    Just to clarify, I'm not outraged, I don't like it. Personal preference

    Not every cross is a St. Georges cross, what makes you think the one on Joe Harts shirt is a St Georges flag and not just part of an intricate design

    I do not need a convenient excuse, I personally don't like what has been done, if you do fine and more power to you.

    I'm not arguing, merely putting across my point of view. And it must be a flag as Nike themselves have said they have given the flag a playful update

    Please point out the stand alone St Georges flag below (remember you are looking for a red cross on a white background)

    I'm not outraged at all, I'm just pointing out that if a country's flag is going to be included on a country's shirt then it should be the country's colours not something that Nike and the FA think looks good. The photo examples that have already been uploaded do not just show a stand alone St. Georges cross, it is included as part of the shirt design, as I said shirt designs change with fashions and trends.

    For all I care the England shirt can be a full on rainbow, black with purple spots, hoops, stripes, etc. anything really because its a shirt that changes with fashion and trends. We even had a grey one once because it "looked good with jeans". But changing the country's flag colours is another thing, that is our national symbol, identity whatever you want to call it. Lets see how Saudi, Qatar, America would react if there flags were given a 'playful upgrade'

    Because one of my uncles didn't go on strike and my other uncles did, they never spoke to each other during or after the strike. Unfortunately not speaking to each other continued until they were dead. That's how the strike had long term effects on friends, families, and communities as a whole.

    I'm probably in that queue somewhere. Started queuing by the Holte End thinking that I'd never make it to the ticket office before they had sold out. Luckily I did and enjoyed a great day at Wembley.

    Don't see kids with catapults and pea shooters any more.

    I'm sure when John Terry was Villa captain and won the toss he always chose to attack the Holte End first half.

    I remember someone, or quite a few actually, mentioning Butty Bach ale. Well I sampled my first one the other week.........and can confirm it is indeed a fine drop.

    With all the time added on at the end of each half now, Forest actually scored their first goal after 50 minutes (45+5 additional) and their second goal after 47 minutes! But forget them this is about Villa, great result Saturday. Nice to see so many playing really well, so hard to pick MOM but for me I thought Lenglet looked really composed all through the game considering he had to play RCB then LCB. McGinn was brilliant, Tielemans I though played really well, Watkins and Bailey were their usual selves. Thought Digne steadied us as well when he came on. Ramsey looking back to normal.

    Remember watching that game on a big screen in the Aston Villa Leisure Centre

    You can get the 22:40 I'm hoping there is no extra time and penalties tonight otherwise it will be after midnight before I get home.

    As some have alluded to, the only thing you have diminishing is time. My old man (HEITS) had a paper cutting with a verse on in his wallet for years which I remember to this day: He gave his health in search of wealth to gold became a slave He gave his wealth in search of health and only found a grave

    Was coming on here to say the exact same thing. The flames, lights, fireworks, smoke tunnel (or whatever it is they walk through on the way to the pitch) might look great on telly but yeah I think it kills the atmosphere in the ground. I always stop until the final whistle, but left on 90 minutes because of the train strike, which meant if I'd stayed until the end chances are I'd of missed the last train home. I'm fed up of catching ubers after the game because of last minute train cancellations, as happened against Arsenal and Legia recently.
