Who is looking forward to the villa or are we going to miss our mates from the north east
Local rivalries have always played a huge part in the history of football.Looking forward to playing anyone in the Championship, be it Villa, Leeds, Sheff Wednesday, Birmingham, Forest, Derby, Millwall, Brentford et al.
We really do need to move on from this one sided Villa nonsense.
The 1979 draw was my one and only visit to Villa, I was 10 y/o and withDefinitely not.
I still have the mental scars from 1970s/80s/early 90s visits to VP, when we lost every one except one draw when Garry Thompson scored an equaliser (1979?)
I missed the 2 wins there as I was convinced I was the jinx.
I did go again twice in late 90s - we lost again, of course.
I was at that game sure it was then Graham Oakley got injured and never played again and I think we went 1-0 up in the 89th minute giving us hope of a Villa Park victory at last only for Villa to go straight back up and equalise.The 1979 draw was my one and only visit to Villa, I was 10 y/o and with
my Dad and Brother.
Can’t remember how and when the goals came but I might have a hazyI was at that game sure it was then Graham Oakley got injured and never played again and I think we went 1-0 up in the 89th minute giving us hope of a Villa Park victory at last only for Villa to go straight back up and equalise.
Because we lost too often against them!Local rivalries have always played a huge part in the history of football.

Really glad our young supporters are going to get a chance to visit some of these teams.
My son was really young last time we were in the Championship so he saw us play a lot of these teams but only at home. Lower leagues have been great but there will be some big fixtures next season.
Agreed. I remember back in the day being fed up of being stuck in the Championship. Now having come out of it in the wrong direction the teams in it seem massive in comparison to what we've been playing every week. Looking forward to each and every game.Looking forward to playing anyone in the Championship, be it Villa, Leeds, Sheff Wednesday, Birmingham, Forest, Derby, Millwall, Brentford et al.

The compensation will probably be lower if they're a Championship team. Win win.Villa relegation or staying up I don't mind, whichever makes if more likely to get o hare
Loads of places we'll get that, the one that stands out is Blackburn but it's a bit of a trek.which ground will be the new "MK Dons" most will give us 3-4k if needed

I'm hoping Fulham don't go up so we can FINALLY play them.
One sided silly nonsense. 60-70’s “rivalry” was Wolves, 80’s and 90’s was Villa, 2000’s was Leicester and now it seems to be Sunderland more than anyone else. About time we made our mind up who our “rivals” are.Local rivalries have always played a huge part in the history of football.
