What makes you proud to support the Villa?

- We are one of only a handful of English clubs to have won the European Cup (and one of them only managed it by spending a billion.)

The name, the ground, the colours.
Followed by the traditions, the history and that there's still an "Aston Villa way of doing things" whether it comes to honouring and respecting traditions and history or how it treats its supporters.
That there's thousands of other mad eejits that feel the same way as I do about the same thing.
And finally, Christian Benteke's alien ears.

I'm proud of the way our current manager does business in the transfer market. No fuss, no overpriced big names, just good business with young, talented, hungry players.

Everything. In good and bad times.
We're Aston Villa. That makes me proud.

There's not enough bandwidth on the internet to do this topic justice.

Yes just this plus for me , of course, the geographical location snugged at the bottom of Aston Park.

We epitomise the phrase "A proper club" , and the fact that lots of neutral observers say that about us.

Turning onto Trinity Road and seeing the ground loom above you like a temple. It's the greatest club in the world.

It was easy for me. I was born on Fentham Road in Aston. This is just off the Trinity Road and is the shape of a dog leg. I was born right on the bend and Villa Park can be seen very clearly from that spot.
