Never seemed this cold when Doug was still in charge.

The Board Must Go !

The hot air coming from the directors box kept us all warm!

Liverpool last Christmas with the horizontal snow. I've even bought myself a thick waterproof jacket because I am sick of being cold and wet and at the Villa.

Now theres a revolutionary idea - wearing appropriate clothing for the weather! I'm rarely cold at Villa because I wear thermal layers, a warm coat, and shoes with thick soles...................................and drink  as much as possible before kick off!

Obviously the inclement weather this season is a direct result of MON leaving - after all. according to some posters, the sun really did shine out of his arse

I wear layers upon layers.  Scarves, hats, hoods, thermal gloves, thick socks, fur lined boots, I'm like the Michellin man.  I also have lots of hand warmers.

I'm going to try your second suggestion tomorrow night, Amfy.  Plenty of alcohol.

I actually put together a list of all the weather conditions for home games this season from memory that I never managed to post. But to cut a long story short, since August it's been fucking freezing.

All well and good but the huge coat I bought for Villa games seemed to cause us to lose at SHA & Sunderland so must be unlucky and can never be worn in B6 again.
