My wife loves it. Her first game was the Everton 3-3 draw back in 2009 iirc. BUT... - I can't wear a footy top if we're not in walking distance of the ground as she thinks it's chavvy. If you can't wear them on match days, when can you? - The pre-match booze is cut to a minimum.- And I can't travel to the Villa on me own or friends anymore. She thinks it's just an excuse to get plastered.Poor old me.

I never, ever drink alcohol before or during a sports event that I am into. I'm very nedry about sport and need to take absolutely everything in.I think i would miss stuff if I was boozed up!!

Oh, another small issue I've got with her is that she still loves that weasel Downing. Argh.
My wife isn't keen on football at all and the only time I took her to the Villa (when we moved back up here 4 years ago) she was more amused by the accents and general moaning in the Trinity. She also asked after 30 mins "which one is Villa?" To be fair she also hated having to go to some matches in London with work on corp hospitality and they were all Arsenal/Man U type games.I went out with a girl years ago (was living in London at the time) who went the other way. Never been to a football life in her match and we stood in the Holte End (she was tiny - 5 foot). She loved it. Went round her house not long after and she had Villa posters up in her bedroom and she gave me a blow job wearing nothing but a Villa shirt whilst her Mum and Dad were downstairs watching TV.
