Meh... he's a moron, but he's just one player who you can easily just ignore, and Villa are an otherwise more likeable prospect than Fulham and their fans.

Big question though, if Villa lose, will Terry put on a Fulham shirt and gatecrash the celebrations?

The real big question is whether or not we will finally find out how old Sessegnon is.

I could actually go to the final if I wanted, if there are tickets available when it gets to my bracket... as I have a previous booking history with Fulham (sat in the home end for the 4-2 loss in 2015 and in the neutral end for the 5-0 loss last year)... that would be interesting.

I have the offer of two free tickets in the Fulham end, Might take my eldest as a distraction from his GCSEs but both of us will be very :| at the prospect of either side going up.

genome Think Villa will do it. Loads of experience in that squad - Bruce, who has won a playoff final recently, Terry who has obviously played in numerous big games at Wembley, and others

Would rather they win than Fulham tbh, regardless of Terry.


Indeed. Villa look a solid unit. Fulham defence has never convinced me it's that great.

Terry came across really well after the game, and especially in his little bit with Jack Grealish. Turns out that he's been helping the younger player through a few issues.

Decent town Telford.


Having been raised in a town in Shropshire from the age of 4 not far from Telford, I know the place pretty well. It's ok, and the town "centre" is finally getting a face lift, after being built as a shopping centre in the 60s, and is now having some other infrastructure put in place to support it. Ironbridge is lovely though, and there's a nice day to be had exploring Shrewsbury too.

Went to a conference there last year - was really impressed with shopping centre and leisure facilities provided for such a smaller town, compared to Reading.

I have more of an issue with people thinking that Telford is anything but a shithole.

Fulham look so much better than Villa right now, deservedly take the lead.

Hoping Villa equalise and that there’s a game worth watching with two teams giving it large. Not sure whether I want obnoxious Fulham or horrible Villa winning. So a mass scoring frenzy and loads of handbags would be good.
