What they Said
"I am delighted that the purchase of Aston Villa has now gone through. The club has a magnificent heritage and, I believe, a very bright future. There are exciting times ahead. We plan to build a club that achieves success on a sustainable, long-term basis. Our plans will not come to fruition overnight. They will, however, be carefully considered and thought through and then clearly communicated to our supporters. Although it is early in the season, I would like to pay tribute to Martin O'Neill and his squad for the start they have made to the new campaign."
Randy Lerner.
"I think we could do with getting a bit more quality here. Iโm not saying that he is going to come here and throw money like Chelsea have done. I don't think that's really in his nature but it doesn't mean that there's not some things we can put in place now and reap the rewards from later on."
Martin OโNeill.
"We have a chance, as every single team does, of getting into European football, it's a gateway.
"It's a million miles away at this minute, but you might as well go in strong.
"At this minute, it is important for us to go as strong as we can, just keep confidence going."
Martin OโNeill.
New chairman to impress or not, Martin OโNeill has always taken this competition seriously and it was no surprise that Villa were at full strength last night. The last team the Irishman sent out in this competition was Leicester City to win the 2000 final, and he clearly fancies a repeat.
Scunthorpe began at 100mph, as might have been expected, but kick and chase it wasnโt. Billy Sharp tested Thomas Sorensenโs reflexes and bravery in the second minute and Steve Foster blasted over as The Iron kept their visitors on the back foot. Villaโs new chairman Randy Lerner, watching with a considerable entourage, can only have been impressed by the sportโs depth on his first exposure to football life outside the Premiership because Villa, who lost in this competition at Doncaster last season, were under real pressure.
Gradually their extra class began to show. Twice they hit the bar, first when Juan Pablo Angel sidefooted Gabriel Agbonlahorโs cross and then when Gareth Barry shot from 22 yards. Three minutes before half-time Luke Moore outpaced Richard Hinds on to Sorensenโs long clearance and was brought down. Angelโs penalty was blocked by Joe Murphy but the Colombian turned in the rebound.
Fuelled by a sense of injustice Scunthorpe redoubled their efforts and Andy Keogh almost squeezed a shot past Sorensen. Villa scored again when Angel headed Aaron Hughesโs cross past Murphy but Sharpโs header from a corner ensured a lively final quarter.
