Here's what the Villa faithful have been saying on social media.

***hibees 7062*** · 10-08-2023 11:17 PM

..

Phil K: "Big goal for Hibs there, may well be the difference maker."

Jonathan Ridgway: "Hibs win 3-1 in the first leg. One step closer to McGinn facing his old club."

Dalian McGuffie: "Hibs it is then!"

Matt: "Commanding lead for Hibs going into the away leg. Looks like we're in store for a battle of Britain later this month."

Rustle Lee: "McGinn derby, here we go!"

Neil: "Think it would definitely be better for AVFC to play Hibs rather than Luzern. The Luzern players look like they’re intentionally trying to hurt the Hibs players. Could definitely do without that."

Adz: "Nothing against Luzern but we all want the McGinn derby don't we?"

All due respect, but who cares what they have to say? Deep down they all think Scottish football is **** and 'their nan' could do a job up here.

Sick of hearing it from them. Can't wait til we pap them out then win the whole thing.

Correct 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💪🏻

Ach. Should we get through and play them it would be the biggest shock in British football history if we were to put them out. We rightly moan about the disparity in resources and quality of player the Uglies ( especially Celtic ) have over us. What Aston Villa have is simply another level, maybe two levels, above that. I know it was just pre season, but we barely got a kick of the ball against Bournemouth, ok admittedly with a far different team than played tonight, but even so Villa are a better team than Bournemouth by some way.

Don't get me wrong, if it happens wild horses wouldn't keep me away from that game, but the object will simply be to enjoy the night, pray we don't get embarrassed and show the Villa fans what a fantastic atmosphere the fans of this club can create.

**TrumpIsAPeado** · 10-08-2023 11:34 PM

Let's just get through to the next round and beat them. Then see if they're still nice about us after.

Actually, who cares what I said before ... THIS ..... ABSOLUTELY THIS

If I were a Villa fan I wouldn't be booking anything other than hotels in both Edinburgh and Switzerland with free cancellation because we all know this tie is nowhere near over. 3-1 looks good on paper but it can all change very quickly on the night. We need to nick a goal over there and I think Vente will get us one. Still all to play for.

Spot on. We all know what we can be like.
This tie is far from over

Only tv money has stretched the English clubs so far away from us.
They’re not all the big clubs they think they are.

We'll beat Villa anaw

Good chat from the Villa fans, but Lucerne are far from finished in this tie.

**ErinGoBraghHFC** · 11-08-2023 06:17 AM

We’ll skud them tae and I can’t ****in wait to see the Prince of Pegging’s lip tripping him when we do. Can’t be doing with their pally pally stuff either, they want us because they think it’ll be a skoosh for them. **** that.

**DH1875** · 11-08-2023 07:29 AM

Do we think they would sell out against us or would a lot of their fans not turn up?

Villa Park simply not big enough to house the Hibee hoardes.

Yep. They are very excited about the first European adventure in 13 years from what I'm seeing.

13 years just to get launched out at the first hurdle by the Hibees. Almost feel sorry for them.

**DIXIHIBS** · 11-08-2023 08:29 AM

This has probably been said many times but has the date for the away game(IF we get through) been confirmed yet?

I like hearing other clubs excited to play Hibs.

Yeah, loads of hotels on booking.com, I've just booked one with free cancellation up to the 29th of August so if we don't get through next week then not lost money

The Villa ticket information is already up for their home game.

They state that attendance at this game may play a part in eligibility for tickets in later rounds (arrogant or good forward planning?). I think they will have a healthy crowd and we'll be given the usual away allocation of approx. 3000.

I got a pretty swanky looking private apartment for £60 with free cancellation until the 30th.

I have a feeling I have been totally catfished as the pictures suggest something a bit higher end than £60 but I doubt I'll spend much time there anyway.
