I think the criteria should be...were you at Villa Park on 22/12/1989 to see us beat Forest on a freezing night in the ZDS Cup?

Me and 6,529 others would be off to Wemberlee!
I was there on that sparse Holte End on a Friday night if memory serves me. At least we won and I did some xmas shopping in that hut of a shop near the Travellers Club.

I was there.....had had far too much to drink, fell down the terrace at the top of the Holte, and sang, 'Gagey is back, Gagey is back' on my own, and got a wave from him!!!!

Would anyone willingly submit to Five More Years for a victory is what I'd like to know. Must admit it's a toughie.

Five more years of the coalition or five more years of utter shite football?

I was on the Holte that night too. There was a great conga going on.

PS. Andy, can you get me a final ticket please?

I would have been just turned 5 and would have had reception in the morning.  Don't think my mum would have allowed it. 

I did make my debut that season though.  My first game was 1-0 at home to Derby that season.

Don't knock those non-attenders who insist they deserve a CF ticket.

I 'deserve' a ticket because, when I lived in Brum, I saw every home game when we were stuck in the third division. No one can impugn my loyalty.

Whether I 'deserve it more than the folk who go down every fortnight is more doubtful.

Of course, the real issue here is the standard shocking distribution of tickets to the two clubs involved.

I don't think the f a think that the fans of the clubs involved deserve tickets.If fact the f a probably think that the 2 sets of fans actually hinder the f a's attempt to make even more money. One question for the f a though.. Where the fuck would you be without the supporters that attend games.

What a self righteous post.

I think more than 25,000 Villa supporters 'deserve' to go the FA Cup final. I no longer have a season ticket and will be one of the unfortunates scrambling around for one of the remaining 5,000, but make no mistake, I'll be trying my luck at every opportunity and couldn'the give a flying one if it knocks a few noses out of joint.
