Aston Villa Fans Are Ballsy, Somewhat Lacking In Class
3/2/08

Whenever I read about bad fan behavior here in the United States, I always like to remind myself that at least its pretty tame (except when Ron Artest is involved) in the grand scheme of things. After all, over in the UK they have fans that make their Philly counterparts look like Eagle Scouts.

The most recent example of British fans taking things just a tad too far involves the horrible left ankle injury that Arsenal player Eduardo suffered last week. At Arsenal's stadium on Saturday, a group of opposing Aston Villa fans broke out into song, and of course made fun of the injured striker.

What's that sticking out of his sock,
Is it his ankle, is it his ankle

Eduardo Wwooooo
He had some silky skills,
Now he walks like heather mills wwooooo wwooooo

he used to run down the left
he used to run down the right
That boy Eduardo will run in circles for life

I'll at least give them bonus points for the Heather Mills line (which is admittedly funny) and for doing this at Arsenal's stadium. And I'll give them further credit for getting ejected and starting a brawl outside the stadium. But what may be the best thing about this entire episode is that karma has an interesting way of coming around.

Moments after Villa's fans did their stupid ass cheer in the first half, their own center-half Curtis Davies was stretchered off with a ruptured Achilles tendon following an innocuous-looking play.

Sounds about right. Stay classy, Aston Villa.

Look I am no fan of the Gunners, but seriously Villa fans. Look you have not won anything major since the Carling Cup in 1996 so your bitterness and anger for club management and Birmingham City alright.
