They're very old anyway.

    Even more interesting, I take kids down to their indoor academy area for 5-a-side football over the autumn/winter months. The tea-lady Bev does some lovely scones (from the local Greggs near One Stop)

    1-0 and dominating possession. I'd take that scoreline and the 3pts now - but it's making nervous viewing.
