Right…this stuff celebrating the demise of Villa. Just stop and get over your chronic dislike
for a moment and consider why it would be a good thing if they stayed up. It’s very easy to
travel to their ground and therefore less tiring a fixture than say Newcastle or Norwich. It’s
easy for us to acclimatize to local weather conditions because they are the same as ours. It’s a good thing to have as large a pool of local teams as possible concentrated in a small geographic area as it makes transfers, derby rivalry, local heroes, a bigger slice of the national media coverage, a buzzing vibrant feel about the area all possible. It gives the area
an identity on a par with the London – North West areas. 6 easy points per season…we could cancel the pre-match warm up and stroll down the road to theirs..stuff them…and be
back in time for a traditional fish supper EVERY season…and if we had Dingles, Blues, Coventry, Walsall (?) as well we could get 18 points every season without breaking sweat.
bottom line is The Albion are a West Midlands club and the more teams we have in the local
area the better it is for us in countless ways…..O.K.?
