It's in our DNA as Football Club, it's in my DNA as a Villa fan, when Ray Stewart scored the last minute Penalty at West Ham - that was the closest I've ever come to tears about the result of a Football Match.

As you say - that and all the other big disappointments in the tournament; Man Utd (1977), Tottenham (1982), Arsenal (1983), the Liverpool and Chelsea semis and the disaster of 2000 can all be put away as a distant memory with a win on Saturday
