Wipe away the years of misery and win the cup today.

Breakfasted in Piccadilly Weatherspoons and now on 10.35 from Manchester Piccadilly with my 2 sons. This is my ultimate Road Trip. Come on Villa, this is our day. Fellow H&Vers, sing your hearts out, we can help the lads do it.

[MarkM]

Got my victory cigar ready and £100 to come if Villa win 2-1!

Come on The Villa

I'm a nervous wreck but I've still got a good feeling about tomorrow.

I'm not nervous, just ridiculously hyper. Best way to describe is it's like Christmas Eve when you were a kid.

Well I hope its not like Christmas Eve for a 7 year-old kid of a muslim family...(or any non-Christmas celbrating people...)

To the 1000's of Villa fans lucky enough to be heading down to Wembley, enjoy your day. The rest of us will be glued to the telly biting our nails down to our wrists, as we await our mighty captain Fabian Delph lifting the FA Cup for the first time  in a very long time.

The best thing about supporting Aston Villa is that the bad times truly make you appreciate the good times.

Up the Villa.

Believe.

[Le Lapin]

Hope you guys going to the game have a great day.  We'll all be there in spirit, glued to our TVs all around the world.  Wish I was able to go to Murray bar in Dublin with all the other Irish Villains, feckin have to work today.  C'mon Villa,  become club legends today.

[TaxDodger]

I'm on the train to Euston and I have just seen Wembley. Every time I make this journey I always gaze wistfully at Wembley and speculate about when I'll go there with Villa next. Next season? Five years? Ten years? This time its two hours. And not just for any game, but for the FA Cup final. Bloody hell.

I wish there were a time travel amongst us who could come back and let me know everything is Ok and we won, I'm so nervous and don't think I can enjoy it.
