If Villa are going to do something special at home against Nottingham Forest tonight, then we’re going to have to do it during a really bad run of form.
Good form is usually a sign that good things are happening at a football club. It affects everything. You can even lose the odd game and still be in good form, believe it or not.
A last-minute goal, a reckless challenge, or conceding a penalty can cost you a match, but the overall performance and feeling around the team can still be positive. Right now though, we feel a long way from that.
The mood around the Villa fans feels strained. People want to be positive about tonight’s game, but there is real concern there as well, and I feel it too.
Hopefully, we can produce something tonight that gets talked about for years to come. We will just have to wait and see. UTV
