Eight Games - Inch by Inch - Be The 12th Man

Aston Villa have eight games remaining in the 2010/11 season and need to squeeze out every last point to ensure Premier League survival. As Al Pacino said in 'Any Given Sunday'; "Either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals."

i've just been watching the arsenal one @duderihno mentions and it *is* near identical except it uses video instead of stills. it even starts in B&W and changes to colour in the same way. something i thought was completely original.

i can only assure everyone i most certainly had not seen the arsenal vid before now, there's no reason why i would have, but the similarities are beyond spooky, i can't deny that.

thanks for all the positive feedback and comments. i'm pleased and surprised at how warmly it's been received.

@duderihno um, it's *not* a rip off, i've never seen that arsenal video before, but this is a commonly used theme, it fits many sports, many people have used the speech.

in light if that information tho, i will contact the club as they've published this video on their facebook page.

you'll have to take my word for it, but i'd never have put this together if i'd seen the arsenal one.

I don't think I've seen such an inspirational football video ever...

Dear who ever made this, I let the general know about it on Villa talk in his thread.

His response was this

1. I think the motivation video is SUPERB and I know that Paul Faulkner is going to be posting it on multiple sites and locations.

@astonvillacentral @bendtnerspinkboots1

just as spooky is when it says "you're gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team..." the Villa one shows Downing and the Arsenal one shows Nasri - two players with very little loyalty!

@jhayesavfc who said I'm a Birmingham fan? Silly villa fan trying to make yourself look intelligent with your vocabulary. This video is embarrassing, I really don't see where your argument is. Shit fans

[JHayesAVFC]

@pitkin2323 Oh shut up you dirty bluenose peice of shit, were historians because were proud of our history? You fucking won the league up and havent shut up about it like its the fucking champions league or something do you realise the contradiction of you stupid blues fans? Unbelievable.

Hey guys, I made the Arsenal version & I can assure you all this is a complete coincidence. Great minds think alike! I have no problems with this....

Best of luck for the rest of the season!

absolutely fantastic video and just what we need at the moment, have to say though at 3.25 made me chuckle when pacino says "because thats what living is, 6 inches right infront of your face" lol
