League Cup Quarter Final - away to Small Heath

[villajk]

Only 100 people qualified for this first window, so there should be loads left for you part-time fair weather lot.

Only 100?  Aren't there 1,000 in the Away Scheme?  Surely most of those would have gone to both cup games as well.

I think there are about a 1000 in it, but apparently only 100 of us managed to go to both. That Blackburn attendance was really low.

pfft, part time supporters. ;-)

Oi. Some of us could only make 4 away games instead of 5.

Re the standing issue, will Birmingham council and our stewards clamp down on standing at the Take That concerts next year? No they won't because they're screaming women so they'll be allowed to stand in the seats throughout, they're not naughty, drunken, hooligan football fans who are bound to cause trouble or get injured if they stand up so nothing will be said or done. Thats what i've never got, thousands are allowed to stand in seats for hours at concerts where you're jumping around throughout yet you're at risk if you stand and sing at a football match.

Yawn. If you spent more time moaning to your MP about this rather than us, then something might happen.

It's the battle of the worlds greatest fans.

In case anyone was wondering like I was, the club arent running any coaches for the quarter final. I asked at the ticket office today. I realise it sounds daft to some because of the distance, but a coach to and from the turnstiles might have made a difference to people that want to go but are worried about getting away after the match especially with kids in tow .Without that feeling of extra security theres a good chance they wont now think its worth the bother.

Coaches would be sitting ducks for the brick chucking knuckledraggers to be honest.

it must be quite hard chucking a brick with no thumbs.

Would look great on sky if we held up the 'the city is ours' scarfs that are being sold outside the villa on matchdays!

Are you saying he's too heavy to lob at the Blues?
