Does anyone know why #AVFC wore the Betano strip? I thought that we had to use the charity sponsor in UEFA competitions because gambling advertising isn’t allowed?

Did any of the commentators from last night go with: “They think it’s Alobah… it is now!” #avfc There’s a freebie for your next article on him @matkendrick.bsky.social

Well, the easy part is over and what a credit to #AVFC to take advantage of its league draw and finish second. FYI - 6 of Villa’s 8 opponents finished from 25 to 36th position, so we really had no excuses not to qualify, but finishing second puts us in the drivers seat for the knockouts 👏👏👏 UTV

I’m loving the care we are getting from the referee. This is what it must feel like to be one of the Commercial 6 in the EPL. #AVFC

A goal for the first team made in the youth team. Love to see it! #avfc

Defenders scoring, academy graduates scoring, what next? Harvey Elliott? #avfc

Quiet game from Mings tonight #AVFC

I hope Douglas Luiz signed before he was able to watch this 😕 #AVFC

All I can say is: we had better not pick up any injuries this game.😡 Already worried about Ollie Watkins. #AVFC

Oh Mings! 🤦🏻‍♂️ More generally, I can’t say that this wasn’t a growing risk Maybe this will wake us up. #AVFC

The collective inexperience of #AVFC is showing - poor decisions and silly mistakes. Not a criticism - this is a good game to be working through this, but the old heads in the side need to exert more influence. So far only Onana looks like he knows what he is doing.

I didn’t think we should risk Onana tonight, but my god he is holding this team together like a puppet master Forgive the cliche but he is head and shoulders above anyone else right now. #AVFC

So it looks like our opening plan of getting into scoring positions and firing shots on target has been converted into one of passing around the back and turning it over in threatening positions in the midfield. Great double save from Martinez #AVFC

Blimey, you’d think Sancho and Elliott had never played together before 🤦🏻‍♂️ #AVFC

Dammit! Of all the weeks to have benched Harvey Elliot in my #FPL team 🤦🏻‍♂️ #AVFC

Soon we won’t be able to play a team in Europe without it being an #AVFC reunion. I knew Diaby wouldn’t be staying in Saudi for long

So, if the Dougie deal falls through, who’s up for Weston McKennie? #AVFC

A clean sheet victory at St James Park! Bloody brilliant. Not gonna lie, I spent most of the second half hugging my dog. Worth it. Always love seeing Ollie Arthur George Watkins on the scoresheet 💜💙 UTV #AVFC

I’m enjoying seeing Leon Bailey back in the claret and blue. #AVFC

How do you get 5000 away fans to out sing St James Park? This is how. #AVFC

Ollie Watkins! You are too hard on yourself and you drive me crazy but I love you so much! He has not lost his movement off the ball. #AVFC

I am hoping this isn’t a long term issue for Youri. #AVFC

How that wasn’t a foul on Tielemans, I’ll never know #AVFC

That was promising from Bailey! #AVFC

Fingers crossed for the Buendiafication of Leon Bailey 🤞 #AVFC

Ollie mate, don’t give up! #AVFC

Sometimes Ollie has the most sublime first touch. Other times… 🫣 #AVFC

Martinez must’ve been practising those high balls #AVFC

Good man, Ezre 🙌 #AVFC

Sancho and Onana hunting in packs #AVFC

Joelinton is getting a 2-for-1 deal on those yellow cards #AVFC

Those #AVFC away fans are all I can hear through the TV right now…

Joelinton back to his normal tricks… did you even see the ball that time? #AVFC

Emi fucking Buendía with another unsustainable fucking goal! Stick that xG up your arse, Michael Bridges #AVFC

Say what you like about Emi Martinez, he’s who you want in goal for those one v one situations. #AVFC

So sick of the TV commentators crapping on about xG… Especially when they act like they’re the only ones who have looked at this so-called “stat” When a team like #AVFC is “outperforming” xG… or Newcastle is “underperforming” xG, it means either xG is bogus - or you’re interpreting it incorrectly🤦🏻‍♂️

One of my kids brought home a 12-string guitar and was explaining to me how it was different from a 6-string… “So they’re like normal guitars, but these go up to 12?”, I asked. #dadjokes #spinaltap

Oh wow! Midtjylland stuttered and only drew with Brand, so now we’re 2nd!! Fuck the top 8 - we’re going for that top 2 finish! #UTV #AVFC (Means we’d play the away leg first in the knock out stages)

Bizot is immense! Let’s all remember how we felt last year when Martinez did not play. #AVFC

Marco Bizot man of the match, by a mile #AVFC

Well played lads. A few scary moments but this was a job well done in a hostile environment so far away from home 👏👏👏 #AVFC

Bizot is immense! Let’s all remember how we felt last year when Martinez did not play. #AVFC

Ok lads - that is what we call A FUCKING WAKE UP CALL #AVFC

Well fuck. Put your hand up if you didn’t see this coming. #AVFC

Jesus. Durán would have scored for Fenerbahce if he’d been in that position. #AVFC

Aargh! Just put it in the fucken net! #AVFC

Is that a goal?? I think VAR will find an offside. #AVFC

Im not too unhappy with the ref overall, but that body check… A more blatant foul you will never see. #AVFC

Great save from Bizot, but how wasn’t that flagged offside? #AVFC

Aargh! Just put it in the fucken net! #AVFC
