I don't know, I'd quite like us to score 7.

Remember the chant:  "We'll be running round the Bull Ring with the Cup" ?

Was that just a 70s thing - or did it last longer? With all the redevelopment of the city centre we may need to amend it. Any preferences?


I remember it being sung in the 90s.
It was sung in 94. Along with:

Tell big Ron, big Ron, to put the champagne on ice, we’re going to Wembley twice, tell big Ron, big Ron.

Robbie Fowler put paid to it with a 13 minute hatrick at Old Trafford if I’m not mistaken!!

You are mistaken. He scored in the semi but it wasn’t a hat trick

And that was in 96 not 94.

And Big Ron wasn't manager - Brian Little was.

Couldn’t get a ticket, I live in London and my booking history isn’t good enough.

So I’m at work today and my phone is buzzing all day from a mate, but I’m teaching so can’t pick it up. Finally pick it up at about 4:30, he says where are you watching the game on Sunday? I tell him I’m going to a pub in town (haven’t decided the venue yet). He says do you fancy watching it at Wembley, in hospitality? Can’t believe it. So excited.

Come on Villa!!
How long have you been mate’s with William Windsor?

Was on a night shift last night and watched the whole 94 game. Been in my local tonight and there’s a minibus going from 8am.

If you can’t enjoy a day at Wembley you need to re-evaluate your sport.

Up the Villa!
