lp_villa830 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Really tempted by the Walsall game this year. Anyone fancy a meet up? We could do a VT meet up thing. I'm sure the interest would be there and as it's a nothing game it would be pressure free. Exactly what i was thinking. Find a neutral pub nearby should be a good crack.

KjParton Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Walsall sounds good, probably Crewe as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lp_villa830 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Good crack? Where? I don't know, obviously something we would have to liaise with somebody who knows the Walsall area better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Walsall sounds good, probably Crewe as well! I see Crewe every time I go to uni so it'll be nice to actually see a game there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khizzy Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Wonder if PL can pull a few strings and get us to play Borussia Dortmund at VP. That would be one to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theunderstudy Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I must be the only person that thinks PSFs should be used to give us a game against smaller opposition to help them financially then rather than big "phwoar!!" friendly clashes. I really want to go to all of them.... may not go to the Germans as would need 3 days of holiday and of course staying there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to go to all of them.... may not go to the Germans as would need 3 days of holiday and of course staying there I think you need to strike a balance. PS is all about getting fit but you need to play against some quality opposition too because you need to be fully prepared & match fit when the season ultimately kicks off. You don't just want to be playing poor opposition because ultimately you can end up losing to them too & that can damage confidence especially amongst the fans. The 3-1 reverse at Notts Forest last season being a case in kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Thought maybe they would have a villa-celtic game this summer to raise money for Stan's charity? Perhaps they have decided to wait for another year to get the ball rolling first. I am sure it would get 2 sell outs. i read somewhere a few weeks ago we might be playing a Bulgarian XI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
