Few seasons ago I knew a chap who felt he had been unfairly treated by the stewards. He wasn’t in a rush to get home and tried to spot the offending stewards leaving quite some time after the final whistle.

He was in luck and followed them away from the ground and was able to confront them away from prying eyes. Unsurprisingly, without 20 of their mates behind them and with no cctv cameras to deter him from forcibly getting his point of view across, these 2 chaps shied away from conflict and showed no signs of the authoritarianism on display inside the ground and were very keen to apologise and assure him that “it wasn’t personal mate, we’ll get sacked if we don’t do as we’re told”

Didn’t get a cross look from them on the few occasions he encountered them subsequently. Friendly nods all round. Pitiful.

Mostly reds as well. Shithouses. The City stewards are fine its the private security dicks.

I had one threatening to kill me on the tram station outside after the game. A full on spanner saying the tram going into town was going to London as all our fans are from London. He said if I hadn't looked like his grandad I'd be dead. Nice. He was about 6ft 6 and a nob.

My god, I hope we avoid the unbearable cunts at Wembley if we get to the final. They’d do well to remember we’ve had more fans historically than them, before and after our success. It wasn’t that long ago when they were taking a reduced allocation at the Etihad and twice in living memory we’ve had almost as many travelling fans as home fans for FA Cup ties at Villa Park.

Most (not all) Villa are not very nice and start on vulnerable people before proper scrappers.

Witnessed tonight and at Wembley. I'm no shrinking violet and have a right gob on me and will still fight (but probably get killed) but starting on a pensioner (me) and the villa fan was about 35 and a big ****.

Proper shithouse tricks.
 
Back of ss3 again was mint. I keep seeing people saying ss1 is where the atmosphere is but the back off ss3 for me is the best part of ground. A good 300 singing for 90 mins..if there was only more who could be arsed like these lads.

On a side note one of them showing me his phone number on his phone so we could meet for a fight outside. He was about 30 years old. An actual 30 year old person showing me a phone number to ring soni could fight him.
I've had to type this out on my phone so I could sort of try to make sense of it. When I eventually got out and walking back to town there was no villa fans to be seen?????

Good numbers but wank atmosphere and literally zero agro.

Nailed on as soon as he’s turned away from showing you his number he puts his phone on do not disturb.

Hello, is this the blazing squad…
 
Sounded pretty good from here in Las Vegas, back home tomorrow and on to Wembley this Sunday.

As for Villa fans, they're another one of these fanbases who seem to get smoke blown up their arses left right and centre. Whilst I think they're decent on their day, more often than not they're shocking

Decent atmosphere after a slow start. The mysterious flag in South Stand L1 caused a bit of confusion.

The atmosphere improved in the 2nd half and it was great to celebrate the winner.

Villa were decent but far from their best, as their fans on my train acknowledged.

I thought the banner was clever, and if the suits were there and saw it I wonder how many of them clocked on?

What was mysterious about it?
 
Cracking atmosphere last night in CB,SS end. A few regulars weren’t about but all were up for it. The club needs to wise up about the pricing situation though - blue gaps all through the crowd at a not insignificant game and they weren’t snapped up by insta-fans.

I agree. Wembley in particular, villa fans were horrendous. Starting on people and throwing drinks on people going up Wembley way.

Is it a midlands thing? As it’s similar with wolves and others. So many dck heads

The guy and lad on the City official post sit a few rows in front of me. The Wythenshawe Chapter of the 209 Ultras!

Anyway, good effort with the banner. I think if the Dad was wearing blue that would have helped.
