Unai Emery can be Aston Villa's Sir Alex Ferguson – instead of following him. As owners NSWE move to offer Emery a new long-term contract, this only feels like the beginning. A no-excuses culture driving Villa towards a bright future telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

The narrative will be that Forest are mad and the statement is OTT… but the club are raging and this has happened way too many times. Forget the corruption angle, it’s just total incompetence and obv not just for Forest this season. PGMOL have to get a handle on this

Three extremely poor decisions - three penalties not given - which we simply cannot accept.

We warned the PGMOL that the VAR is a Luton fan before the game but they didn’t change him. Our patience has been tested multiple times.

NFFC will now consider its options.

Whatever the occasion, however hostile the environment, Emiliano Martinez is the undisputed king of the penalty shoot-out. The more abuse he gets, the better he seems to become. The European journey continues.. telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

Unai Emery aiming to win his 8th quarter-final in European competition on Thursday night, in Villa’s most significant test yet. Also a big night for Emiliano Martinez who is likely to face a hostile reception from over 45k fans. Report from Lille telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

have struggled with set-pieces all season but the season card increase is a huge own goal. At a time when the club needs its supporters more than ever, after such an excruciating season (PSR/Var etc), this could seriously damage their survival chances. Urgent rethink needed

Aston Villa the title damagers. Now done the double over Arsenal in a masterclass from Emery. Huge top-four boost. So many good performers (Carlos, Zaniolo) & Rogers looks a fine signing: big progress in last few weeks. Bargains to be had in the Championship (cc: Talking Tactics)

appeal over the 4-point deduction to start w/c April 22nd. Forest remain hopeful of having the sanction reduced. Could prove a pivotal development in the relegation battle, and surely has to be sorted well before May 19th 🤯 telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

Leicester to avoid points deduction this season and still top of the league, but 5 defeats in 8 and a 17 point lead thrown away. Huge few weeks ahead for . Surely time to get Conor Coady back in the team? telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…

news - Forest will trigger a contract option for Ola Aina. New one-year deal regarded as a formality. For clarity, leading scorer Chris Wood - who has scored eight goals in nine appearances - has another year on his contract. Deal up at end of 24/25 season

in exclusivity talks with a party from North America, with the aim of a May takeover. Crucially, another points deduction to be avoided (in the short-term, at least) after tax bill was paid last week. Other March liabilities expected to be OK telegraph.co.uk/football/2024/…
