Clappers, music after a goal, a drum. All the hallmarks of a no mark shit team.
It was a funny atmosphere at first.  Really loud music right up till KO made it impossible to build any atmosphere before the game.  Then the drum kicked in straight away, although I couldn't tell what it was at first as it was just incoherent noise (not really accompanied by any singing).  I honestly thought it was interference from the speakers for a while.  I think it put the Villa fans off a bit - it took us a while to get into our stride.

With no food or drink being available (supposedly because their wifi was down), it all made for a really odd start to the game. 

I was in one of the lounges thanks to a Leicester mate, and it was chaos in there. They were still serving drinks but just writing down orders, but not who had ordered them. Then at half time the staff were wandering round with a huge pile of post it notes asking who'd had three lagers or whatever.

I'd just say "Three lagers? Me!" Boots filled.

The wandering round was for the purpose of trying to collect payment which they had been unable to take because of no wifi!
