congratulations, thats £41 million debt per title, one day that debts got to be paid then see where the man ure are, back in the championship

Tut Tut. Perhaps the ' mighty ' Villa will there with UTD. Villa looked like contenders at one stage, what happened?

[Manc In Black]

I started life supporting a fading team & ended up in the 2nd Division.
I don't really care what you or anybody else says,cos I remember all those matches of nothing but living on the dream that one day, you never know what.

I went to school in Ellesmere Port & had the Scousers rammed down my throat all those years, infact most teams.
77 Cup Final was good.

So close so far in 92, but ran out of steam when it counted and saw Leeds being crowned on tele drinking champagne (Lee Chapman) on the couch following a beating by the Scousers.
Then in 93 when it looks like its going against you, up pops Stevie Bruce in something like the 97th minute v sheff weds to do the business, then you beat Palace away & the same night Villa lose to Blackburn which makes the drive to Hereford all worth the while, & you even get let off the speeding ticket near Cardiff at 1 in the morning because the police are reds too - nights like that you never forget.

Then it just kept coming
& seeing Giggs come thru, the wonder goal v spurs as a lad & 99 v arsenal in the semi of the FA Cup & as for that nite in Barcelona when it was all over.

All I say is that I never tire of it.
I enjoy every minute just as you will when its your turn, because one thing is for sure, the wheel turns as sure as nite follows day, just ask Huddersfield, Villa, Forest, Arsenal, Liverpool. football is a leveller.
Its sweet today and long may it last, because you never now when its gone.

To small squad for number of games, though if offered 5/6 at start of season would have been happy

Already renewed season ticket for next season, need to buy big in summer, but knowing villa it will be at the lower end of the market

hope we send the toon down sunday, big club my arsenal

hhmm, do you think if you don't make any progress next season people will start to question O'neil?

Really hope you do the business against Newcastle, it's very important they go down with shearer in charge

The only way to break in to the top four is to spend big, just like err LEEDS, NEWCASTLE, BORO, then end up in the Championship or worse, ill settle for an FA cup win thou, far to long since last win in 57

I was out with a Geordie today, he is pig sick, of course I did not rub it in

[APOLLO79]

BIG AVFC MAN...nothin to do with the ' blessed martin'..more to do with Andy Gray and the great footballing side from '76-'83...Stood on the Holte End many times.Claret&Blue and the HOLY TRINITY.....Rd B5.....

[APOLLO79]

1957...1-0....team depleted by the 'CRASH'....Still,like Celtic we have a * and not many clubs have that in the UK....celtic man utd,the pool and unbelievably forest..twice.So only 5 clubs have won THE trophy in the history of British football.'82 was a great year to be 13,a stranglers fan,celtic and villa supporter and a fan of the best euro national team that never won the world cup that year.....France.

[APOLLO79]

Best team won

[Blackbeered]

Couldn't really be arsed to watch this tonight - I knew Utd were one down in the first half, and anyway, The Apprentice was on BBC after all.

Unaware of the final score and checking my emails at about 10pm (not long after the final whistle, remember), I found out the result by opening an email from Kitbag (an online sports store) offering Barcelona Champions League Winners merchandise

Bit bloody obvious after that eh

They don't waste much time cashing in do they
