@astonvillareview.com Have you considered moving off of Substack to something else? Going to support you no matter what but would feel better not giving money to Substack.

@steviegreen.bsky.social I’m going to subscribe to Having a Coke (surprising no one your writing is brilliant). But before I did was was wondering if there’s any chance you’d move off of Substack. Nothings perfect obviously, but Substack is pretty odious.

Villa won a trophy and I’m so glad that @jamesrushton.bsky.social and @jackgrimse.com got to be there. The spirit of 7500 to Holte lives on. Two of the most wonderful, loyal Villa fans that I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. Doesn’t hurt that they’re both exceptional story-tellers. UTV forever!

@astonvillareview.com I assume the player ratings are just: Martinez - 10: won a European final for Aston Villa. Cash - 10: won a European final for Aston Villa. Konsa - 10: won a European final for Aston Villa… &c.

The gap between Gehrig and third is 823 games. So if Matt Olson gets up to third all he has to do is repeat the tenth-longest consecutive game streak in MLB history and he’ll he just one game shy of second. Insanity.

Two circular arcs of rainbow that intersect at one edge over a building. Mostly blue skies behind.

She’s not wrong that federal body cam footage/wearing identification would be a federal issue, which is why it’s good that these bills address MPD. I know she’s happy to cooperate but for now MPD isn’t federal. She’s just awful.

the cool thing about xG is that when a team or player overperforms it for a long enough period of time the only reasonable conclusion to draw is that they’re doing something the model doesn’t capture or account for ☺️

Anita Bonds, who has routinely voted against RCV and is an unpopular incumbent in a citywide election next year, should not be a surprise as someone who is trying to make sure the implementation of RCV takes as long as is possible.

@astonvillareview.com I don’t want to go too deep into advanced metrics (/s) but I’m working on a theory re: Ollie’s downturn. It is simply a curse.
Screenshot of the notes app:

Top Villa PL Scorer Curse
Gabby
2005-06 to 2012-13 (season he broke Villa PL Record): 63 goals, 244 appearances, .26 g/a

2013-14 to 2017-18: 13 goals, 98 appearances, .13 g/a

Ollie 
2020-21 to 2024-25 (season he broke Villa PL record): 75 goals, 184 appearances, .41 g/a

2025-26: 1 goal, 12 appearances, .08 g/a

@colinokeefe.bsky.social I don’t live in Seattle, and obviously I follow TVL for Mariners coverage, but I loved today’s post. Love that you took a stand on a big deal knowing it might potentially alienate some readers. Thanks for writing it.

And the idea that she takes offense at MPD not taking accountability is laughable. They’ve burned every ounce of trust they had in this city and they do not deserve the benefit of the doubt.

I also got this in Ward 1 and wondered the same thing. Given her entry into the Delegate race today it seems pretty clear it was a campaign mailer under the guise of council business.
