We need to stop the rot. The crowd will be with the team for the first five minutes, it always is. How quiet it goes depends on how much we show.

If we lose heavily there may be a bit of booing, but I don't think you'll see a massive out pouring like Bolton.

Unless we concede 2 or 3 in the same number of minutes which is something we are often good at...

I think we are too brow beaten to be as angry as the game v Bolton. I think Lerner and Faulkner were shitting themselves they would be next in the firing line. Being the subject of 25,000 people's anger can't be healthy

We are good moaners, amongst the best but angry - very rarely.

I've decided, I'm not going to watch it, I'm giving Villa a miss and I'm going to have some family time. I've had enough now

Because of the cost I pick about half a dozen matches a season to go to. Spuds on Sunday would have been one of them, but to be honest I can't be arsed.
I'll probably watch it in the pub, but in a ghoulish way just to see the crowd reaction if we get badly beaten.

If this doesn't go well then this game could, and should, be Lamberts Bolton. I really hope Randy is there to witness it if we just sit there and give Spurs an easy win. I hope we make the point crystal clear once the final whistle blows, that Lambert has to go.
He should be playing for his job now. We're desperate for a point at the moment, let alone a win.

I'm getting a taxi at 4am that day, to fly to Heathrow, will then drive up to Villa Park. I'll be too tired to boo!

I don't bother anymore.Prefer going to see live music at weekends. I think there comes a time in your life when you  think what's the point?

I watch them if they're on TV and look in here occasionally but nothing ever changes.

I wonder how many 1000's of supporters they have lost over the years, not because they are fair weather but just because they find it pointless?

OK you are no longer a supporter just a lapsed fan like  thousands of others.

I'll be there in the Upper Holte and we will no doubt start ok but fail to score and then let 2 goals in quick succession. Huff and puff without creating any decent chances before conceding a third on 80 mins, cue head for the exits and back to the car.

I struggle to see how not going because it's pointless, i.e. we're shit, is anything but fair weather.

It's the very definition of fair weather.

West ham, Crystal Palace and Fulham at home last season and Wigan and Newcastle at home the season before.
