A stunning volley from local boy Jack Grealish saw Villa defeat Cardiff City 1-0 at Villa Park on Tuesday evening. While this much needed win might not be enough to help Villa secure automatic promotion come the end of the season, you’d imagine that it has gone an awful long way to sealing a coveted […]
Bruce was furious after Villa’s 3-1 defeat to Norwich on Saturday afternoon, and rightfully so. The defending for two of the three goals was poor, there was no attacking prowess, and Bruce’s men got exactly what they deserved from the match – absolutely nothing. Since their 4-1 win over Wolves, his side has gone off […]
Aston Villa picked up a very easy three points on Tuesday evening when they brushed Reading aside 3-0 at Villa Park. Villa dominated from the start, but Reading’s defense was resolute (and somewhat lucky) and they somehow managed to go in at the break all square. However, the deadlock was broken just two minutes into […]
Aston Villa got back to winning ways on Tuesday night with an easy 3-0 win over Reading at Villa Park. If truth be told, it was actually one of the most one-sided games you will ever see in the Championship. Villa dominated from the start and Reading’s plight was not helped when David Edwards was […]
After Saturday’s boring 0-0 draw against Hull, not even the most optimistic of Villa fans will think that they might still be in with a chance of clinching the final automatic promotion spot. Since the 4-1 demolition of Wolves, Villa have only picked up one point from three matches and this has left them 9 […]
If Aston Villa’s hopes of automatic promotion weren’t over before, they almost certainly are now thanks to their disappointing 0-0 draw away to Hull at the KCOM Stadium. Villa were slightly the better team on the day, but they just could not find a way past a stubborn Hull defence, well marshalled by the excellent […]
Thanks to the international break, Steve Bruce and his players have had two long weeks to dwell on their damaging defeats to QPR and Bolton after an easy win against league leaders Wolves. These defeats have left Villa 7 points adrift of automatic promotion, and in the eyes of many Villa supporters, a play-off place […]
Aston Villa can kiss goodbye to automatic promotion thanks to yet another totally inept performance against what can only be described as a very average Bolton side. For the second game in a row, the Villa players just did not turn up against lesser opposition, and if they continue to play like this until the […]
Aston Villa’s bid for automatic promotion took a severe blow on Tuesday evening when they were overturned 3-1 at Villa Park by QPR. This poor showing, coupled with Cardiff City’s comfortable victory over Brentford, has left Villa 7 points adrift of an automatic promotion spot, with just 27 points left to play for. Therefore, in […]
Aston Villa’s automatic promotion hopes were dealt a severe blow as they were defeated by QPR 3-1 at Villa Park on Tuesday evening. After the 4-1 defeat of Wolves at the weekend, many expected this to be a routine win for Steve Bruce’s men, but they inexplicably decided not to show up and were soundly […]
Aston Villa kept their promotion hopes well and truly on track at the weekend when they dispatched league leaders Wolves 4-1 at Villa Park. It was a result that even the most optimistic of Villa fans wouldn’t have predicted, but it is one that leaves Villa just seven points off first place with 10 games […]
With just ten games remaining, we have well and truly reached the business end of the season. Here, I take a look at Villa’s remaining fixtures and predict how many points they’ll have come the 6th May. QPR (H) – Tuesday 13th March: QPR have had a pretty poor season and have one of the […]
