Makes sense for them to be in Glasgow then.

Very true. Glaswegians travelling to watch Villa is a strange one. Why Villa?

Maybe Villa fans who work in Glasgow? They are a huge club and probably have quite a few fans who live in the weege!

Aye, they must be Brummies. I can't imagine there's a supporters branch of Glaswegians who travel to Brum for every home game, but you never know. As you say, it's a big club.

Good on them. Probably brummies who have moved up here. Enroute to a Hibs away game recently we passed the Aberdeen branch of the Portsmouth Supporters Club on their way down South. Now thats a treck.

Aberdeen to Portsmouth? Now that's commitment. Wonder how often they make that trip.

I find Dingwall tough enough!

Pompey's Scottish branch go to a lot of the games in the north. Seen them at Bolton a few times and noticed their flag on the TV at York the other week.

On the day of the Falkirk semi, I bumped in to a couple of Preston fans at Glasgow Central who were on their way down to an away game at Carlisle.

Your talking well into double figures :confused:. Must have been a stag do or something. Either that or it's the scottish branch heading down south to Liverpool although to be fair, Birmingham aint that much further and dont know why they'd be in queen street and not central :confused:.

Thanks for that DH. :aok: I've always kept a lookout for Aston Villa's scores ever since they won the European Cup way back in 1982. (lost 3-0 yesterday).

They really are a "sleeping giant" of a club with a proud history, very much like our own club.
