LOL.... A few beers, well a lot actually... and you'll be right. Hopefully it's a big one V Adelaide/Sydney or Heart for your first.. So you should be right for a while.

Got to admit it wasn't that hard to adjust to after Palace. Certainly well used to disappointment and crap.

One thing they do really well here, is you get the after game function where you get to talk to the players. When we take our kids they love that. We go with other people and the Girls delight in making the younger players blush. Our Kids dont go so much these days.

Really enjoyed going to Villa park and Elland Rd.... bloody lifetime ago now. Was fully terraces back then.

Do they still have the A V shaped floodlights ?

Its been 6 years since I have been to Villa Park But I'm pretty sure the floodlights are round the stands now.
Back to your opening subject - I think FFA loosing the World Cup has made them swing out at anyone that irritates them and they really should look at themselves rather than trying to kill the game in Australia for good.
