Worst was villa fans kicking a disabled fan in a wheel chair shocking mate :shock:


They got their rewards mate, I seen it from across the road, they carried on chopsing the man in the wheelchair without realising they were surrounded by a few cardiff old heads, they went down the road and got just what they deserved. Absolute cowards.


Low life as far as I am concerned.

I went to villa and didn't see a fight so don't go thinking it was serious.

I walked around the stadium after the match with my young son and his pal, didn't see a sign of any bother. We were also on the upper tier for the game and didn't see anything happen there. We went to the club shop after the game for a look around whilst the traffic died down and then on walking back to the car, saw our coaches leaving and the boys did the Ayatollah - the first two coaches did it back but the third put their two fingers up! Must have thought that we were Villa fans the miserable sods. :lol:

I was in the Upper Tier, and walked out of the stadium towards Witton after the game.
There was the usual chanting as the City fans walked towards the parked coaches. There was a police van parked up with lights flashing and the police standing about.

Then some Villa fans got involved with a few sporadic punch-ups and slaps. The police kettled a group of about 150 City fans up against the raillings, as much for their own protection as anything as else. It seemed to be all over fairly quickly, but I didn't hang about.

You would have thought that the area from the away section to the coach car park would be much better lit.
Some of the stewards inside the ground had body cams on, and after the smoke bomb went off in the lower tier they seemed to be pointing out people of interest. Can't believe how daft some people are.
The Villa section nearest the City fans seemed to be a bunch of jokers too. At one point the over-zealous stewards seemed to awe into the Villa fans to hold them back. Not that they were ever going to get near the City fans.

As a Villa fan, I saw nothing yesterday, although I don't hang around at full time. I'm in the same stand as the away fans and when I got outside, there were od bill (and even some young bill) all the way up the road, every 20 yards. When I reached the Holte End, there was a group of old bill outside. I've never seen this before, all season. Also, I read in the week that you had sold out but that away allocation was smaller than usual (a section downstairs remained empty). I would say your FI has got to know that a lot of your lads would be travelling to this one. Why anyone would want to throw a punch at football in 2016 is beyond me though. I'm surprised anyone would want to target ours as a day out though. I'm not sure if we even have any active lads these days and the drinking around Aston/Witton is hardly worth crossing the road for, let alone crossing a border. Besides didn't you all have a big turn out a couple of years back when we played you in a cup game and for some reason, you had a love in with our charming neighbours?

As for the wheelchair. I find it hard to beleive. The one thing that Villa don't do is bully and our own people would have pulled anyone who started something with a bloke in a wheelchair. The story has probably been exaggerated as these things often tend to.

We got there late so about 15 minutes before KO. I did notice a few Villa fans near the away entrance who were hanging back. To be honest, they looked like Jeremy Kyle candidates in need of a good feed who I would have snapped with one blow of my flaccid cock had they said anything. I would have then 'teabagged' them and posted the video it on social to further embarrass them and to add to my reputation as The Teabag King. My Hot Chocolate Youtube Channel now has 2745 followers and growing but its a challenge squeezing one out at the right time.

av3 i was on the train and caught a train from aston to chester road before and after the game and didn't see a single problem apart from verbals as it normally is .

had a few in the yenton before and after the game no problems . mind you you had a few odd balls giving the fingers to the ccfc coaches going past the ground - lol

villa park another one to chalk off the list , pity about the result

The Yenton is a strange choice. Were there many of you in there? It used to be quite a big Villa stronghold back in the day. I heard the whole place went up after the recent derby with Blues (Villa v Villa)

You did the exact right thing drinking a few stops away from the ground. Drinking around the ground is the pits for away fans as there are only 2 shitty pubs that let you in.

For me, it would be the city centre and train in or the opposite direction (like you did) on the same line.

av3 i know the area very well as i used to work near there and yes the yenton is/was a massive villa pub . was a pain for me when england played and the pub was packed to the rafters when i worked there . lol

i met a few people i know from that area who wanted me to go with them in the holt end but i wasn't having it and got a ticket with our fans in the away end . had a night out there and got back this afternoon

think the local railways should put extra trains on after the game as it was a case of squashed sardines after the game !

Saturday was very nawty, there was a good mix of young and old heads going toe to toe with the villa mob 5 mins away from the stadium, claret dripping everywhere, we sent the villa running back chasing them down the street? They run straight towards the old bill shit themselves
