Just had a text from a friend to say that another mutual friend has discovered his and his son's £475 tickets are fake. How they must be feeling is very difficult to imagine

There really is some shit people in this world. Hope those people get to resolve the matter and at least get to watch us somewhere win the cup. Nothing will replace being there off course.

How are you holding up there Richard?

I'll be watching from Singapore.  Dad and brother will be at the game.  We were all there together for the 2000 final and what a rubbish day that was.  Really sorry that I won't be able to celebrate with them.  Because we are going to do this.  Believe.

I don't think I've ever felt this sick before a game. Really hope those of you going get a couple of drinks down you and BELIEVE. The fans can win it for us today

Finally got off to sleep around 6ish this morning and grabbed a few hours snooze - got up a couple of hours ago - still in my dressing gown, radio 5 on in background, football focus etc. ready to watch -  strong Villa tradition in my family - Nan, Grandad and uncle there in 1957, Mum and Dad there in the 70s - I was at Highbury and Rotterdam and all the other 70s good and bad bits, 2 nephews there today - how I hope my great nephew (5 and already Villa mad) will be enjoying watching on tv.

For me - this is as big as Highbury and Rotterdam - waited all my 57 and 3/4 years for this.

Come on boys

Stay strong people. Your club needs you today. Save the tears for when Delph lifts the cup and we all go fucking mental. We will out sing Arsenal everywhere. They will know they have been in a fight today.
