@JohnHann04 @BBCNews reported last night that he was a refugee. Just what or whom was he escaping from?

Played his part in a well-deserved @AVFCOfficial win that takes the club five points clear of the fifth placed team.

Good day at Villa Park, solid from start to finish. Thanks for your support today. #UTV 💪🏻

[David Hucker @david_hucker]

After last week's heavy defeat to Chelsea, this was a welcome win and all to play for at Villa Park next Thursday.

Eight races at @WarwickRaces on Sunday for their popular Four-Legged Friends Day featuring the Pug Gold Cup. First race is now at 1.40pm. House of Habsburg (pictured nearside) is on a hat-trick, but has to overcome another rise in the weights.

@AVFCStatto The disallowed Watkins goal changed the course of the game, going in at half-time 2-1 down instead of 2-1 up. Having said that, the defending was poor and Buendia gave the ball away too much, again. Palmer is pretty good at those shots from the edge of the box and was left to it.

FIVER FRIDAY AT WARWICK
Seven races and family entertainment this half-term at @WarwickRaces. Five pounds for adults and children under-18 admitted free. Can top-weight Only Gossip follow in the footsteps of Fashion's Model, last year's winner of the mares' handicap chase?

@fawwon1 @WarwickRaces @DSkeltonRacing Today's going update is soft, heavy in places on the hurdles course. It has generally been a dry day in Warwickshire, so fingers crossed.

BUMPER EIGHT-RACE CARD AT WARWICK
Saturday's Kingmaker Day at @WarwickRaces will now have eight races and an earlier start time than originally planned. Trainer @DSkeltonRacing won the Grade 2 feature race last year with L'Eau du Sud (photo) and has entered Mirabad this time.
