    What was Villa's attendance in the FA cup 5th round mate?

    Could have been worse.
    2 games in hand to Brighton and Blackpool. Much better goal difference. Play-offs has to be the aim. Reading will Pip one of West Ham and Southampton. I think getting 4th is important so we can avoid whoever finished 3rd until the Final.
    I'd love another day out at Wembley.

    Is there a deal for the remaining 5 home games? I think I might go to them to guarantee Play-off tickets.

    Very, very disappointed today, we should have beaten Coventry with ease, although we have games in hand, we can't guarantee we'll get anything from them on this sorta form.

    Apparently some of the boys look shattered. I think Curtis needs a rest, replace him with Pablo, need Murphs and Carr back in ASAP, ACN has absolutely ruined N'Daw. Rest Burke and play Redmond, and play Ziggy and Erik, leave Marlon on the bench for a while. Really just need a bit of luck to get on another good run.

    Also There's the link for the final five

    What do you think is the likeliness that I will be able to get a ticket for the reading game? Can't really afford final five at the mo and I'd like to take my best mate to her first football game and I think that'd be the best one to take her to. Do you think I'd need 2 client reference numbers?? Thanks

    Given that it's the last game of the season, and there will be a lot of interest in it from both sets of fans you will need a previous booking history for it I'd imagine.

    If your dad's not going you could use his Client reference number for her? When I got the chelsea tickets I just phoned up and assigned my mates ticket to my brother.

    Im just thinking about the playoff semi and Wembley to be honest, don't want to be at the back of the queue for either!

    Hey? We're not gonna sell out at home to Reading, regardless of when we play them.. You'll get tickets just fine imo.

    We will if we have to win to guarantee a playoff place. Like Sheffield Utd game back in 2002. Grainger and Horse goals iirc. Those were the days.

    Literally a few months before my time that Sounds awesome though. Grainger and Horsey two of my favourite Blues players of the last decade and probably will be ever.

    Do the local Asians in Bordesley/Small Heath support Blues?

    I don't know, why don't you go ask them?

    I see asians down St. Andrews when I go but I don't see the need to ask them where they hail from.

    I'm Asian, I've lived in Bordesley/Small Heath my whole life and supported Blues my whole life, I know a small group of other Asians who support Blues but apart from us, other Asians mainly support bigger teams, Man Utd are most popular, followed by Liverpool and then Arsenal. Also, Carr and Murphy still out, Mutch banned, everyone else fit. Anyone going to Leicester tomorrow?

    £30 a ticket. Don't think so.

    You know any Asian Villa fans?

    Pfft, I paid £36 to watch us play Leeds on my own. Easily worth it.

    That would have been. Unfortunately we aren't enjoying the same form as that just yet

    Pah, I genuinely reckon we'll win tonight. It's the sort of thing we'd do really; fail to beat the crap teams but turn it on against he top ones.
