Ok footy, when Iceland fans did it it was impressive and original, it really captured a moment in time.Us copying it would be contrived and cringeworthy.Does that make sense?
Wolves fans probably see it as an original and humourous addition to the atmosphere.Those of us with television sets, running water and a certain inherent sense of style that come with being a Villa fan, know otherwise. I'm afraid its a no from me. And a big one at that.
NO. If anyone does the thunderclap near me I shall thunderclap them round the face. With my pecker.
Have a little bit of respect. I think it's probably to do with the defeat to Iceland at the euro's at least British villa fans should admit that's why they dislike it

I think it's probably to do with the defeat to Iceland at the euro's at least British villa fans should admit that's why they dislike itI think most Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish people enjoyed Iceland's successes and so did a small percentage of English people. People's opposition to this idea is not based on parochialism but formed on the basis that it is a really, amazingly, shit idea.The suggestion that Villa adopt a "Thunderclap" is about as popular as a salad in a Glaswegian chip shop and if you practised the same "respect" of other people's opinions that you preach then you would stop banging on about it and taking offence every time somebody pointed what a genuinely, atrociously woeful suggestion it is.I like you Footyskillz, but, come on mate, let this one go, yeah?

I respectfully suggest that you do not take opposing opinions personally.Green . I got it. Just hoped to see a reasoned response. Bent gave it. I'll ignore other ones and respect that's how they see it but feel it's a bit demeaning belittling rather than acknowledge the fantastic applause Iceland do. If it's not recognised or favoured to be copied fair enough.

Don't want any visiting supporters to think this is the usual standard on H&V. We're usually talking about what we had for tea and worst players we've seen play for Villa for those just passing through.
