I'm saying he fans have always been great and now there's even more of them which can only be a good thing, more support, more revenue etc I for one support go to games no matter how we play but enjoy it more when the stadium is full. |

| The PM, that comment makes absolutely no sense. "Best fans in the world and now there are more of them??" Bit of a contradiction no?.. Where have these 'new' fans suddenly popped up from? The fact that a lot of them have only now decided to to start turning up to matches when things are starting to look up again surely makes a nonsense of the notion that they "are the best in the world". Where were these great fans last season when Villa Park offered some of the cheapest PL admission prices in the country?? |

I have to disagree. we might be some of the most loyal and - if you count moaning - passionate supporters, but there have been games ive been to over the last couple of years where its been surprisingly quiet, even in the Holte. Yes I'd love to think were the best fans in the world, with the best team in the world, but I actually think that were not. We can be overly negative (maybe I am being overly negative though?). The hardcore Villa fans are fantastic, true, which is seen at away games. But at home games, attendances and noise levels drop all too easily when were not doing so well. |

Best fans in the world my arse. Every other day ppl on here are moaning about no right back, constantly criticsizing MON's lack of knowlage in the transfer market, we even had a post moaning how some guy is always standing up and interupts his view.The reason more people are buying tickets is the fact we are buying a better product with our money than we have done in recent years .End of |

Cheers K4AVFC, It's what I genuiney beieve, I went to the home match against the Geordes with half a dozen mates as part of my stag weekend and at 1-0 down they couldn't believe how loud the Holte was and that was a Man U fan, 2 Boro fans and 3 liverpool fans. Same again when I took the Missus to the Reebok "Why are you lot louder when there's loads more of them" |

| To all people who have commented. The 1st comments by my name sake were that of a delusional dirty bitter blue nose. They come on here to impersonate as a supposed Villa fan which proves how pathetic their fans actually are. They can't even fill their PIG STY of a ground with a capacity of ~29K LULUS. Bunch of fags. |

I think.... that we moan a lot and we complain... PROBABLY... more than a lot of fans out there but that's because we're such a unique club. As someone said, so much promise 12 years ago and ebbs and flows since. We've been like that (young as I am I'm pretty good on our history) for years really, never consistently the top dog, at least not post WW1, so hopes have been built and then slowly faded repeatedly. That's why I think we get frustrated or wound up easily, and sometimes that affects our average attendances. However, I think that our CORE fans are the best in the league. The Holte almost always gets a lot of noise going and our away fans, I really do think, are the best in the league. I'm sure Damian opened his article about our 2-1 loss at Fulham with something about a Fulham mate of his texting him saying how our fans were the loudest of the season, and that was on one of our worst performances of the season. Blah, long, tipsy-ish message, but basically - I think we moan a LOT outside of games, but that's out of love for the club and really, we are truly great fans. |

My take on this is our away support is amazing. I took a friend from Barcelona to the Wigan match and he could not believe the support, he said that he was not sure if he was in Wigan or Birmingham!!! Mind you he is not the sharpest tool in the box. I would suggest that nearly all home fans with high expectations tend to go silent when things are not going well...And that includes L'pool who are in my opinion very over rated as fans. |

chris you are clueless!!! i am a season ticket holder om the holte end and ok occassioanlly there is a bit of atmosphere but on the whole it is very quiet for a premier league stadium!! Ask any other supporters which is the quietest ground to come and play at and a lot will have villa high up there. it has got a bit better this year but over the last 6/7 years there has been very little atmosphere. Our away support on the other hand is unbelieveable and i would say the best in the league. if we could get the holte end like the 3000 we take away each week villa park would be bouncing!!! |

ADIKAN you are a season ticket holder so I can't say much apart from everytime i've been in Holte it has been an incredible atmosphere maybe I've been lucky. NHUGGY this seasons Newcastle away was first I'd missed for a while and usually they are one of the few home crowds who can compete with our Away support |

personally you judge fans by the away support and not the home (to the guy who said bout sunderland fans - its a long way to drive not to sing!) and our away fans are brilliant, i dont go but feel proud by the stories but fair play to the club, i can get a season ticket for something like the 3rd cheapest in the league (as a student) we arent always the best fans (harry redknapp and eduardo chants) but value for money at villa is sky high at the moment hope every game will one day be like shef utd at home last season |
