Villa away

[LongsightM13]

Been doing this trip for 20-plus years. Train to New Street, train to Witton, turn left out of station, one minute to the Cap and Gown boozer (away pub). Curried goat, rice and peas from the Jamaican jerk shack directly opposite, two minutes walk to away turnstiles. Job done.

Just fire a load of Shrapnel into the bucket, they don't give a frig. Last year they got a handful of pre-Euro Irish coins I found in a drawer. They even thanked me.
The Parkside near Maine Road also had a 'children's charity' collection on the door...

Fucking miles away and complicated. Easy to get lost in home fan territory. Avoid

Was gonna attempt this at Arsenal this year but the police wouldnt even let anyone in the offy as they knew our trick ;) Hopefully they wont be as wise at Villa!

We always park on Aston Lane just as you turn onto it from the A34, it's a decent walk (20 mins) to ground but an absolute doddle for getting away after game.

Block Q2 for me, row B, seat 9. A bit close to the front but nearer the half way line so not too bad.

Capacity 51,393? That's not right is it?

42000 approx isn't it?

Villa are planning on rebuilding the north stand end..I think this is what the capacity will be once the works been done..will be a decent looking stadium
