BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) - Well, well, well, well. In a scene not to unfamiliar with US baseball fans, the mad cap Aston Villa owner this season stepped up to the plate, called his shot, AND HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK!!!!!!
The club has achieved every goal that Bliss set for his side in gaining promotion to the premiership and maintaining, albeit perhaps sometimes precariously, a positive bank balance. Some will rightly point to the fact that new is when the real challenge starts and both Bliss and manager Dean Smith will have their work cut out for them staying up this season.
For his part Bliss, like usual, made no sense as he tried to explain his goals for season 19/20. “Sure, Aston Villa have been a bit of a yo-yo club recently. But just like a yo-yo can go up and down, they can also be used to do mad ****. Have you ever seen anyone ‘shoot the moon’ – friggen’ awesome. That’s what we want to do.”

Let’s just hope that things go well for Villa so that Dean Smith doesn’t have more time to perfect his ‘walking the dog’ and that’s things stay interesting so that fans don’t end up giving them ‘the sleeper’.

Dean Smith, for his part, was far more understandable in explaining their proposed transfer dealings. ‘We know we don’t have a lot of funds right now, our goal will be to hold onto most of our players, attempt to attract some quality through Bosman transfers and filling squad gaps with loan players. To that end, we actually don’t have anyone on our transfer list.’
