Petrov banner banned from Villa park

[villa `cross the mersey]

I'm probably going to be ripped to pieces for this but do we really need to do the 19th minute applause this season? I totally understood it last season and Petrov knows were all fully behind him, continuing to do it is all abit Liverpool.

Logged into post that you're a moron for making such a post.

"continuing to do it is all abit Liverpool" - what the hell does that even mean? It's about doing the right thing and showing respect for our captain.

I'm a moron and your a fucking drama queen. Now is the time to let the bloke get on with his recovery in a dignified and quiet manner, he knows, we know and the rest of the country knows that we've backed him and will continue to back him through out it, we don't need to show it at every available opportunity as the Scousers do.

Grow up !

I like the sentiment in the banner, as I do the applause. I think Villa fans should continue with it. Standing up for one minute to show support for our captain in my opinion isn't too much hassle out of my day. If that makes me look a bit 'Liverpool' then fine, I can live with that.
Despite this,  I think the banner should be redesigned and possibly used to replace the 12th Man banner so it doesn't obstruct peoples view

You know that wanker who sits 5 seats away from me? The one who turns up 5 minutes late for every game, leaves 5 minutes before half-time so he can have (another) pie, returns 5 minutes after the restart with his coke/coffee, then leaves 5 or 10 minutes before the end, making me wonder why he's bothered coming to the game at all?
Can I get him banned?
If not, can I have permission to punch him in the face?

Yours sincerely,
Mr Angry,
Aston

And he left TWENTY minutes before the end on Saturday!

(Lucky sod!)

I'm with Luke 25 on this one to an extent, the fans have shown support for Stan, he's in remission (correct me if I'm wrong) and I don't see much reason to keep going on and on about it.  Sorry I just find it all a bit maudlin and attention seeking.   It's all Princess Di's fault, she turned the UK into a nation of wailers and teeth gnashers. 

Oh an  you could cut the banner into three horizontal strips, stitch them together at the sides, problem sorted.  If you must.

Does anyone remember The Pathetic Sharks?

Can anyone who sits near me and spends three hours in the pub before getting to the match please empty every drop of piss BEFORE occupying their seat?

The constant up and down as you go to drain your feeble bladder is very annoying.

Me, they were hilarious

And if you keep it up one of them won't be you. You've been asked to cut it out, so please do so.

It's not the banner that's banned, surely it is the hanging of it in a position where it obscures the view of a lot of other people.

And? From that pic, it looks like it is strung over some empty seats or ones that the people displaying it were sitting in. From the pic you posted in the OP. It is blocking the peoples view underneath. A minute is a long time in football, especially when a view is blocked. As mentioned by others, I'm sure the club would be happy with a smaller banner.

There's no other way of hanging it! and at the end of the day it's 60 seconds
