Villa Park Achieves Carbon Neutral Status
« on: February 06, 2013, 01:50:56 PM »
As a Greenie I consider this good news:

I think it also shows a positive aspect of the job that everyone's favourite punch bag Paul Faulkner is doing as far as off field matters go.

Lets wave our flags with pride to celebrate such an achievement.

When we look back on 2013, this is what I'll remember.

No but im sure randy will get a gleaming certificate to hang on the walls of lerner towers - a wonderful moment in his reign.
Wouldnt surprise me if it was added to our honours list.

I see they are pleased that they have reduced the amount of traffic around Villa Park on matchdays. I guess they will be over the moon at next seasons attendances when we drop into the championship. A cunning plan, well done all.......

If we were doing well, this would be applauded, let's give them the benefit of the doubt, it's good news. Anyway, if we get rid of some more rubbish it will surely be better!! ;-)

It would have been progress if Villa Park had been goal neutral this season.

As far as I'm concerned they could have chimneys pumping out CO2 all around the ground if it meant the team did better.

They'll be making more away trips next season though, hope they factored that in.

I don't think we'll be qualifying for the Europa Risso. I applaud your optimism though.
