alreadyexists Posted October 15, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lovely big crowd for this, it’s going to be great. Under the lights, roaring villa fans, brave new era of management... it’s enough to give you goosebumps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Need to really get behind the team on Saturday. Have not got a clue how we will do tbf, but I think the players will be up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I'm feeling good about this one. Impressed with Swansea and potter so far i must say. Been steady. He's lost loads of players, brought lots in. McBurnie will need watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just shows how big the crowds down here could be if they get it right. Some existing football and a successful team would still generate some massive crowds at Villa Park. I know we didn't regularly sell out under MON but the football was not exactly breathtaking and it never felt quite right. Every time we sold out we seemed to lose! I certainly never felt we would sustain it. Hopefully this time the 42,000 like what they see and come back again and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think Hutton will be a starter under Smith. Smith likes his l&r backs to get up and down. Hutton isnt able to get back down the pitch now when he attacks.

Sadly not, we face a fixture rash after the international break with three games in 6 days. I guess it would be too late to dick around with the timings for Saturday now. Going to be an amazing afternoon, win, lose or draw. A farewell to Doug, and a welcome for Dean. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Another 1k tickets on sale in the trinity upper. They obviously didn’t release all the tickets in one go. Think it will still sell out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah got released online at 17.00pm, Apparently they still give Ex-ST holders that re-located first refusal on there old seats (when it opens) before general sale, so all these new releases are Ex-ST seats. just over 700 left now.

Popular Post WakefieldVillan Posted October 17, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2018 Just ordered 2 tickets in the upper trinity for me and my dad, been contemplating it all week (he's 76 & it will be a long day for him so wasn't sure) but I'm totally buzzing for it now, he used to take me when I was younger and I thought I may regret one day not returning the offer and spending the time with him!

He was OK (no more) till he broke poor Osman's leg so badly, playing for Wales against Scotland. Been bobbins ever since. On 11/10/2018 at 23:32, robby b said: That's exactly what I was thinking, he's probably scared to go into tackles now since that awful tackle on Osman, that broke his leg. I watched that game, what a nightmare moment. : ( Maybe occasionally a leg break tackle can turn out to be more or less career-ending for both players in the tackle. I thought it was Coleman against Ireland? Or has he actually done it twice then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
