Couldn't tell you what one the top is. Europa League?

The FA Cup every time. The oldest cup competition in football. It might not pour hundreds of millions into the clubs and players bank accounts, but for me it's the one trophy I want us to win again before I shuffle off to the Holte End in the sky.

With all due respect, a no-brainer of a thread.  You might as well ask if you'd rather win the FA Cup or have your testicles grated.  It's always the FA Cup.  Don't get me wrong, if we ever win the Europa League I'll get extremely drunk and disgrace myself in public, but I want to see that FA Cup with the Villa ribbons on it.  Just once will do.  I'm 35.  Any time in the next 35 years and I'll die a happy man.

Carling Cup or Europa might have been a more interesting option.

Blimey, what planet have you been living on? It's been around for decades and used to be known as the UEFA Cup, formerly the prize for one of the most storied and coveted competitions in club football.

I would rather have won it than the FA Cup.

I think, on balance, I would rather win the FA Cup than its more recent incarnation, but it's not as cut-and-dried as it seems to be for others.

FA Cup more than this, more than the premiership, more than the champions league. All purely selfish - I've seen the last two and I want to see The Cup in my lifetime. It's our cup.

Far more romance connected with the FA Cup (despite what the media would have everyone believe), I reckon. I'd actually rather win the league cup than the Europa, to be frank.

+1

My dad started supporting in 1959 when he moved to Brum and he wants to see us win the FA Cup before he dies. TBH I'd take the FA Cup over the Premiership but not the Champions League.
