It's not really Play Off fever it seems.

We've sold out 2k and 42k.

Boro have sold out 2k away and have 6k unsold for the home game.

Derby have a few thousand unsold for tonight and 500 odd for Monday.

Fulham have 1500 unsold for tonight and loads for Monday unsold.
I'm amazed that Derby can't shift 2000 for Fulham away. Don't get that at all.

Perhaps they are waiting to see if they're still in it after tonight....

i uploaded my 3 season tickets to my season ticket card but in confirmation email said nothing about them being uploaded. so contacted ticket office via twitter @AVFCSupport and they got back to me within the hour saying that they had all been successfully uploaded so to put your minds at rest drop them a tweet and they will confirm think it should of stated in email if it was 

I did the same via e-mail tickets@astonvilla.zohosupport.com       quick positive response

I had a dream we lost 3-1 to Derby. So in fairness, we do get to Wembley.

Getting tipped by a ram is not recommended although Dinas might disagree.

Of all 4 teams in it, we just LOOK a class apart.

I have seen nothing to suggest that there is much to separate any of the 4 teams, all have strengths and weaknesses.

Maybe you weren't watching the games then.

Please tell me how we looked a “class apart” ?

we didn't and from what I saw Sam made some sharp stops to ensure we ended up on the winning side. Still all to play for in both semi-finals.

Christ, I'm not sure that 35% possession and hoofing it to nobody on the odd occasion when we did get the ball is exactly what I'd call a class apart.  Good result and all, but come on.

I’d agree and I think from Bruce’s comments post game it wasn’t what he wanted the team to do.
