What they Said
"The Aston Villa supporter Is the greatest.
"The Holte End is as good as Liverpool's famous Kop and given a little success it would be better.
"All those people turning out on a day that was cold and wet... I could cry for them.
โAnything at all we can do we will do.
โAston Villa is not just a club, it's a way of life for those people on the terraces - it is those people on the terraces.
"That roar that came when we equalised. It was a roar of relief. A release of pent-up frustration
"I believe this attendance means that the fans are supporting what we decided to do.
โThis is the proof that the club is greater than one man."
Chairman Herbert Douglas Ellis says all the right things.
โIt was not a good match but then you don't expect it in these circumstances.
"I'd send them out in claret and blue jock straps if I thought it would do any good [after Crowe reverted to old style Villa shirts for the game].
โThe players are looking for things like this [John Phillipsโ error as a lob into the area bounce, hit his shoulder and fell into the path of Cardiff goalscorer Clark].
โLast week it was a broken leg, this week a soft goal. Theyโll be wondering if the stand is going to fall down next.โ
Vic Crowe.
