Game was on TV here. Henry mustn't have a contract with the disposable razor company any more. I thought it was Viv Richards who came on. Swear he was offside for his goal, the cheating c***.

Lets face it he needed that extra yard, anybody else notice he could barely break into a trot, hope Keane has a bit more in his legs after his season.

I'me over that weekend again, I hope it's Leeds.


Well on the upside we'll get more tickets, on the upside it'll probably be on TV.

Not an upside if it's 12.30 on a Sunday and I can't go! Although I suppose I'm being selfish here.

Sorry I was meant to write downside.

Couldn't break into a trot? Sounds like Pires

I'd rather it were Leeds, but we've won twice in the last 3 years at the Emirates and can do it again. It would be quite amusing if Keane knocked them out.
On a night of "fairy tale magic" I like to think this too.....

Will our Irish players be fired up to put 'Viv Richards' (TM Bad English) in his place do we think?

Viv Richards?

Looked more like Kimbo Slice to me

Thinking about this, does any PL side have a better league record than us at the Emirates, in the five full seasons they've played there?

We've W2 D2 L1.

I can't imagine many teams have a better record than that.

Don't see why we can't carry on in this vein if we go for it.
As it's the cup I hope we will!

Nothing to lose and nothing to fear at The Emirates. Lets go for it.

I'm now about to get stupidly carried away and excited about this game.  Come on all you Villa boys and girls, get your arses down the Emirates and lets get behind the team. 

<blackcountryvilla mode>

We'll be considered a small club if we don't sell this out.

</blackcountryvilla mode>

Can't wait.....

However if those f****** at ESPN move this to Monday night I'll be fuming.

From the Leeds site I got the info from.

We will receive an initial allocation in the Lower Tier of the visitors section of approximately 5,100 tickets priced at £35 adults, £15 senior citizens 65+ and £14 for juniors under 16. Disabled tickets (wheelchair and ambulant) are priced at £17.50. A further allocation of approximately 3,700 tickets may be available in the Upper Tier. However, this allocation will only be available if there is sufficient demand and we can guarantee to sell all of this section. Prices in the Upper Tier would range from £41 to £50. The deadline for us to request the Upper Tier is 5pm on Sunday. Therefore, our usual sales period is shorter than usual but necessary on this occasion. 

They charged Leeds fans 35 quid for a Monday night game?!

That surprises me a lot, pretty sure they don't charge that amount for premier league games.

Chelsea won there twice but also lost there twice.

Can't think of anyone else who've done that.
