Re: Blues v pinks tickets
J'accuse: J'accuse Clive of editing my postings, but typically of a vileun resorting to history as an argument regarding v*lla. 1956 we indeed nearly won something but that was cancelled out in 1963 when Blues beat pinks 3-1 on aggregate in the League Cup. I know I was there to see Ken Leek score a brace. But this is history, an epoch much loved by v*lla supporters.

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
I thought I could get my mate Stu (ex-villa season ticket holder) to take up the offer for the last ticket but having seen the Blackpool game on MotD and chatting to the bloke on the train who went he could not face the ignominy of the inevitable captulation of v*lla's defence. Ticket still available.

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
Well, history repeats itself and without history there would be no context, or no contest. I too was there in 1963 when we allowed our erstwhile cousins a glimpse of the limelight, their fifteen minutes of fame, a glimmer of joy amongst the gloom. We have so much love that we just like to share it around, like giving them a point towards their relegation battle this season, we wish for them to survive and get stronger, we could then take six points a season from them without fear of the cloud of relegation depression that hangs over Stan's most seasons as they struggle to to keep their heads above water in the wake of constant striving to achieve a consistent release from the doldrums that keep them forever yoyoing back and forth between elation and relegation stupefaction, deepening their collective bi-polar psychosis. We do our bit for care in the community but sometimes we can do no more than offer a friendly smile and a pat on the back when they manage one of their insignificantly miniscule triumphs. Being a bluenose must be something akin to the feelings expressed in the words of the great Jimi Hendrix: "Manic depression captures my soul".

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
This is a good point Mouse. When Clive went on a villa board to advertise the Moors cup game he got banned. OK Clive ban both myself and yourself.

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
Roj, I've sent an email which may be of interest to you on your mac.com address and I'm trying to find someone who wishes to slum it at Stan's to sit on the other side of you. Imagine that, sandwiched between two football connosseurs, don't worry we'll point out the fine points of the game to you .

Unless you are Marks and Spencer, Unwins or trying to sell viagra (sorry your price is too high), I haven't received that email.

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
Roj I've resent it. It's from [email protected] and is an offer for 2 main meals at Strada for a tenner. You could check your spam folder if you haven't received it.

Re: Blues v pinks tickets
I don't think anybody who is a true supporter of any Midlands club could possibly be a coinesseur of football.
