Up the Villa

In the heart of the city, where legends embark. Stands the famous old stadium, they call Villa Park. A club full of honours, with a history so rich. I'm proud when I see Aston Villa on the pitch. From the very old days in the lower divisions. These days you'll remember if you are a villain. Our team Aston Villa, greatest team in the land. It's give me great pleasure to see Villa firsthand. With a lion on our badge, which is both proud and both bold, A tale of glory, forever retold. Those famous old colours of claret and blue. Who even conquered Europe in 1982. Through highs and lows, we stand by your side. Through thick and thin, we are part of the pride. To the glory of triumph, in fierce competition. A club that runs deep with so much tradition. As we stand on the terrace, supporting our team. Whilst watching The Villa fulfilling our dream. It's such a great feeling to hear those lion's roar. Villa score, Villa score. If you can get one, you'll get more!!! From the roar of the crowd to the thrill of the dream. League founders of football, are my football team. With claret and blue blood that runs through our veins. This famous old club will always remain. So here's to our heroes, both present and past. The pride of the Midlands, our legacy's cast. These Heroes and Villains, I must underlie. Keep flying the flag with Holte Enders in the sky.

I do not follow football or any team but would like to go to a match (maybe one day) just for the experience. The atmosphere must be electric. Emilia : )

It is a Rollercoaster of emotions, especially supporting Aston Villa. I've supported them since i was a boy, as did my Father. My 3 kids have followed in our footsteps and are also avid Villa fans and go to all the games. The atmosphere is electric and if we win especially. But if we lose it can ruin a weekend. UTV!! (Up The Villa) :)

Thank you Beryl. I'll be cheering us on from the Holte End on Wednesday night in the Champions League. I think this one will be a little to long to sing on the terrace. :) UP THE VILLA!!!!
