So they're planning for months, and at the last minute Bladen realises they're not running trains? Yeah, alright. He's wanted to shove Villa fans on coaches since the cup game, he'll be buzzing.

This! 

Its no coincidence in my eyes.

Because its 10 mins in a taxi, or an hours walk from Aston. Or 20 mins walk from town. Max

Not quite that quick after though is it, what was it over 2 hours last season back to Brum.

It's two hours anyway with the lock in. Each to their own, but I don't see the need for coaches, its Bladens wet dream. Hope everyone does their own thing and **** him over.

This.

 

Where legally does it say that the police can keep us in?

 

Is it not false imprisonment?

We'll be kept in for ages but the coaches won't be leaving until we've been escorted away anyway so they'll be in even longer. Don't use the coaches make it as difficult for the police to treat us like 2nd class citizens. We've been to Blues liars if times. Trouble free and been allowed out at the same time. Why can't they close the road off at the away end  and just march us to Aston straight away?

IT was a request by someone in the supporters club last year thats how they get round things. Because one person asked for it, we've all got to put up with it.  Do WMP really think blues would actually be brave enough to try it on with 2100 people?

They are rejoicing anyway on twitter as 16 coaches are going apparently proving the city is theirs. 

They brought 15 coaches and had 2 special trains put on for them last year. They regularly bring coaches to Villa park. Coaches are only on this year for us because of the railway lines being down for "repairs"

Just remember these are the same fans saying we still haven’t sold out the away allocation. Scum

Ball ache being kept behind last time. They then walked us to duddeston station and the Train wasn't for 45 mins so we ended up walking in to town probably some 2hrs after the final whistle when we got in the old stock.

We're considering the coach options as will be less of a faff fest then just get the train back from Witton. 

Good excuse to be having breakfast in the Aston Social at 8am then just a short walk to the North Stand car park. 

Roberts ya fathers brother!.. :P

You need to take a long, hard look at yourself in the mirror if you go on one of these.

Why?.. Assuming you didn't go last year mate as it seriously took the pi55. 

Took us cira 2hrs to get back into town.

You assume wrong, I was there.

 

Half the fun is the walk to the ground!

And the more people that use them the more grounds WMP have to make the game a 'bubble fixture' where coaches are obligatory and then the derby as we know it is over.

 

It's playing right into their hands and enabling them to treat us like second-class citizens, dictating where we can and can't go.

I think the coaches got let out at the same time as the walkers last year afterwards didn't they?
