Brighton factually.....
On the match last night im sure Gary Linecoker said that Blackburn had only sold 1500 away tickets for "The SEMI FINAL" ..............:eek:

if true that is pathetic for a premiership team who are 90min away from a final.

Makes us look good though. :D

Considering Blackburn are offering free coach travel that is shocking! Match tickets are £29, but even so 1,500 out of an initial allocation of 3,891 is not very good!

Then again the first leg had over 10,000 unsold tickets, no idea how many Villa took of the 18,595 crowd.

Villa have tickets on sale, but that looks to be from selling tickets already returned by Blackburn.

We took all we could get off them (5400 I think). Blackburn have got the upper North only tonight (about 4000 seats) but have sold under 2000 the last I heard. We took back the tickets they had for the Upper Doug Ellis block and they are now being snapped up by Villa fans. The ground will be rocking tonight.

I take it Villa are taking this seriously and will be fielding their best 11?

Irrespective of our own upcoming tie I actually quite enjoy watching Villa with their encouraging football and decent young players.

Great to be able to watch them at home on my normal tellybox

What will everyone be wearing to watch this match?

Where will you be drinking?

Do you need to be a Gold/Blue member to watch it in HD?

Are there are direct trains to my sofa?

We will play what MON believes to be our best 11 which will almost certainly be the 11 that started the first leg. Personally I would replace Carlos with L Young but I am no manager. And thanks to those wishing us luck. The sentiment is returned- post Saturday!
