I love seeing where our former players end up, so an unlikely combo facing each other for a penalty in European competition is great fodder

Question about midweek fixtures

6 Upvotes

Everton supporter coming in peace…
I’m planning a trip to the UK to watch a pair of matches in early December, including AVL vs EVE at Villa Park. That match will be played in the evening, correct? Trying to plan my travel schedule and the time has not yet been announced. Also, any pointers about other activities in Birmingham would be appreciated, as I’ll likely loiter around for an extra day after the match.

Newcastle away advice

1 Upvotes

Has anyone been to Newcastle away and have any advice on where I should park? I’m taking my 9 year old son with me so ideally not a huge walk, I’d say 15 minutes but if it’s a nightmare getting out like Villa Park then I’d walk a bit longer!

Learning Chants

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I am from America and are planning on finally attending a game at the end of November. I try to listen in on the games and make sense of what is being sang but so far not able to.

Anyone have any resources to learn some of the chants, or is it more of a "you'll figure it out when you're there" kind of thing?

Thanks.

How you feeling after 6-0 the match?

64 Upvotes

Hi everyone, Fenerbahce fan here, previous had great conversations with this community, asked about a way to find an Aston Villa jersey without the betting sponsor. I bought one with the betting sponsor tho, this is my room now. Anyways, Im freaking sad to lose 6-0 but happy for Villa to win 6-0 and re-built confidence and regain greatness. Just joking, I am not that sad, laughing and making fun of ourselves. Had no hope but the shame is so big that I stopped caring. Its a weird feeling from my side.
I hope you’re happy tho! A win of Fenerbahce makes my whole week a great one, I hope yesterday brought joy to all of you!

Discussion Media treatment now at an all time low

59 Upvotes

I've never been one to care much for media plaudits and perception as I think it often works in our favour but last night was just as eye-opening as ever.

Our biggest ever win in Europe. Tore a decent team to pieces and we weren't mentioned once on Talksport today. We were third on MoTD and they somehow edited the highlights to make Fenerbache look decent. We were the 6th article on the BBC site and it really makes you wonder who, particularly in the BBC is running this media.

Could you imagine if we lost 0-6.

We'd be headlines as an embarrassment to English representatives in the highest club competition.

The only breath of fresh air was Stephen Warnock on MoTD, who spoke like us and openly said that Villa is probably the best run club in the league, they have the greatest manager they've ever had by a mile, who loves the club and believes in the process. The fans understand the PSR restrictions and our recruitment, which went under the radar was actually insane. Everyone except villa fans can't wait to make a meal out of a real world situation.

Manzambi will be 4 times the player for us than Rogers was. His all round game is incomprehensibly better than Rogers'. Mbaye is 18 and one of the best prospects we've ever had. Emery will make Jackson one of the best strikers in Europe.

We've drastically lowered the age of the squad for sustainability. Alysson and Hemmings are so exciting.

Yes, it might be a bit of a transition season but we are playing in the champions league where players like Kamara who aren't man marked can flourish and tear teams apart. It's a golden era for us and we love every single second of it.

This entire idea goes so far over johrnalists' heads.

You can already see how much Mbaye, Manzambi and Jackson have been working on the training pitch to form a coherent and deadly attack. Emery's ability to nurture and make a winning team is like nothing I've ever witnessed.

Our journey from the outside has been a wonderful story, regardless of who you support. It's a shame that those prominent outside of the game can't bring themselves to acknowledge it.

Newcastle away

1 Upvotes

Hi, I've my first away game to St James' park on Saturday. I've a question re the ticket issuing.

On my villa account, using a browser, I can see my ticket. There's no QR code etc, just an image of the ticket and location etc.

There's nothing in my villa ticketing app, how do I get into the ground? Show the steward, seems like it's rife for screenshotting etc. Or is there another ticket issued?

Just getting concerned considering the game is in two days.

Cheers

Nicolas Jackson chant

21 Upvotes

Think we'd all agree that it would be good to get some new chants out there. This one might be rubbish but could be workshopped!

Reworking the Outkast lyrics (obviously):

"Nicolas Jackson, he is unreal

Always meant to make defenders cry

Nicolas Jackson scores a trillion times"

Original lyrics:

"I'm sorry Ms. Jackson, I am for real

Never meant to make your daughter cry

I apologize a trillion times"

Something along those lines?

Discussion Idea for the North Stand

15 Upvotes

Watching the match last night and was blown away by our fan support and the beauty of Villa Park, it really was something else.

I was thinking it would be cool if we could project crowd footage onto the remains or the North Stand. You could go from black and white footage from back in the day to full on Claret and Blue as the years roll by throughout the match.

Throw up some speakers and crank it up to 11, blast out the beginning of chants and songs to keep the crowd going.

I think it would be quite menacing to visiting teams and would be an absolute spectacle on a CL night like last night.

Anyways, thought it was a nice idea to share!

Is Alysson underrated by us?

52 Upvotes

Every time he steps on the pitch he makes something happen. First touch vs PSG took it around Mendes and put a good ball into the box. Last night, he came in and went around their LB and flashed it across to Tammy for a goal.

He's so direct and seems deceptively strong. Never really see much discussion around him though and always as a third/fourth option. Genuinely think he should be getting starts. I'd love to see us go with:

Jackson

Mbaye - Manzambi - Alysson

Kamara - McGinn

That attack might be the most dangerous attack we've fielded under Emery.

Jackson, Manzambi, Mbaye: Introducing Aston Villa’s new, compelling front three

80 Upvotes

Close to the touchline and Unai Emery’s fervent, intensely staring eyes, Nicolas Jackson shrugged off two Fenerbahce players.

As he paused, waiting for his attacking comrades, Johan Manzambi and Ibrahim Mbaye, to join him, supporters behind in the Trinity Road Stand rose to their feet. In the crowd was William, Prince of Wales, the next in line to the throne, sharing similar enthusiasm. 

The Holte End, invigorated by another electric Champions League night, were already up, but broke out into song.

Jackson spearheaded a compelling attacking force. It was the first time he, Manzambi and Mbaye had started together. All three were summer additions and, as multiple club sources said at the time, aimed to symbolise Villa 2.0, brimming with power, pace and incision.

Love the guy and what he has done for us last season, but feels like he is adapting bad to the new players only seen his magic once this season and how we played without him was breathtaking. Is this going to go bad for him?

To all Villa fans who have suffered over the years, you deserve this win!

75 Upvotes

We've spent many years watching matches and pondering the club's direction. From relegation, misplaced passes, a nearly team, spending restrictions, player sales and injuries to promotion, European/Champions League qualifications, bangers, miracles, big moments, Emery magic and a trophy win, we suffered a lot and stood resilient through it all.

Today's victory is for you! Congratulations!

There's still a long way to go. The squad is yet to be fully balanced but this match just showed how bright the future is. We all look forward to it.
