You can't get two seats together anywhere in the Holte anymore. Rather than seeing this as a distraction from the Premier League, I think we should use this as an opportunity. Turning around the 3-1 score and a fantastic, fun, loud night at Villa Park could give our youngsters a new found confidence to take into the league.

Those of you who claim to not care about the cup, I've never seen Villa lift a trophy in my lifetime of following them with a passion. While some of you have the European Cup, countless League cups, division titles, and maybe even an FA Cup if you're old enough, I have nothing. My 'great villa memories' are being in the Holte when Blues got relegated, seeing us win the Peace Cup, and the few seasons we were almost better than Everton. Do you know how depressing that is?

Don't you dare try and take my excitement away from this, it's all I have as younger Villa fan, and being at Wembley to watch Man United lift it 3 years ago almost broke my heart. Lets turn them over and win our cup again, for the thousands of kids my age who don't know what it's like.



Ha, young , vibrant , eager, hopeful, do you happen to play left back by any chance chipsticks?

With an endorsement like that I can't believe Faulkner hasn't offered me the manager's job yet! Funnily enough I did play Full-back for three years at Sunday League level...

Be at bodymoor Heath Saturday, coach leaves at  3pm - bring your boots , you'll be marking odemwingie.

Can I have a go upfront if we're winning 4-0?

An early goal and I think it's very possible. If it goes goalless for too long I can't see us going through, and if, god-forbid, we concede first, I think that's curtains.

Agree, an early goal and the crowd would be crazy, bradford would panic and I think we could take them to the cleaners - even if we only took the lead after an hour we would still be in business , but I have thought 4-1 since Wednesday and stick with that.

If Blackburn the other season is anything to go by, how can they possibly stop hundreds/thousands of fans breaking the law?

Has anything happened regarding Bradford's idiot PA announcer?
