  1. Whatever opinion you have on O'neil, he still managed to get results and shared a vision to get us to our old days, doesn't seem to be that way with any of these managers.

    "It's absolutely fantastic to be back and with a club such as this. This is a fantastic challenge. I am well aware of the history of this football club. Trying to restore it to its days of former glory seems a long way away – but why not try? It is nearly 25 years since they won the European Cup but that is the dream."

    Aston Villa just missed out on a UEFA Cup spot on the final day of the 2007–08 season and qualified for the Intertoto Cup by finishing 6th. They scored 71 goals, (their best ever tally in the Premier League and best tally since winning the title in 1981), gained 60 points which was Villa's highest points tally since the 1996–97 season, and were the third highest goalscorers.[13] After 25 games of the 2008–09 season the club were third in the table on 51 points, 2 points above Chelsea on level games and 7 points above Arsenal in 5th place and on course for a place in the Champions League for the first time since 1983

  2. Thing that annoyed me most was that we LITERALLY had all 11 men inside the box from corners. The only way we can get possession there is Given claiming it, or a lucky bounce somehow leads to one of our players running out with it.

    However, 9 times out of 10 they would win the header, or we would win a header which would set them up with another opportunity, it was literally absurd, not a single player out there to put pressure on or be an outlet.

  3. there's a large car park at cheshunt railway station, open 24 hours. used it last season for the saturday 3pm game and it was perfect. you'll be on the train with a few spurs fans, not as many as you might think, and they've never struck me as being the most intimidating folk so colours should be ok.

    my old man was wearing his villa hat!!

    make sure you head for the haringey irish centre from WHL station. let's get a few more villa in there this year. :winkold:

    Yeah we'll definitely do this then, and will check that place out, see you all there!

  4. park at cheshunt, get the train to white hart lane.

    trains run every half hour there and back.

    Just had a look, around £6 return and only <20 mins on the train.

    Anywhere you would suggest parking in Cheshunt (at the train station or?)

    Also, never been Spurs away, heard it's a bit dodgy, would it be best to hide our claret and blue colours?

  5. Well I'm coming down with 4 mates, and we originally planned on driving, however is it a bad idea driving through London? (none of us have before).

    If not, where would be the best place to park, where are people going before the game etc.

    If we don't drive we'll get the coach or the train, best routes on train?

    Cheers.
