I'm on board. Everyone needs to put aside their differences and grievances with the club for the next 12 games. We can get back to all of that in earnest in the summer once our safety has been secured. Relegation is unthinkable and unacceptable. Let's pull together.

I wonder if the English ever tire of cynicism?

There is naught else to do but stand firm and get behind them. The best atmosphere we have had at Villa Park in years was against Sunderland and the players responded. We might as well see if we can inspire the same again.

did it really surprise you though we couldn't go more than two posts on what was meant to be a positive thread without someone being cynical? There is a lot of places to go on H&V to be miserable/cynical/skeptical. It's like a virus and even well intentioned threads are invaded.

So true. I will never forget that night, we were immense and so were the team. Particularly remember Lowton being absolutely unstoppable.

Thank you. I had loads of stuff like this from the original 12th Man campaign. Pics, vids, text. No idea where I saved them all.
