TheSufferingVilla Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 That makes my trip over from New York for the united game that bit more special. I can't wait it is going to be a fantastic day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_W Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 General/All, What about the idea of having a proper "Villa Museum" at Villa Park. It would encourage fans to Villa Park outside of a match day, and would be a great way for the younger generation and us to remember the older players who brought glory to the club etc. Maybe it could house some of the trophys and old shirts and medals. I'm sure there would be many fans who would contribute old murchandise to the cause. What do people think ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salsa Party Animal Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I am impressed with the invitation of Ron Saunders and Randy's low profile/no boast behaviour. I mean look at new owner of West Ham as he talk to the media more in a week than Randy in last 5 months or whatever (Smell troublemaker). Keep up the good work, please sign some exciting and brillant players to make us even more excited with Aston Villa. Our players are not exciting enough for me.

Gizmo Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Tell you the truth I wish we did hear a few words from Randy. Nothing spectacular... just a 'hello'. But there you go. I guess we'll save that for when we win the European cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nialler Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Hi General, Not sure if this idea has already been suggested to you, but as an Irish Villan, I come over to Birmingham about 3 times a season. Each time I bring a couple of friends. For flights, accomodation and match tickets we spend about 200euro each. For my next trip in Jan I am bringing 4 friends. I would much prefer to see this 1000Euro or a portion of it going to Villa rather than to other companies. Maybe there could be the possibility of setting up a partnership with one of the hotels in the City center. I dont think that accomadation would be as sucessfull in Aston because of its location. It would not be too difficult to set up a facility on the official site that would allow the user to purchase a package consisting of flights, tickets and accomodation. I think that this service would prove popular because it would provide an easy way to arrange a trip. It could also make some decent money for the club. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salsa Party Animal Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 All you need to team up with a local budget airline and accomodation and match day ticket and perhaps a night out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 From Law 7:[*:b6400aeee3] Players are entitled to an interval at half-time. [*:b6400aeee3] The half-time interval must not exceed 15 minutes. [*:b6400aeee3] Competition rules must state the duration of the half-time interval. [*:b6400aeee3] The duration of the half-time interval may be altered only with the consent of the referee. Knew i must have been right! refereeing brings great knowledge! :oops: Oh well - it was a nice idea. I hope everyone stays to give him the reception he deserves then. Now that I've quit my job I might see if I can get up to that one. Whats meant by 'previous booking record'? How many games does it have to be? Depends on the competition, I believe that the premierhship carries through the whole competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the competition, I believe that the premierhship carries through the whole competition What I mean is - for me, being in full time education, having a part-time job and living 100 miles away from VP - obviously my trips up to see the boys are a little more sporadic than I'd like them to be. I managed to get up to the Spurs match last season, will that entitle me to get a ticket for the United match on the 23rd for which a 'previous booking history' is required?

trigger Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I had a call today from the club, asking if i was a villa fan, i gave her games i'd been too but they were unsure as i'd only purchased for Reading so far this season (other people had booked for Charlton and Middlesboro) however they were able to track my booking back to 1998 so as long as you've been times before and can prove your a villan you should be fine, oh my other problem was i have a manchester postcode, obviously a bit sus.....
