For all the people that had cameras on Sunday at Wembley where are  all the pictures?
Email them to me if you can't post them on the blog and I will put them in the gallery.

Wouldn't it be good that after an important game of football the only thing people are  talking about is the actual game played. Yet again the main topic everybody is talking about is a poor refereeing decision that was in favour of manure. The sooner fergie comes out of the game the better for football in general as the power he has over referee's is frightening.

Don't get me wrong i am not saying playing against 10 men would have secured us the trophy what i am saying is these officials are governed to abide by the rules of the game and this is a case when this clearly did not happen.

Rant over now - Let's hope we get another trip to wembley only this time a happier result

After a handful of wasted hours over the past week waiting to see if the online villa shop would stock anything bigger than a large, i gave up and went to the villa shop at villa park before the Burnley game. A far superior range of sizes and products was available compared to the online store. So i take it all back villa and i was informed that the official online store is not actually connected to or run by villa at all! You probably all know which northwest city it is based in - at least we'll beat them on sunday. Up the villa.

I'll be in and around Euston for about 9.30am next week if anyone is about and fancies a quaff or 2, also if anyone is stuck for transport  i am driving, but not returning until Monday. Just let me know.

wheres everyone planning on drinking before next weeks massive game? theres a thing in the ads about a weatherspoon next to wembey for the villa, but its a 10er a ticket! so was just wondering what everyones doing so i can buy a ticket or not on sunday!

Also what soes everyone think about the possiblity of albion away? big game tuesday first!

UTV see everyone this sunday!

Is it just me, or is the range of official merchandise for our biggest game in over a  decade woefully inadequate. I want to look the part on the 28th but the online villa store has few quality items and i think the club is missing a golden opportunity. As i was so unimpressed i tried the retro gear - always a winner, but alas,  are they stocked up ready for the increased demand that a wembley final surely brings? - NO. I bet the independent traders that will be swarming all over wembley are geared up . Come on villa- sort it out.

Anybody up for this? I am if theres enough interest from the rest.

27th March 3pm Kick off. Initial allocation of 1500

£48 or £45 depending on which tier.

What's everyone's thoughts on the game last night?

Suppose you cant complain taking 4 points off the champs. Was expecting us to dominate the midfield a little more but thought Delph did well coming in. Gabby looked frustrated and hard a real hard time up front on his own. Wes Brown literally battered him all game. Carew held the ball up well when he came on. Is heskey going to be fot for the final?
