    Suprised the old Claret and Blue Gas Towers site opposite Matalan Island on the A38M has not been mentioned, Been derelict for a while now since they got taken down. Easy access to motorways, Near city centre and round the corner from New HS2 Station 

    Just a few units to mop up and we can have tear ups on Rocky Lane every game :D

    This is exactly where I was thinking the other day. Still Aston(ish) and walkable from town. Wouldn't surprise we one bit if it happened. Would also fit into an 'expansion of Birmingham City Centre' narrative that been talked about over the years too.

    I am! Plenty of Villans in London to be fair, pretty sure there is a supporters club as well. 

    I remember when I first moved to London (about 15 years ago) it was dead easy to get tickets for all the London away games through official channels. I went to Palace, Fulham, West Ham etc all just by booking through avfc.com. Now its basically impossible to get a ticket .. shame really. 

    Not heard of that pub ... but will look it up! 

    Ah! Been in London a similar amount of time to me then. Nice.

    Went to Feed The Yak last night. FULL of Villa fans. It's on Sayer Street in Elephant. Check it out. 

  3. Being a London-based Villa fan, I thought I'd resurrect this thread!

    Anyone generally around? And also, has anyone checked out the Villa bar near Elephant and Castle? I think it's called Feed The Yak.

  4. I wouldn't say box-to-box, but I'm wondering whether he's got it in his locker to support the midfield in defensively more than he currently has been doing. We're obviously a bit light defensively in midfield. A thought.

  5. Really annoyed with the result.

    1) Why oh why did we take Bailey off? What was Emery doing? It's the most Villa thing to do; let up when the opposition are on the ropes.

    2) Cash is done at Villa. Positionally all over the place. Shooting from dumb positions. Must be sold in the summer (hopefully someone is stupid enough to buy him).

    3) Diaby: really starting to question why we signed him. Not offering anything.

    4) Everything is too f***king slow. We were losing and walking around.

    A psychologically damaging defeat.
