I remember some self-entitled idiot calling 5Live because him and his daughter found themselves less than welcome after celebrating one of their goals while sitting on the Holte. Can't remember the game but what did he expect?

That happened after the 1-1 in 2015 as well. The guy's son cheered Falcao's header and people around told the stewards to kick them out and he was on the radio whingeing about it  ;D

Pity OGS couldn't still have been there - apparently the new bloke is a cross between Pepe Guardiola, Sir Alf Ramsey and Jurgen Klopp if you believe all the crap they've been spouting since they obliterated the Mighty Crystal Palace 1:0.......

Beating Man United reserves 3-0 in the League Cup with Bozzie getting dog's abuse is a much better memory!

Init. We're just the invited sacrifice to the next stage of the Rangnick revolution. It's one thing drawing a tough away tie, another having to put up with all that plastic manc crap.

We're actually fucking cursed. A decent cup run? Nah, how about getting a megaclub just when they've fired the incompetent guy and hired a ruthless German. Every year.

Ah well, we beat their full squad earlier in the season, so we'll beat whatever weakened squad they put out this time as well. Fuck em.

I would love us to go there and win. Properly exercise a good few demons from the past 25 years: especially that horror show last 15 minutes on 6 January 2002.

What an appalling collapse that was.

Those 5 minutes knocked the stuffing out of us. I remember Gregory bringing on three subs with about 3 minutes remaining (took Merson off). It was just the worst.

Giving them the whole of the lower Witton aswell was such a brain dead decision aswell. Can remember barely anyone in media giving them a tough time with the pitch invasions after the goal compared to the reaction after the West Brom cup game.

I seem to recall back in the 90s a Man U (or some other glory team) fan writing into the Villa programme to complain he had sat with his family on the Holte End and got abused.

Doug Ellis printed the letter in the programme and told us it was just not on and we need to behave better etc.

Practically encouraging away fans to sit in the home ends!

Much as I hate them, they're probably the biggest globally. The Premier League and the English language have a lot to answer for.

Just noticed we play them in league at VP a week later.

Hope it's not like 2007 when we played them three times in three weeks and of course lost them all.

I think Ragnick will likely look at a few fringe players so will be a mix and match team. Can't see Gerrard going anything but full strength so we'll give it a proper go regardless of result.
