Of all the reasons people will give not to renew over the coming weeks and months I don't think interference in a salsa-dancing lifestyle will be topped.
A late entry for post of the season.

Yes :) as you spend 5 minutes with lot of ladies on dance floor and some night you can dance with 20 ladies :) Made lot friends that way as well.

Sounds just like Peppermint Rhino, but cheaper I would imagine.

I am not renewing my season ticket for next season due to three reasons.

1. My very strong passion for Salsa dancing which mean I love to do Friday and Saturday night out and plus very late night out and early getting up for work (ie 3.5 hours sleep on Friday night (Saturday morning) ) Make it very difficult for me to cope as I was struggling to stay awake yesterday afternoon. I could have sleep in Villa Park, I was that tired. Some Saturdays I have no energy for Saturday night out after football. 

I too struggled to stay awake at Villa Park yesterday. And during the Stoke game. And during the Newcastle game. And, come to think of it, during almost every game this season. I can't dance for shit, though.

After 90 minutes at Villa Park, i have no energy for life, let alone dancing.

Salsa Dancing?... maybe our friend Monsieur Houllier should have cut down on the Break Dancing.

Perhaps we could organize a mass protest 'I'm Not Renewing' Salsa Dance on the steps behind the Holte.

Salsa Dancing is indeed a big pull which many may find difficult toresist when it comes to ST renewals.

Never had a season ticket at Villa although there have been a couple of season where in retrospect it would've been cheaper for me to buy one...I agree about falling asleep during the Stoke game, it was one of the most coma-inducing games I've ever been to, in equal part owing to Stoke's anti-football and Villa's inability to find a way out of it.

Does Nicola Keye et al know about this Salsa dancing issue?  I really, honestly think I've heard it all now.

Maybe there's a new commercial opportunity here:

'Salsa at Villa Park!'

The club could hold dance lessons, create a salsa-dancing team to enter competitions under the great Aston Villa name, open a Mexican restaurant serving salsa-based dishes (expanding the brand a little!)...

Maybe it's time to chop H&V in for a salsa dancing fan site
Instead. Sounds amazing but I think I'll stick with the villa. For better or worse...

On Wednesdays it's at Solihull Ice Rink - now I don't know much about salsa dancing but that's got to make it harder!!

It is a good place to start :) We are dancing in a suite next to the ice rink. So we can see the ice hockey training next to the room :)

How is your back anyway? Was it you looking to use Bodymoor's jacuzzis or summat?
