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.

Woke up this morning nervous as hell, thought I had a dentist appointment, relieved to discover it was because Villa are in the bloody FA Cup Final! Been into town and bought my son a programme as a surprise, now to watch Football Focus for the first time in years...

Enjoy the day!

It's slightly embarrassing, desperation is kicking in. If anyone has any leads on a spare ticket - hahahah, i know, right - Please PM me - I will be lurking around the stadium area.    Enjoy the game everyone.

The fans will make all the difference today. We are the 12th man. We will inspire our Lions to victory.

To everyone, from Toronto, have a wonderful day and in a few hours I hope we are delirious brothers and sisters in arms celebrating a massive victory and the rebirth of Aston Villa Football Club.

I have a tenner on Ramsey to score first and Villa to win 3-2 - 425/1. I'm invoking the spirit of Dion Dublin! Paddy Power are going 1-0, 2-0 to the Arse, or 1-1. It's not unreasonable to think that they'll score 2, so the most likely result should we win has to be 3-2. Come on Villa!!!!

It's fitting that on Gerrard's birthday 'Abide With Me' is being replaced by a medley of Phil Collins hits.

There's something rather delightful about wondering around London Town and random strangers wishing you good luck.

A black cat just crossed my path. It's  a sign.

On my way up to Wembley now. A few beers at St Joseph's then it will happen.

Have a great day everyone

Great shots of the Villa changing room with messages from the fans above each player's seat and on the doors
