Fan who promised not to tweet until Villa won a game finally breaks his silence

Almost 4 months without a league win

An Aston Villa fan has finally tweeted again after pledging not to post on Twitter until his side won a league game.

Three and a half months had passed since @KingKozak last posted in the wake of Villa’s 3-2 defeat to a Brendan Rodgers-managed Liverpool side on September 26.

The defeat dropped Tim Sherwood’s team into the relegation zone, a position that they have found themselves in ever since.

Villa had not won for 13 consecutive league games before Tuesday night’s 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace, which allowed the fan to finally end his vow of silence.

Rather than gloating over the victory like his club did, his return was surprisingly understated.
