Just hope that JT referees the match as normal tonight.

 I have to share this, but i was talking to two Liverpool fans at work today - shows how blinkered they are with football, they didn't even know that Terry played for Villa!!!!

How can you be a football fan and not know about other teams? One of them is admittedly a fair weather supporter, who has never been to Anfield. The other one however is a season ticket holder 8-/

I can understand that, I had no idea who two or three of the players were who made the last England squad. One of them played for Liverpool.

I saw the probable England squad today and didn't know half of them.

Was in a pub in chichester on saturday and a couple of locals in there had no idea either. The championship is a long way from the premier league.

Me neither. It's not altogether surprising but I've really switched off the PL and most other football since we went down. I catch highlights here and there and watch the odd game, but I couldn't tell you in any depth about what's taken place or certain players coming through.

Have not watched a single Premier League game since Villa went down, and have not watched 'Champions' League games for years. I did follow lower league highlights on Channel five before we went down and tbh I find it more interesting than the exploits of the 'top clubs'. The Premier League and European games hold no interest for me if Villa are not involved.

Surely he’s due to score the winner against Fulham.

Same here. Similarly, I haven't watched Formula 1 since the mid-90s.

Class again tonight, only disappointment for me this season is his lack of goals. Wasn't he the highest scoring defender in premier league at Chelsea or something?

I remember him scoring v Fulham at VP, not sure he's scored another for us.

Agree. Not been interested since Mansell retired!

I do regularly go and watch motorsports though as I have a friend (business partner) that races an MG. Great fun.

There's a clip on Twitter via the clubs official account of the celebrations at the final whistle. The final bit is Terry with his arm around Grealish leaving the pitch and down the tunnel. Say what you want about him, but he's been a massive positive influence on Jack. Nobody would have imagined that when he joined and it is something we all hoped from and let down badly by any number of senior pros over the past few years who just watched the club sink and even contributed to it.

you can colour this any way you like - without Terry we wouldn't be in the final because we wouldn't have even made the play offs. And I never thought I'd ever feel warmly about John Terry. wTF!

This maybe true, but I doubt it would have been allowed out at this time. The timing is terrible.
