  1. I agree but @Chindie hasn't yet confirmed they know for certain the neighbour knows where the parcel is which, short of the neighbour knocking on every local door and asking 'do you have my parcel?', they can't even collect it. It seems like more time has been spent on this discussion than just popping the parcel to it's rightful destination.
  2. I've had a couple parcels stated as 'delivered to a neighbour' without saying which neighbour it was, so there's a chance your neighbour might not know you have his parcel and therefore can't collect it. If it's annoying you, why not deliver and be rid of it?
  3. Interesting that the public capacity of the Villa Warehouse is as high as 2500. Does anyone recall the public capacity of the previously proposed Villa Live?
  4. I think the back 10 rows of the Holte Upper is being changed to rail seating (but not sure if it's all being completed this summer - there must be some back of the Upper VTers that have been notified??), permitting those fans to stand 'legally'. Therefore anyone buying Lounge access which includes 19 Premier League tickets will be asked which of the available seats scattered across the stand (i.e. those not occupied by existing STs), do you want? Towards the back with rail seating but note that people could stand in front of you, or the front two-thirds rows in a standard seat.
  5. I think there's already a fairly high majority of the Holte Upper already taken as season tickets that would be occupying seats concentrated from the front centre but fanning out sideways and rearward in an arc. There's been no news of season ticket holders being asked to move to make a block of seats available. As such, I still can't see how the Holte Lounge buyers, who are buying without an existing Holte Upper season ticket, can be sat together in a big block, unless it's on the left or right edges of the stand which are probably less populated with season ticket holders because it's a poorer view. I have noted the image of a block of 1050 seats (21 rows of 50 seats) shown in the invitation emails, but can't help think this is a misrepresentation. I'm fascinated how this is going to work.
  6. The gambling companies will have looked at last season's league position and then popped Chelsea and Spurs back to their 'rightful' positions - pushing us down from 7th to 9th. I doubt there's been much movement yet from actual money bet to change those odds, but in any case there's hardly any swell of opinion, outside of our fan base, that thinks we're about to bust into the top 4 or 5. On the upside, I think the longer we remain under the radar, the better.
  7. That we had to wait for the Marvelous money to buy someone covering Nakamba's position does not speak well for NSWE and proves Purslow is still pulling the strings from his lair.
  8. Witton station in 2123 just needs Mings' skeleton. In a Villa kit.
  9. Appears to have changed from when I looked soon after they were available. I'm assuming it was a site glitch.
  10. They'll be waving their programmes and lanyards back in retaliation!
  11. I did see a copy of the email appearing to show a large block of seats, with some very strange seat numbers, but I'm not sure accommodating the new Terrace View members in a single dedicated block will be possible unless they're relying on the vast majority of members already having season tickets and keeping they're own that are seats scattered across the Upper Holte. The capacity of the lounge is up to 1000 and there won't even be a block of a couple of hundred available without moving existing season ticket holders.
  12. Pride rewards, huh, yeah! What are they good for? Absolutely nothing!* Say it again, y'all! * possibly a drawstring bag
  13. Hopefully they'll price according to the opposition. Plenty of less known teams so hopefully we'll see £20 or less for some of the games and a fuller Villa Park because of this.
  14. The kick off was delayed by 10 minutes so I'm assuming our team arrived a bit late (team bus in traffic?) and were warming up around 3pm but Walsall decided to stick to their usual timing routine.
  15. Brighter second half with chances to win it. No apparent injuries so exactly what was needed from the first preseason friendly.
  16. Hopefully it'll be clarified either going out on loan or a minor knock.
  17. Feeney attempted clearance puts it on a plate.
  18. I think Woodward is freelance so if he's not first choice for a Villa game he'll try to get a game elsewhere.
  19. Great! If Diaby starts running now he might be at Bescot to play the second half.
