"Petrov from the halfway line...."
Derby 0-6 Aston Villa.
A game which could easily have fizzed out top a nothing draw proved to be worth the £35 ticket price. 6 different scorers, including 2 good goals from Gabby and 'The Hare.' MON is beginning to prove me wrong with £4 million signing of Harewood, certainly a great super sub.
Whilst drinking at The Harvester I sent a text to my football mates wishing them the best of luck in a local league game they were playing Saturday afternoon. Saturday evening I found out they lost, and were in need of a keeper next season (where my best position is). Whilst out drinking again in the evening I was having a friendly pressure put on me to start playing again, and it got me thinking....
Yesterday probably cost me £100 including beer money, train and match ticket, but I didn't mind paying that when you are there to see Petrov score goals like he did. Half way line straight into the top corner is something you don't see every season, and the moment he hit it I started to celebrate, just knew it was in. Anyway, money cannot buy you feelings like that. I know if I started playing football again I would have different feelings money can't buy, but travelling away to see your team win 6-0 makes all the lows seem worth it.
Yesterday was only the 3rd time I had seen Villa win away, and first time they kept a clean sheet. I just hope for something similar next week, as Intertoto is a must, and our season is not about doing B*rm*ngham twice. It's about getting 6 points off them, sending them down AND hitting Europe. We have no Cahill this year... maybe Salifou could step forward with some acrobatics???
