    There isnt one. - Must admit I do have a bit of respect for the view that they dont celebrate finishing 3rd (even if they really finished 5th

    I prefer the any excuse to party line. Best Conor's gutted that he misses out on an open bus again. Best he regrets leaving us now!

    Big credit to them. They feel they are only going back to where they deserve to be and it's not like they won the league.

    For me, a club has every right to celebrate a promotion. To claim otherwise is sanctimonious, condescending claptrap.

    It has a right - but it also has a right not to - If it was us celebrating promotion to our rightful place in the championship we would be celebrating it
    I expect had Villa won the league they would have had a celebration but they chose not to for finishing 3rd

    A quick look on their forum shows a majority of fans (that post) dont really want one and think the celebrations at Wembley cover things

    Fair enough, Dave. I'm still sticking to my opinion, though, that it's sanctimonious claptrap.

    As an aside when taking a quick look at their Forum it appears Conor was rubbish and a reason for them being poor earlier in the season but now is a great player again :) A lot of them have him as MotM at Wembley and the debate has moved on to whether he will be good enough next season but he certainly has earned a chance

    Didnt understand why he wasnt started in that first play off leg. Smith almost shot himself in the foot there.

    I like that level of arrogance. It shows they mean business.
