Alastair Campbell Summarises The Aston Villa Game

Because pain has no memory, I have forgotten most of the game already. In particular, the six-minute spell during which Aston Villa scored three goals. Yes, three in six. And all three of them enough to make manager Brian Laws wonder what he has to do to make his players do the simple things well.

Things like not bumping into each other, as Andre Bikey and Chris Eagles did, in giving Villa the opening that led to the first of the three. Or sticking a leg out, as Leon Cort could have done to stop the second of the three going in. Or not capitulating, which is how it felt as Villa stormed forward to get the last of the three. Three in six. I can't remember the last time I saw that any more than I can remember the last time we took the lead away from home - was it Man City away, a manager and many months ago?
