that's **** impressive

Dallas. What a shambles.

Youtube?

I don't know? It's not in the full re-run in this thread?.....

Has anyone seen video of Benteke's celebrations in front of the fans after the players had their huddle. Absolutely unbelievable scenes... hopefully there's footage somewhere

well that's the whole weekend ruined. Faulkner out

I thought this too BUT I strongly suspect those that got online tickets got way less choice regarding seats than people who phoned up and spoke to a person. I got my tickets online and had choice of about three high tiered blocks. No ideas of row etc. For the record I was quite early in the queue (ST with 2 FA Cup) but was quite disappointed with the options/ information. I was on at 9am on my first day of sale so wasn't exactly hanging about either. Should we get to the final, I'd definitely phone up next time. Same. I then called to say I wanted to be in the lower tier (none available at the time I logged on) and they switched them for me.....

Solid start to 2015 for Adrian Gonzalez

Lower bowl completely sold out according to the ticketing website.

Most cats will do that, especially when they are young - a small ball made from screwed-up silver paper is ideal. We had one cat who actually invented a game where she would flick said ball through the gap under a door, and you had to flick it back. We called it door tennis, and got some really good rallies going, trying to outwit each other by varying speed and angles. Her other favourite game was goalkeepers, where she stood in front of the door and you threw the ball, which she had to catch or bat away. It was bloody hard to score past her. Sick. Sounds more fun than hanging out with humans.

Nah, nothing has changed. As per the initial announcement Thursday's criteria is 5+ games of any variety.

They were never not considered.

Ticket sales phone ops very guarded about letting on how many have been sold / there are left.

We're in the West stand again. Same as CC final and FA cup semi 5 years ago. Third time lucky.

I got one of the last tickets to the CC final in 2010 with 6 home fixtures that season. Can't remember the total allocation that day but you'd imagine there was greater demand for the final than a semi-final. Yep, I got mine in the same window too. Also got an FA Cup Semi Final that season. As I say, it's only fair to give those who have bothered this season. They deserve it, having to sit and watch the tripe served up for most of the season! Agreed. Think I'll miss out this year having only been to 5 matches. Feel very silly not having bought the cheap FA tickets in early rounds or indeed a Villa Cash membership.

Not hugely different to the match at SoL last season when 0-1 should have been 0-4 or 0-5. Bacuna was class that day too. Another point (at least) v Swansea please!

you probably spoke to me before going on air

Prandelli ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Clearly a very different coach to Paul, not necessarily a bad thing, but hard to imagine the players will be afforded the same protection they enjoyed under Paul. We better hope they're ready for that? He's worked at one club and won't be able to call upon the Chris Ramsey's of this world to help him. Who else does he know? If he is to get the job, the Director of Football would need to be able to stand up to him if some of the reports of his undermining of AVB are to be believed.

People I would take: Dyche, Sherwood, McLaren, Moyes People I would not take: Southgate, Hoddle, anyone suggested 'because they know the club'

Howard Hodgson in

Yes that makes sense on every level mate

I really didn't think it'd come to this. Now it has, I can't see us recovering.
