Other Villa stuff

Chelsea charged by the FA for the water bottle thrown at our bench at the end of the match.

"It is alleged that the club failed to ensure its players and/or other relevant personnel positioned around the technical area after the final whistle did not behave in an improper and/or provocative and/or abusive way," an FA statement read.

Surprisingly Chelsea's investigation announced straight after the match didn't manage to turn up who the culprit was.

I was watching highlights of us beating Liverpool 1-2 in 1993 at Anfield (goals from Parker & Saunders), and could hear the Villa fans singing ‘the bells are ringing’. Shame that has died out (the song, not the forum), I always like that song.

Me too. The original version was a favourite song of mine as a toddler. Dad had it on an LP of old show tunes.

There’s never been anything like it when belted out by a big away end. Nobody who was at the Norwich League Cup quarter-final will ever forget it.
