I had a dream last night that Ashley Westwood scored a last minute winner in the Cup.

I had a dream we beat southampton 6-5 but I like yours better

Do you want to bet against us?

Fucking brilliant!

The delivery of that line from Ron Saunders is electric, hairs standing up on the back of the neck, stuff.  Come on Villa!!

Yes, mission one has been accomplished and all being well that will be the end of these dog fights of the past few years.  If there's one positive thing about the past three years I reckon a lot of our players will now know what it's like to play football under real, intense pressure.  Hopefully the Cup Final will feel like a walk in the park compared to some of the tense situations they have had to face over the past few months.  We're not the favourites with the neutrals but often that is when Villa are at their very best. 

It almost feels surreal to think we are in an FA Cup Final at the weekend...but this is where we are.  Forget about the league season now and focus on this one game.  Let everyone write us off. The more they do, the more I genuinely think we can and will win.

For me this week is a lot like when Wigan won the cup except they were relegated. Nobody gave th a chance vs Man City. A side assembled at a cost many times over that of their opponent. Yet Wigan came in with a good game plan, and ultimately outfought and outwitted Man City and deservedly won the cup. We have nothing at all to fear. Arsenal are expected to win and we have everything to gain. Something tells me we have a little left in the tank this season and it is being saved up for one last big push this season.

I've been singing this all day:

When I find you waiting hours o-oh
You're there to save my life for an obvious goal,
We've got a headstart for happiness
And for our part
Guess I must be blessed
For this feeling to be so strong
Tell me is that so wrong?

The space between us for days has been so far,
I've spent a lonely week
Now I wanna be where you are
We've got a headstart for happiness
And for our part
Guess we must be kissed by this force
That I feel inside
Now I'm not gonna hide

All the roads that lead to struggles
Bring you back to where you need
Some reassurance in your own depth only you can see
But let others feel

Peace in my mind
I'm so happy to find
As I get to my treck with a headstart back to you.

You'll find it can happen,
You'll find you've got the strength,
You can move a mountain,
You just need confidence,
In yourself and all you've got
To take this world and shake it up,
Let no-one say they're better than ya,
You must believe you've got the power
To rise above the lies,
Cuz what we're dealing with here today
Is a love thing
Right here, right now, now listen:

When I found you wating hours o-oh,
It's my heart not my head that takes control.
You've got to lead where your heart says go,
And hope that it turns out so,
And that's all that you can hope for,
Can you expect much more?

Naive and wise with no sense of time,
As I set my clock with a heartbeat tick-tock,
Violent and mild, common sense says I'm wild,
With this mixed up fury, crazy beauty,
Healthy to find all these feelings inside
As I get to my treck
With a headstart back to truth.
