Steve Crossman

Mane, can I ask how old are you?

So this is as good as it's ever got for you as a Villa fan then, isn't it?

Marty, tell me a bit about your captain.

He's not bad, is he?

I imagine as well, Marnie, one of the other things about this is that, you know, you will have relatives who will have told you all, Aston Villa in my day, we were in European finals and we done this.

You will have heard all that, but never been able to see it.

And now you can see it.

Marnie, it's been lovely to have you on.

Thanks very much for talking to us and congratulations.

Go enjoy your night.

Well, that's it, Dion, isn't it?

Does anything paint the picture better than that?

I think Marnie's summed it up, hasn't he, really, with losing his voice and his enthusiasm.

And you're right about what you said as well, Steve.

This is his first bit of joy, I think, as a Villa.

fan getting to a final.

Gosh, can you imagine how many Villa fans are going to be travelling to that final?

It's going to be special.

They won't forget it in a hurry.

But this is the point they wanted to be at.
