CLI - watch it as my brother played for the Villa for fifteen years - he left them in '56 - they won the cup in '57..... nothing to do with him as he had suggested a plexiglas shield over their goalmouth to save Vic Potts from getting backache - Harry Parkes and Amos Moss volunteered to make it portable and changeable for both halves of the matches.... FA wouldn't buy it though - spoilsports - they are still the same to-day as an electonic beam could also keep the ball out of the net - would have helped Villa last saturday at Chelski Cheers

Your right nothing would have stopped them. Just hope it doesnt happen to Spurs when/if they make it to the FA Cup Final at Wembley.(assuming Chelsea beat Villa that is) regards Clive
CLI - That is quite an assumption as Terry and Co will find that you only do that to Villa - once - then retribution sets in..... Cheers
I thought the reason was that the Villa players kept looking in the stands to make sure their WAGs were still there!

Kevin you are getting all mixed up with Villa players and the likes of Terry - Lampard etc who must be worn out before the kick off as they don't appear to bother about anyone else's wag ! Cheers Cheers
