  1. Ive got a story that is guaranteed to put a smile on the face! A guy my dad works with watched the game with his football team (half villa fans and half Liverpool fans). Anyway, the Liverpool fans were obviously a little annoyed post game, and to add insult to injury one of the villa lads decided it's be funny to set fire to a Liverpool flag the team manager had brought along. Turns out the flag belonged to the managers grandson. And had been signed by Stevie G! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
  2. Someone saying that as the first goal on saturfday was going wide it should be given as an own goal, and therefore Benteke would stand as first goalscorer? Does anyone know if this holds up? Im in for £300 if it does!
  3. I could accept the fine, if the baggies had been punished aswell! But to charge us and ignore the violence from their fans is shocking! I mentioned it before, but the programme on Sunday really annoyted me. Three seperate pieces about the 'crowd trouble', and only one line mentioned baggies fans. They even printed that McManaman was hit by a fan when video evidence has proved that he was the one to kick out at our fans with no retaliation.
  4. I just realised this game is on the same weekend that I'm supposed to be doing an abseil off the orbit at olympic park for charity. I hate heights and for a brief second thought id found my way out of it. Does shock at villa winning the fa cup/severe upset at seeing them lose it count as a reason not to bounce myself off a building?
  5. Did anyone read the match programme? There were three seperate articles about villa fans invading the pitch 'three times', a slight mention of 'a few chair thrown by baggies fans', a fan 'hitting a baggies player' and the ref being so scared 'he waited till he was by the tunnel till he blew the final whistle'. Unbelievable!
  6. Part of me doesn't care about the result of this. We are in a final against a team who may have beaten us extremely convincingly earlier in the season. But their fans showed this weekend that they are just there for the day out, they don't have any real passion for the cup. So as fans, like yesterday, we can go there and roar the team on and show everyone how loud we can be no matter what the result is. And hopefully the players will see that we believe anything is possible after the season we've had and may just pull off the biggest shock yet!
  7. So what have people got on tomorrow? Best odds I've got Scott Sinclair to score first and score to be 1-1 or villa to win 2-1 at 60/1 Benteke to score first and Benteke to win 2-1, 90/1 Benteke to score first and 1-1, 45/1 Benteke to score a brace 16/1 As you can tell, I fancy Benteke tomorrow
  8. http://forums.liverpoolfc.com/threads/371757-FA-Cup-Semi-Final-LFC-v-Aston-Villa-Sunday-19th-April-KO-15-00\ Bit of a mix from them, some already planning for Gerrard Day (aka, the FA cup final), some genuinely seem worried about us. Although one guy on the ifrst page of that thread did talk sense about our team until he said our biggest worry is DM because Sanchez has been playing so well lately.
  9. I bought 1 student, 1 adult and 1 child and they all came as adult tickets. I doubt they'll be checking anyway, and would probably only care if it was the other way round.
  10. If he only rocks up to the "big" games then what does he expect. As I said, glory hunter. If you can show me another glory hunter that is willing to stump up 200mill pounds of their own dosh to the club for the privilege then I'd happily give up my seat. I'm sure we could show you thousands of people who care a lot more than he does, or ever will! We're in the semi despite him, not because of him and his pocket money.
  11. If they tell you you've got the last ticket, wouldn't you be tempted to turn around and auction it off?Hmmm does it make me a bad supporter if i say yes? Not if you spend the takings on tickets for the final
  12. If they tell you you've got the last ticket, wouldn't you be tempted to turn around and auction it off?
  13. I honestly think we have a better chance against them than blackburn. They would have come and sat back and waited for us to get at them like they did against liverpool. but the dirty scoursers will come at us and that suits us more. I cant wait for this now. I start a new job tomorrow and im more focused on this being Wembley week!

  15. Take that back, fake account!
  16. The best tip I've ever been given is use STAR when describing situations and experiences in answers to questions. So rather than just answering a question by jumping straight in, structure your answer with Situation, Task. Action and Result. Situation is what you were doing, where you were working etc. Task is what role you were given or problem you were faced with. Action is what you did to tackle that task and why. And result is what the end result of your action was. I use this for applications and interviews and it's so much easier to answer questions when you structure them. Stops you rambling aswell. If you have a google I'm sure it will explain it bette than I have but it takes the nerves away when you can focus on structuring your answer. And make sure you practice before with situations you're likely to draw on so that you know where you're going to lead with it.
  17. Delph was fantastic tonight, one of few players to stand up and be counted. A true captains performance!
  18. Thought he was left on for 10 minutes too long tonight, too tired to keep it up but looked good. Still think he's too lightweight off the ball, but very good on it.
  19. He was shocking tonight. The blame is shared between him for being diabolical and sherwood for not taking him off. Absolutely gutted and it's all down to him! We'd have won tonight if it wasn't for him
  20. My brother and couson have just played this game on FIFA. My brother was villa and won 7-0. My couson has never played FIFA before but I'll take it as a good omen!
