Aston Villa vs Birmingham City Pre-Match Thread

We did get the whole Gabby end in 2010

We didn't get upstairs.

That was closed, and still is I think, we got all of the rest.

So not all

If they get the North Stand upper, there is absolutely definitely going to be additional grief. They'll want to top whatever Albion did. It's how they think.

I was in the last row, which was fun when the seat throwing started. Some bell end whacked a seat off the back of my head in a 'friendly fire' incident.

All there was.

If Alanis Morisette was a Villa fan she'd be kicking herself for not waiting twenty years before releasing her awful 'Ironic' song.

'It's like you hire a jetwash
for the North Stand
and then get drawn against Blues in the Rumbelows Cup.'

[Des Little]

It'll need wire brush and dettol after those mongrels have been near it.

We didn't even get the whole lower tier for the 2010 LC game as there were noses in the end block to our left - it even kicked off under the stand at HT. And the upper tier wasn't closed then; it was full of unwashed, many chucking things down on us. I think our allocation was around 3500-4000 ish.

We didn't get the full allocation we could've got because of police advice.

Which I'm sure will apply this time round as well.

[PeterWithesShin]

The away side is entitled to 10% of capacity in the LC, so with their small ground we probably got more than the minimum. Our allocation was cut for the league game later that season because of the problems at the cup game.

Ironically known as "blue on blue" to people within the game

Like the dimmest of playground antagonists, they will pick on any aspect of our club's culture or personality, and attempt, witlessly, to turn it against us.

We have influence outside the boundaries of north Birmingham, so therefore they will proclaim "Da vile ent proppa Brummiz cus they fram Wussta an' Lishfield an' Glossta, ennit?" while they wait for the bus back to Solihull.

Don't they understand the reason why few outside the slums of south Birmingham support them is because they are an irrelevance, totally insignificant in the world of football, and utterly repulsive to all sane human beings? Or the reason why most of their fans are Brummies is simply because they had the misfortune to be born into a whoop of shit-hurling south Birmingham sub-chimps, and that no outsider would ever choose to be a part of that sorry scene?

"Da vila are historians," because Villa have actually achieved things in their 140-year history; and yet since the knuckledraggers fluked a cup in the last decade, they've suddenly all become scholars themselves.

"Da Vile play in pink an' baby blue," which, with such sensitivity to colour, makes them sound like simian Laurence Llewelyn Bowens.

"Da Zulus will batta da vile," because that's what it's all about, football, having a crew of sad, bald, astonishingly thick 50-year-old apes in tacky sports gear, jumping up and down on the spot, hitting families with children as they pass by.

I've never come across such a pathetic troop of dimwitted cretins, consumed with bitterness and jealousy, so utterly obsessed with their illustrious neighbours, in my life.

The morons.

Marvellous.
