Boarded train at Warwick. Standing room only and they are already half sozzled with copious supplies with them. Farts and BO. This is not going to be a pleasant journey😥

I’m really not nervous at all. I was bricking it before the 2nd leg at West Brom. But I’ve been calm all weekend. I think we’ll win without too much fuss. Hopefully inside the 90 mins as I have work tomorrow morning and it kicks
Off at midnight here.

More nervous this year than I was last which I put down to the fact that this time last year I didn't realise how far in the shit the club was.

Wait until the train back either way it'll be much worse

Exiled in West London with a surprisingly high number of ‘Hampton Villans’ and so not quite a journey for us (though Wembley generally awkward place to get to). Planning to head to Swiss Cottage as last year but with a different result this time!! Hoping to meet up with a few from the Barton’s so let us know if you heading there. Safe travels all and let’s hope for a fabulous day!! Nerves kicking in but not sure anything can be worse than the Albion second leg! UTV 😩

Couldnt get a ticket and trying to stay calm but failing. Things to do but cant really concentrate. As someone posted earlier look at where we were in july to now, it'd make a great film but only if we win.

Heart says YES, head says FUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKK

After being lucky enough to be given a ticket at the last minute via a work colleague I am traveling down on a half full National exoresss coach which I booked weeks ago for £7 return

I’m a bag of nerves

Will it be fuck/shit/bollocks or goal/yes/scorchio?

I have just taught the potted history of Aston Villa to two Year 9 classes. I then taught them "And it's Aston Villa, Aston Villa FC... The world has ever seen."* I filmed them with my phone, they gave it a good go but it was a bit of a racket and they were a bit out of time with each other. I will get the Y10 kids to have a go at 11am as they should be able to give a decent rendition.

* We've been using superlatives and the present perfect in class so this was a good song to reinvest what they have learnt. ;-)

Trying to calm very bad nerves by focusing on how many big days being chopping blocks in the Prem gave us in recent years.   None.  I can and will take whatever goes with Wembley games.  FUCKTHEALBION.

On the train down from Newcastle and at Newark all the Derby fans got on - not feeling it yet!

I genuinely have not felt this nervous in a long time.

I’m fed up with coming down here and us not turning up. I’ll take a bit of that Liverpool semi final full time feeling if it’s going!

Absolute chaos and scenes trying to get on the trains. Tamworth couldn’t get on we’ve abandoned and are driving
