I will,... http://www.gaznet.com/archives/001091.htm Villa thrashed Burnley 5-2 on Sunday afternoon.

Still, a point is better than none. Earlier today, Villa drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace in the FA Cup... http://www.gaznet.com/archives/001089.htm Villa drew 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspur over the weekend.

Anyway, on to more... http://www.gaznet.com/archives/001085.htm I watched Daybreakers at the cinema on Saturday evening, which I was quite looking forward to seeing considering the reviews I'd read, but I didn't enjoy it at all. It's needlessly gory and the ending is a bit daft too.... http://www.gaznet.com/archives/001084.htm I was at Villa Park on Saturday afternoon to watch Villa beat Brighton 3-2 in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
