It's often said that winning the Manager of the Month award brings a curse of bad results. After winning the award in December, Dean Smith saw his team winless in 2021 and hit by a Covid outbreak. A 2-0 win against Newcastle soon broke the spell though.
Speaking of curses, as well as discussing Villa's home win over a returning Steve Bruce's Newcastle United, we look at various alleged incidents of witchcraft, superstition and voodoo in football from around the world in the past couple of weeks.
As well as talk of a Villa transfer, we look at the latest incarnation of an attempt of a European Super League.
Overrated or Underrated sees ex-Villa and Newcastle midfielder Nobby Solano under the microscope.
Enjoy!
