Morgan Sanson - On Loan at Nice

OK then. Venezia away in Europe. I think you can only get there by boat.

Road and rail connection from the mainland.

[thick_mike]

Whoops, sorry about that!

For the record; left side, Tiswas, Celtic and obviously “up”. I stood behind the floodlight as a nipper, then used to stand up the back first half and down the front second.

While you're all on the subject, one I could never understand. We all follow the Villa, over land and Sea... And water. Aren't see and water the same thing?

No.

I agree but assuming we are not including crossing rivers by road or rail bridges, can you give an example of a Villa away game that would involve crossing water that is not sea.

The bigger question is why would one exclude crossing rivers by road or rail bridge?

That is absolutely following the Villa over water.

The chant doesn't make reference to how much easier modern transport infrastructure make that following.

Up

Left Side* - Swap Shop - Hibs & Celtic

*Beside the base of the floodlight.

I refuse to believe that there isn’t a single ground somewhere in the world that is on an island in the middle of a lake or some such.

If you ignore the couple of hundred yards between the Fiery Holes and Rocket Pool, you have to pass over water to get to Tipton Town.

Belter of an away game.



(Henningsvaer in Norway, but probably more of a pitch than a stadium)

Malta? or am I getting the wrong end of the stick?

[john2710]

Left side, above floodlight. Definitely off.

Reckon a good lawyer could argue that a trip to the Lower Holte bogs at half-time involves a journey over water.

I would say you would struggle to find a single game home or away that doesn't involve crossing water in that case !

Why sing a song which in effect boasts about your undying loyalty because you parked the other side of cuckoo bridge ? Then walked over the fazeley canal ? That canal and bridge was there before villa park was built which puts paid to your modern infrastructure argument !

[Hookeysmith]

Late 70's early 80's lower holte ,right side bottom corner.

Definately "get into em and fuck em off"

Why on earth would you want to do that.

Just found the same place by Googling but it seems to be connected to the mainland by road so banned for reasons that I'm not really clear on.

[Richard E]

Send the RAF over to destroy the link to the mainland and it’ll count then.
