Fantastic support

Sounded great on the stream I was watching.

 

As opposed to the Villa fans who booed their team off at half time, booed them off at full time (despite them putting in a spirited late attempt to claw something back), and were even ungracious enough to boo when Shaw was being stretchered off - bunch of classless idiots. I expect it's the same fans who got all shirty when our home fans committed the heinous crime of failing to join in with their 19-minute clappy thing earlier in the season, despite not having a clue what it was all about.

Yeah we were good... maybe something to do with the Villa stewards were pretty relaxed about us standing all game?

 

We were in the front row of the upper tier. The stewards said that they'd enforce sitting for those of us in the first rows so if we wanted to stand to go back a bit.

 

A very sensible position for them to take I thought.

I was in the lower tier right next to home fans. Stewards were really good. Even had a laugh and one of the guys said you have to beat this lot - they are ****!

Why are their people dressed up in berets and fake moustaches?

 

Overall though not too bad, a few fatties and weirdos but certainly better than tinsel hats and clown suits.

 

The angry looking fellow in the bobble hat at 0:18 brings a bit more respectability to that video.

The Villa fans I chatted with on the way back were complimentary. I've never had that great an opinion of the Villa fans, but they were all really quite nice today, maybe a little humbled and chastened by recent experience.

 

Enjoyed it from my seat in the bottom tier. My voice is raw from chanting 'yellows.....'

Sorry but no, our support wasn't great at all. Spent most of the game singing on my own in the middle of the bottom tier. I was surrounded by a bunch of proper weirdos too.

 

You post this every week!

 

Why do you go to games?

 

What do you think's going to happen if you buy one tkt at random and go on your own?

 

Where do you sit at home games that's so much better?

 

I wasn't there today but our support came over really good on the stream I watched; reaction on here fro those that were there is overwhelmingly positive. I really would advise you find something better to do with your time and money if you really don't enjoy it.

It definitely helps at away days to be near others who want to start up chants and sing too. If you get clusters singing all the way through the game people join in. Atmosphere was great from my seat in Q1, Row L. Good bunch of lads singing and giving the awful Villa fans some stick.

They are probably posting on another forum about the weirdo stood in the middle of them who spent the whole game singing on his own.

He could at least have worn some decent Trainers.

 

He was mocking TCWTB so was going for the complete gimp look.

 

 

 

As for OP, our support was OK, good numbers but for 3,000 probably not as "fantastic" as maybe it should have been. Good at times but having lost a number of chants from the promotion years now very limited. "Yellows, Yellows" and "OWTS" every 5 minutes is a bit lame and tbh, boring. And now we only seem to get the lazy slow rendition, OK when we're cruising but not particularly inspiring support for the players out on the pitch when we're still in a contest.

 

Small rant but takes nothing away from a top result. Things are on the up.
