It was one of the most enjoyable games I've seen.

It was hard work pacing up and down the lounge, I couldn't keep still. I sat on every seat, adopted every pose imaginable and roared to the skies 3 times.

My spy's tell me that the local was rocking at the end, with the Sandwell supporters thin on the ground, probably at home, knowing what they are.

It's been a strange experience and not one I want to repeat. I was prepared to put up with it hoping for chance to go to the final or at least to be in the busom of the Villa faithful somewhere or other.

I hope those that went had a great time and all return safely, you did the club proud.

You lot that were there did us proud today. The noise could be heard over the commentary and with a few minutes to go that roar and the shot of you lot  going wild was amazing.

Watched the game on a big outdoor screen here in Puerto Duquesa (C del Sol),the īBindipperīcontingent were pretty subdued but just about everyone else wanted us to win. Manure fan next to me was very complimentary about our play, throughout,  put his money where his mouth is won 140 quid having bet on us after we went one down.
Amazing how many Villa fans I,ve met here, over the past 2 ( televised )games, they usually keep a low profile but today the colours were showing, people gradually undoing their shirts to show a variety of Villa T-Shirts underneath.
A truly great ay to be alive...and to be a fan of the greatest Club in the World.
A quick word for all those fans who did us proud at Wembley today, we heard you down here and you were magnificent!,..............Godzvilla!

I watched it in the Oak Apple, Worcester. We were on a table of Dippers, and the dad went crackers when they went ahead. I said to the missus that she'd better put the earplugs in when we score.

I now have no voice, and I bloody loves it.

Bump..

I just read that the club won't be screening the Final on may 30th :(

I just wondered what people were doing? City centre used to be well good but now it's well shit, where is the best place to watch the final?

Ideas would be lovely

Get the BBC to show it on the big screen by the old library.

I'm very ignorant regarding internet streaming and stuff like that but, TV3 in Ireland are screening it live.  I don't know if you can access it from there but they are doing it.  Might be worth a try.

Sorry Phil, what sort of a bollox am I?  If you wanted to watch it at home it's  on the BBC.  I'm a numbnuts.

Thankfully, i will be there, but the thought of watching it in a pub full of noses - great if we win - but those lot celebrating if we dont, only just so much a man can take.

I'm fortunate to have a ticket this time around but if I didn't I would still head to London.

Clay Ovens sounds good, or a pub near Wembley, I'm sure there will be plenty of Villa fans kicking around.
