They pronounce the name of their own town incorrectly when they sing and it bothers me.

Yes, I've noticed that. It's weird.

Not that weird, it’s just the Estuary English dialect isn’t it?

What was the ‘you’ll never sing that’ chant? I couldn’t make it out.

Europa Conference Champions, I think.

It was definitely “conference” something. Probably in reference to them winning the conference in 2014. Doubt it was anything to do with our current European exploits.

Anyone else notice the booing at half time when the adverts came on the screens for the new hospitality areas.

Hope the club were listening

That wasn’t the first time, they’ve been booed every game so far.

Surprisingly second tonight it seems on MOTD. I expected Liverpool would be.

One little minor quibble from today...whoever has told Dave Boulton to start acting like an overexcitable 20 year old needs to be given a quiet word.

I'm not sure when he started doing our PA but he's been on it since I've been going (1997) and very good he is too.

The stuff like shouting "Yipee aye yay" right before kick off and then over-egging the names of our goalscorers I just find very cringy. Disappointing if he's been told to change his style/tone just to appeal to a demograph of our fanbase as it's very unnecessary. It's something you'd expect to hear at a Reading or Fulham.

Not quite as bad as that one time we played music after scoring a goal which led to a revolt against Krulak on here but I'd rather it just got cut out and he announced the goalscorer in his normal professional manner.
I thought the same. Very cringeworthy. He’s no doubt had instructions from above.

This is the happiest I've seen a Villa team for years, there really seems a great connection there.

I did like their "it's a miracle" (culture club) song when Digne suddenly got up off the deck   ;D

It was very witty and rightly applauded by Villa fans.
