robbie_villa Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Hello All Fellow Villans! Little help needed with a bet Ive had with a Geordie friend I have. We were talking about our surrendering of the FA Cup game against Man City. GH apologised to the 900 fans that went up to the game. Now I said that GH has got his facts wrong because there was definately more than 900 fans that went to the game. So we had a £50 bet. I will win the bet if I can prove there was more than 900 Villa fans at the City ground. I am sure we did just need some proof. Any ideas lads and lassies? Cheers UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 There were around 2500 - 3000 of us. How you are going to prove it I don't know. Maybe get in touch with the ticket office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisvilla Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 could be difficult to prove but there were definitely more than 900. probably double that tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THIS...also see if you can get your hands on a Manchester City programme since the game, either off a mate or ebay...in their programme they tell you the amount of away fans that go to each game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 You could try looking at a few match reports on sky/ avfc.co.uk/ bbc. It might list a rough amount of Villa fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoody Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Our initial allocation was 1,200... surely the fact we increased our allocation is proof we took atleast 1,200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisvilla Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 on the subject of man city away, has any video footage surfaced of the fans during the last 5-10 mins of the game? it was absolutely fantastic to be a part of but i havn't had the opportunity to relive the comical scenes.

maloneyt Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I've got the headers on video from tv when I got back, it was great. Just search villa fans heading ball against man city on YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuintonK6 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I was there mate there mate and still waiting for a refund as the reserves are usually free to watch. There were around 2000 of us who Gerrad Houllier ripped off that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
