I've kept all my Cup Final scarf, so when I'm a wheelchair-bound, dribbling old man of letters who's just collected his fifth Booker Prize, I'll have it round my neck when they let me present the Villa with the Cup.

Of course, by that point, the Final will be on a Thursday night at the New Den, but I won't give up the dream.

I'd do the same, but I'm not sure I'm going to live until 31016, so I may not see our next FA Cup Final victory.

I'm looking at getting a load of the Lerner Clown masks and handing them out at home matches - not walking out on the Villa but will take the piss out of the present incumbents at any opportunity - we are Villa 'til we die

These will also be useful on the last game of the season so that the cameras don't find anyone crying.

Going to be doing it as soon as possible Amfy - don't care about cameras - you won't see me crying!

There was no crying or other signs of wimpish behaviour  on our way to Division 3.


We are are the famous
The famous Holte End

If Villa's going down
We'll all go together

And We Shall Overcome

Sing it, Comrade Pete:


 

Fuck off, middle class parvenus who have no idea of what Aston Villa is.

We are not afraid.

Fuck off Lerner, you toerag.

We are going to be okay.  No crying. Show that we the fans have the courage the club and the players lack.

I think we've all come to terms with what will happen months in advance.

If Villa are a goal up after 74 minutes, no way is anyone leaving. So desperately starved of success we'd surely want us to win more than want to walk out and not see a victory?

When i started going in the mid 1970's the 74th minute was about the time the less prosperous were going into the ground.

Good one.


Surely the ground should be full or nearly full for this kind of thing to have any impact? There will be 10,000+ empty seats at kick off anyway, and if we're losing comfortably loads will have gone well before the 74th minute. It will be a damp squib and will make us look daft now all media outlets have latched onto it. Imo either boycott completely and stay away, or stay and sing and shout and make your feelings known for 90 minutes. Like Lerner cares if a few walk out on the 74th minute, he'll already have their money and won't give a toss.

There are too many factors against this walk out for it to have any effort whatsoever.

Turn your back on the field of play on 74 minutes. That way, the already empty seats won't matter. Turn your back like Lerner has turned his.

This will only be more impactful once relegation is confirmed. While the candle of hope still flickers too many still will be reluctant to make a stand and participate in any real protest.
