Just thought I'd tell you a bit about the club.
Aston Villa Football Club was founded in 1874. They are known as 'the Villans' or just simply as 'Villa'.
They play their home games at Villa Park in Birmingham, a fantastic 42,500 all-seater stadium with an excellent training set-up and state-of-the-art youth setup and academy.
During this season we will be playing in the Barclays Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and EURO Vase/EURO Cup.
Their home kit is a traditional mix of claret and blue. Their away kit is a mix of black and sky blue.
The chairman is American billionnaire Randy Lerner. Their main rivals are Birmingham City, one of the most famous and traditional rivalries in England. They also have a fierce rivalry with West Bromwich Albion, who are actually geographically closer. We will meet them this season!
They also have rivalries with Coventry, Wolves and Leicester.
Club legends and icons include Peter Withe, Paul McGrath, Juan Pablo Ángel, Randy Lerner, Charles Krulak, Martin O'Neill, Gordon Cowans and Olof Mellberg.
They have won the Premiership in 1894, 1896, 1897, 1899, 1900, 1910 and 1981. With them now failing to win the Premiership for win the Premiership for 27 years, lets end that soon!
I will be showing you the full squad, and giving you an idea of what we want to achieve, as well as showing you my new signings and who I want to buy!
