Thanks Roy,

A degree of 'big club' entitlement seeping through there.

Remind you of anyone?

Amazing that a team like Villa with a population more than twice the size of Sheffield can't fill the ground for a holiday fixture.

Not a happy lot are they?

They need to drop the billy big *******s chip on the shoulder, they'll be in the Championship for many a year.

A fair few billy big balls in there. Loads of we should be beating these average teams etc etc. They need a wake up call and a reminder that THEY are also an average championship team.

I don’t have a problem with those comments.
With their size and their squad, they SHOULD be beating funny little old clubs like us.
Fortunately, football don’t work like that.

Respectfully disagree. For all their history they were in Division 3 not long ago and were a joke Prem club for many years before their inevitable relegation. They won't go up this season.

Sorry SBT, I probably should have put a after my comments as they were meant to be slightly sardonic.
I like the idea that supporters of certain “big” clubs think they SHOULD beat “smaller” clubs. It’s so much more fun when they don’t.
It smacks of arrogance and reminds me of a nearby “massive” club who have a very expensively assembled squad. How much sweeter it is to beat a team whose supporters think we “shouldn’t”.
