Kefkat is next for the Vital Villa interview.
1) When did you become a Villa fan and why?
Born in my blood and spoonfed the beautiful game and Villa. I am 4th generation Villa. My Great Grandfather started the Villa tradition from 1874
2) What is your favourite Villa moment of all time/most treasured memory?
Peter Withe winning goal in The European Cup
3) If you could bring back a former Villa player into this team (at his peak) who would it be and why?
Paul McGrath. No need to explain. God on earth
4) Paul Lambert? Your opinion please?
Wanted him and pleased RL went and got him. Like the direction and steadiness he is taking the club, even though there was scary times last season. Rome wasn’t built in a day.
5) Best and worst moments of last season?
Best: Sunderland 6-1 and De-Canio pay back was heaven on earth. Worst: Bradford and Chelsea results
6) Some say last season was a success, others not so much. What is your opinion?
We did the job. We stayed up. Was it a success?. It depends on how you gauge success. Success we want is winning cup/s and challenging for Europe. I believe they will come however go back to Rome wasn’t built in a day, it isn’t. We were starting again last season after 2 plus dire years depending how you see the MON years. There were scary times last season and I am glad it is over however I believe we are on the right track.
7) Your opinion of Randy Lerner and the board?
Always have been for RL. That opinion hasn’t changed, for me. Yes he has made mistakes which has been pretty scary for us however I do think he still loves Villa. He has had to do what he has had to do to bring us back into line re wages etc. It was unsustainable the way we were with wages. I did and do not want to be a club near bankruptcy like other teams have been. We can’t compete with the likes of City & Chelsea financially as the majority can’t however building a steady ship which we finally are doing I think will bring us back to where we want to be challenging and top 10. All will come given time. Microwave success doesn’t last. Even Man City couldn’t buy the title a second season on the row with all their money.
8) Which player/s should Villa sign this summer?
Leave that to PL and Villa to decide
9) Which player/s should Villa get rid of this summer?
The usual 1’s who are going anyway-Bent, Hutton, Ireland, Given and Dunne. Have I missed anyone? We all know who they are
10) Favourite current player?
Weimann
11) Who was your first footballing hero and who are your favourite all time player/s?
Andy Gray (That was then. I can’t stand the man as a person) McGrath, Deano Saunders, Laursen. Hell there are too many
12) What do you expect us to do/finish this season?
Prem: Mid table
FA Cup: Quarter final
Carling: Final
13) You can ask yourself any question you want to about Villa and what is your answer?
Will we ever win the FA cup again? I flipin hope so and in my lifetime
14) Just to change the theme slightly, a snap shot of you outside of football, answer or ignore at your leisure:

i) Best ever moment in your life: My wedding day to Mr Kefkat. It was the perfect day. A day as a family I could never have envisaged with the imploded mess after we left the ex 7 years before . The perfect day was 5/05/2007
j) Ambitions: To keep doing what I am doing which is? Oh to live too a ripe old age, bug the kids in my senior years (they would say I do now. Ha) Keep being of service to others, enjoy life and keep growing spiritually. Being part of my youngsters and their families lives and the joy of watching their lives and being their with them) Keep on enjoying being in a loving committed relationship with Mr K. Not materialistic ambitions. Money does not buy happiness. Tried it. It didn’t work.
k) Wise words: 1/ We met for a reason: Either your a blessing or a lesson. 2/ Religion is for those who are scared of going to hell. Spirituality is for those who have been their. (Think about it. It is true :o) )
