How popular would it be if Aston Villa were our first opponents at Falmer?

Besides the historical link, of Villa being our opponents in the Charity Shield, just think: Whingy would get to play if he's still around with us and it would further the love-in between the two clubs as we would be able to return the hospitality provided to us?

I'd rather we had ramp up events, with the first first team fixture being a league game

the 'love-in'? you mean we played them in the fa cup?
i'm sure we can do better if you want someone with historical ties than villa!

i'd agree with WW too that i'd much prefer it to be the first league game...

That is one of the worst links between clubs ever.

The Villa game has finished, time to move on.

I don't think it would have been a love in had we won.

I'd like us to play Doncaster in the first game, personally.

Name: "Grand Stade" (New Stadium)

I thought, although my French is rather rusty these days, that 'grand stade' would translate as 'large stadium' rather than 'new stadium', which would be nouveau stade?

What about Spurs , West Ham and all the other recent big away cup matches? :angry:
