At times I have admittedly been a critic of Mings, but always respected his love for Villa. I was so, so happy when he came on that pitch. He deserved to play a part. McGinn gets plaudits for doing promotion to European Champion, but Mings did that too and he deserves the love
We’ve got Prince William on royal duties still Bladdered
Watkins showing a personality while steaming
Youri talking out his arse pretending to be sober
Mcginn shitting on the city
Rogers being told off for swearing
Unai absolutely wankered
Martinez doing Martinez things
I fucking love this club 💜🩵
So I don't make a habit of this but I feel compelled to do so given the sports news coverage.
Villa (#avfc) have won more games in European competition than any other team over the last 2 campaigns.
In that time they've beaten PSG, Bayern Munich, RB Leipzig, Club Brugge, Feyenoord, Lille, Bologna x2, Forest, Freiburg, Celtic, Young Boys, Juventus (DRAW), Fenerbahçe, FC Basel, Maccabi Tel Aviv and RB Salzburg.
They've also beaten Citeh & Arsenal 2x in the league in that time, who have both gone deep in UCL and both have won league titles in that same 2 year period.
The fact a team like Villa has won their first European Trophy in 44 years and their first trophy in general in 30 years isn't getting the respect it deserves by the media is appalling. What Unai Emery has achieved should never be treated in such a lackadaisical way and the influencers of other clubs diminishing the competition of the final because it was Freiburg are a jealous embarrassment.
In a year where English football could potentially pickup an unprecedented Quadruple of trophies (UCL/UEL/Conference League and World Cup)...
OUR MEDIA MUST DO BETTER & OUR FANBASES MUST DO BETTER.
I know Villa listen to supporters generally after a few years of a strained relationship as the club grows and evolves into a fit for purpose 21st century club.
So I'd hope that the club would consider opening Villa Park, big screen, music and celebrate the club on the day of the Final.
Get a couple of local bands, a rousing MC, charge £10 with a free drink or two, and make Villans who can't go to Istanbul feel involved. It's their day too.
Aged 11 i wouldn't have been able to afford to go to Rotterdam but I could have gone to VP and been very excited indeed.
Lots of families who already go to games and are financially stretched deserve to feel the magic, and those kids are the future of our club. Some fireworks, music, pop and crisps for a quid, a beer for the same and all of a sudden we make the most important people at our club who can't go to Istanbul, feel a part of the pride.
Hope @AVFCOfficial gives it a little thought, I'm seeing a huge appetite for it on here.

Bayern Munich:
✅ Had lost just once in their last 10 against English clubs
✅ Were unbeaten in their last 41 Champions League group games
✅ Had the European Golden Shoe winner leading the line
They then paid a little visit to Villa Park...

I've seen a couple of live one off music gigs on VR recently, would you ever consider doing one for your stand up show @rickygervais? ... Just thinking about the people who haven't been able to get tickets or would netflix object?
