FA Cup Final - Pre-Match Thread

[gervilla]

I'm in bits all ready.  Christ,  what with I be like during the game ? Never been this bad before.  C'Mon VILLA.  Do us proud.

[Smirker]

I'm actually fine. This is a lovely bonus to another grotesquely awful season and I just hope we give a good account of ourselves, at a difficult moment in the club's history. If we win, amazing; if we lose, I just hope it's not a tonking. I don't even mind the opposition so much - compared to Chelsea, Man City, Man United, Liverpool and Spurs, Arsenal are practically angelic - so if we lose we only lose, we don't have to see a Terry or a Gerrard celebrating with stupid big grins spread all over their odious twunty faces.

No, nerves were real before the Everton game, before the West Ham game, before the Baggies game in the league. This is what it is. It may sound small-time, but after everything in the last few seasons I'm pleased we got the home dressing room, and that we'll see the great and famous colours of the Villa back on a stage which befits them.

With that said - FUCK THE FUCKERS!

Amen. FTF.

 

Can't wait for this now. I think Benteke is going to have the game of his life.

FTF.

I was fine until I just read the last 10 pages of this thread now I'm welling up at the drop of a hat...

Can't believe i'm more nervous now than i was in 2000.
I was at the last Wembley final in 2000, watching at home today as i don't go very much any more. So why so much worse than when i was going all over the place following us?
