I can't stand that lot when they're stony cold sober, never mind when they've ben on the piss all day.

Which they won't have been, it being a work day.
Early season, the annual jolly at Villa Park, a Friday, it's a day off work, for those with a job.

I'm sure the city will be able to cope with these barbarian hordes.

Would be nice to actually keep a clean sheet in this game for once to save the inevitable pitch invasions.

This is partly what I was alluding to.
I have despised these beings since the late 1960s when I would regularly catch a bus/coach from Burntwood  to every home game run by a Cannock company who happened to be Villa fans. It was dark times and if eleven people boarded the coach for a game that was as good as it got. And then when we had a home fixture against them we were lucky to get a seat thanks to all of the Man Utd fans suddenly appearing. I can't explain the hatred I have for these people. I am obviously outdated in this world of global premier league coverage but I don't give a toss. To see them celebrating perennially gets right up my crack.

Nobody likes them - in fact I think it's compulsory - but I do wonder why it is that they alone seem to set off some sort of Shock!!! Horror!!! reaction in a lot of our supporters.

We should just play the Saturday evening. If the police are unable to protect Nazis and watch a football match at the same time then, frankly, I'll live with a load of Nazis getting the shit kicked out of them.

I quite like the thought of Friday night football. Would be better with standing and beers in the stands as in Germany though (but obviously you couldn't actually trust English people to do that).

Yeah Friday night football is great, I mean why wait til 5pm on a Saturday to have your weekend ruined.
As for the EDL, they can fuck off , they recently marched on solihull, was probably 50 of them, mostly in an array of England tops and stone island.

I don't belive the reasons they are giving us.

Think they are actually trying to gauge the reaction of everybody to the Friday night games coming with this 'unique set of circumstances' shite.

The planned march won't have a bearing because it's not near VP.

What they want to see is how many of us get pissed enough to make it like 'armageddon' ala West Brom FA Cup.

Surprised the Bournemouth game isn't on TV. Also relieved.

From a neutral point of view, I can't believe Bournemouth v Villa wouldn't be a more interesting offering than Chelsea v Swansea or Arsenal v West Ham. Both would be okay if reversed, but look more than likely to be tediously comfortable home wins.

It seems the tv schedulers have steered clear of villa games, I have no issues with this.

It would be the people and businesses of Walsall that would suffer without the police there who would then have to put up with every news outlet in the country blaming them for the damage.

It is a pain in the arse having it moved but this time the blame lies with neither Sky nor WMP. It is the bigots from the EDL who are responsible.

I don't think the march being near VP or not is an issue. It is just down to police resources I guess.

I like your ideas and your optimism regarding change. Standing. Beer. Let's throw in half time lap dancers too. ;)
