Aston Villa away to Nottingham Forest match thread in the forum: Click Here
Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce has now held his pre game press conference ahead of the match against Nottingham Forest this weekend and he’s revealed we are close to a new signing. Villa make the trip to the City Ground on Saturday to face Nottingham Forest and their new manager Aitor Karanka and Bruce knows this is now a telling period when it comes to our hopes for promotion.

Villa go floppy in the Floccinaucinihilipilification Cup… In a week when Philippe Coutinho moved from Liverpool to Barcelona for £142m, a player very easily confused with Eden Hazard and a quite few others, it is impossible to have any sort of delusion as to the financial gulf between the Premier League and the Championship, and the predictable enervating affect upon any club which spends much time beyond the cut-off period of the parachute-payments in the second tier. Budgets get cut, the quality of players a club can attract declines and promotion gets increasingly more difficult. The gap between the newly promoted clubs and the established clubs gets wider. The club knows it and the Villa faithful know it. Everyone knows that the FA Cup is considered a bit of a chore these days, and I can’t see anyone pretending otherwise. Even the wondrous Wolves made six changes for their game against Swansea. So bearing all this in mind, my inner stoic Brummie, didn’t get too freaked out by Villa’s exit from the FA Cup.

Bit sad this video really… fallen giants. But then, we were greats, maybe one day we will be again. No matter what, Villa will be a great to me and I`m sure many of you! Crunch class this weekend v Nottingham Forest away. Two historic and proud clubs. It`s the era of football I think I preferred, anything was possible back then, now football has become £ootball run by people who really only care about the balance sheet and the few ‘top` clubs who boost their audience figures.

Aston Villa owner Dr Tony Xia has issued a rallying call to fans as we now find ourselves in the second half of the 2017/18 campaign. Villa go into this weekend’s tie with Nottingham Forest sitting inside of the Play Off positions in 5th place but a loss this weekend and victory for Sheffield United would see us drop out. Taking to Twitter yesterday, our owner felt that we had avoided a serious crisis and improved a lot, but even he admitted we weren’t doing as well as he hoped we would. Not the first time he’s said that either. Read more: Aston Villa Owner Issues Rallying Call

Never a good idea to talk about other clubs business, especially not on a mad place like twitter and even more especially not if they are above you by some way and having had them play us off the pitch this season. 😆

Thought for the day: What do you call a dinosaur with a extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus.
