6,000 + will travel up, with or without tickets. Letting 3,000 Villa roam the streets of Wigan would be suicide.

If we sell this out it will be **** good going with it being £45 a ticket seeing as 4,000 went once already!

There will only be trouble if Villa cause it, Wigan is full of kids who shout about nothing. Last season a solo Wolves fan ran into the Wigan crowd on the pitch and got thumped AFTER the police got hold of him Me and a few mates are spending Saturday night in Manchester then getting to Wigan for about 10am the next morning. Theres about 35 Villa going up to Manchester that I know at the moment but likely to be more as the weeks go on. Pubs in Wigan will be packed with Villa. Its going to be an invasion!

OB won't stop us from the full allocation, if anything they will encourage it. Its clear there will be plenty of Villa in the home ends. The bigger the allocation we recieve the less Villa in their end and pissing about in town. If we get no more tickets it will be chaos

It was over 1,300 the other day. Away ends going to be the worst atmosphere of the season

Millwall 3 - 0 Overpaid Tossers. What a waste of money.

How many have we sold for this? Not sure I'm ready for this game, far too soon

Get behind the boys tonight, they need us! Yippi ayyyy, Yippi ooooo!

Shitting it, 2 hours of work left, shaking like a leaf

Fantastic!

Yes indeed last night before bed! I would have posted a YouTube link, however I'm at work and the sound doesn't work.

"If" by Rudyard Kipling If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!' If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, ' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch, if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

Exactly, I and a lot of others will be on the pitch. Finally have something to shout and about and enjoy.

Ahh, see I remember an early goal and a late one that really got the crowd going, I thought we were unlucky that night I love a pitch invasion

28k average if we went down, big promotion games and the shit would see sell outs. Away attendances would be huge

I don't remember McCann being sent off? Was that 1st or 2nd leg?

Thats the thing, we didn't take our chances last time and had we taken our chances Saturday we could have easily been 3 up at ht and even at 1-2 we had chances for a 3rd goal. Tomorrow not depends on who gets the 1st goal and the timing. If its us in the 1st 15 minutes we'll put 5 past 'em. If they get it 1st theres no way back because the atmosphere will be hostile

Were Aston Villa, when did we ever do things the easy way? Even a 7-4 aggregate win over Blackburn was done in the hardest way possible. A win tomorrow would be typical Villa, as would a boring 2 0 loss. Anyone thinking this is shades of Bolton 2004(?) where we left ourselves with just too much to do?

I was next to the Smethwick and could see and hear and applause during the 8th minute. Starting in the Millenium corner and there was some in the Smethwick, I also had it confirmed to me by an Albion fan in the Smethwick that it was going on around her.

Liam, can you give us your views on the Petrov applause? As I've said the whole season I have no problem with people joining in/not joining in, however your classless scum small minority of fuckwits pissed me right off. Booing in the Smethwick during it and mocking it in the Millenium Corner Anyone notice how gobby they were inside the ground and how gobby they weren't outside? All the noise and surrounding areas were Villa fans, might as well have been a home game

Blues are at home on Saturday, its gunna be a busy day for WMP

I want the juicy bits! Haha

Thats the Royal Oak, not even 10 minute walk. For those of you on your 1st visit, you'll spend more time in ques and being searched before entering the ground, if you want to be there for the teams coming out then get there 15 minutes before is advised.

Yeah, theres always a few Villa in there

Could you post some comments from your board up?
