Aston Villa: A club to admire

[Partizan]

Meanwhile, O'Neill is reportedly to reward fans of Aston Villa who had made the trip to Russia in midweek with a special dinner, paid for by the club.

Almost 300 supporters travelled to Moscow on Thursday night to see a second-string team beaten 2-0 and eliminated from the competition.
"I think it's a superb and a great gesture. Nobody asked for it and nobody expected it," Villa fan Andrew Dear told the Daily Star.

"I just think it's typical of the regime at Villa now in that they have an understanding of the fans and what it's like to be a supporter these days."

Randy Lerner is one of the Prem's best chairman. Despite being American he shows he listens to the fans, and rewards them where possible. A real breath of fresh air.

It's a cracking gesture.

I think they use Acorn as their sponsor as well a childrens charity to shame. They put a lot of clubs to shame I think. A cracking gesture.
