I like to think the Golden Fortune pigeons would be like 'Jon Pigeon' on Twitter.
He spends most of his time being, 'frankly, livid' about stuff, rather like the owner of the seat.

The shot of his 'band' was genius.

10K more? At this stage? April Fool's Day was Sat.

A year ago we were certs for relegation, had lost 7 in a row scoring 2 and conceding 23, we had no manager and Lerner was still owner. I doubt there was a mad rush to renew in early April last year.

Just imagine what a successful Villa could be like Dr Tony. 32k for a mid table Championship side?

Does that mean we've sold 10,000 ST's? Doubt anyone would have been keen to renew this time last year.

I know but still it seems eyebrow-raising. I'd understand it a bit more if we were on the cusp of promotion.

We'd probably only sold about 5k this time last year due to our tragic demise and Lerner still being the owner. Judging from our crowds I'd guess at us selling 15k season tickets for this season which picked up when the takeover happen and we start splashing the cash.

I think The Doc is simply salivating at the potential of our club. He's barely scratched its surface.

Get shat on by a golden pigeon and the ref will always be a homer.
