If there is a God he will let us win to make up for all that rain he sent us at the old Leeds Road in 1987.

I was there at Huddersfield, I think it was 50p extra to sit in the seats, me and my mates decided to stand, as soon as the ref blew the whistle to start the game, it was the signal for a down pour, that did not stop!

I was soaked, thank the lord that we won!

By the time I got on the coach my burger was more water than burger and my programme was just a lump of paper mache.

On a par with the FA Cup 3rd round replay away at Wimbledon at Plough Lane 91. Even my pants ran that night.

We simply walked out of the away terrace and sat behind Dr Jo and Peter Withe on the bench in their 'main stand'.  Another dreadful affair that was.

It's going to be an emotional night tomorrow. Let's tear Huddersfield a new one in honour of Dalian.

Minute's applause and Holte full of open brollies would be fitting.

Each Villa player to walk out holding a black brolly over their head would be a nice touch.

Randomly choose fans to hold the brolly for them.

A standard minute's applause in the 10th minute will show our appreciation for Dalian.
