Aston Villa vs Man City Post-Match Thread

[olaftab]

Let's be honest - if you can afford a tenner you can afford £15. It's hardly expensive. 17k home fans for a first team game is shit.

£15? £20 muggins here paid and just before I had handed my money over they had scored! Several walked out of the ticket office at that time and I must say I was judgemental.

And we'll average more than them next season despite almost certainly being in the division below. Fuck 'em, bitter twats.

...is the right answer.

Think it was only £15 for the Holte and £20 in the Trinity and Witton Lane. I noticed loads still in the ticket office as walked through the car park 10 mins or so before KO.

.......
Albion had 22k+ with 4k Peterborough fans so they had more home fans than us. That's what Lerner has done to us, less home fans than the fecking Albion.

They held us to a draw last week. That is always going to add 3/4000 to their next gate, regardless of who they are playing.

On a bit of a tangent, at eight pages this thread seems rather light compared to its equivalent for other games.

Edit - nine pages still seems light.

Sorry Chris, I guess we're just not as popular as we used to be.

I'm not suggesting its about the popularity of this site. But rather the lack of interest in the fixture. In the same way that the gate was light, clearly people aren't as interested in this fixture hence the (seemingly) lower than normal post count.

On top of the team we were playing its the resignation and general malaise running through the fans. I bet there has been less foot traffic on H&V and probably less posts compared to similar stages of the past few seasons.

First time poster.

Personally I would have liked a cup run.  If certainly helped our league form last season, even though the final was a let down. 

The reality is that we struggle to compete with our first choice side, let alone make any changes.  For a club of our size to have this situation as scandalous and negligent.

I feel really sorry for Remi Garde.  He's clearly a decent guy, very calm and composed and definitely a very intelligent guy who knows the game well.  But you have to wonder how long he will be prepared to bang his head against a brick wall.

You're very brave. Give yaself a round of applause for such wordsmith.

Well we'll soon be on page 11 and we can put all this behind us.

Will someone start a West ham thread? May as well pretend to be optimistic.

And so the wait goes into the 60th year. I refuse to drop dead until I see us win this poxy, over-hyped bloody cup.
