  1. I completely agree. I always applauded him when he returned to Villa Park.
  2. No chickens being counted here, but I have to chuckle at my own pessimism last Sunday night, as if nothing could stop the mighty Spurs marching on.
  3. I feel about this guy like I did about prime Gareth Barry (before the transfer saga). So classy, an absolute diamond of a footballer.
  4. Where has R.Bear heard this? And why has no-one ever mentioned it on Villa Talk before?
  5. I don’t think that’s right. The roof was replaced first. Then the stand was reprofiled a few years later for the World Cup. Externally, from Witton Lane, the stand was the same except that the grey cladding came down from roof level down to cover some of the brick work. Although I’ve never actually seen a picture from the road side of the stand when it had the barrel roof. Anyhow the impact of that stand lives on. Because Ellis technically extended it, it is the reason the current stand is too long compared to the pitch and makes wrapping into the Holte and North Stands so impractical and awkward.
  6. I don’t think so. Unless the rules have changed since Darren Fletcher was denied an appearance in the 2009 European Cup final for a dodgy booking against Arsenal.
  7. I can’t agree with that. It was virtually pink with no blue sleeves!
  8. I noticed that on the ticket site and thought they were being secretive about numbers again!
  9. My heart just broke again. That stand.
  10. It would be nice to have a pause on the price increases. Like many other thousands, I was there when we were awful. I expect to pay more now things have improved but I don’t want to be taken advantage of.
  11. Page 2 after the quadruple substitution. Not on my watch!
  12. The FA may well have told them they are not in breach of the rules. And that may just mean, “you’ve not done it yet so there is no breach, but you will be in breach if you do it.”
