Welcome to GUESS THE CROWD Round 7; ASTON VILLA v AFC Bournemouth at 3 pm on Saturday, 26th October!! 🥧
Fourth plays eleventh in this PL match, which should reflect Unai’s canny use of his squad, following the CL win v Bologna with an eye to the Carabao Cup match midway through the following week, then the next weekend’s PL clash…. It’s all go at this rarefied level of European football!
It’s time for Unai’s vision, expertise and legendary preparation to inspire our lads to see off this lot.. COYVB!!
Once again, we look forward to the Bonus known as...Emery’s Extras!... so let’s hope all our chaps have their scoring boots 🥾 on.
The Brucie Bonus is wild until KO on Saturday!
Remember,
Only your first guess counts, and
Please don’t edit your post. Thanks.
Anybody can join Guess The Crowd 🥧 by guessing the crowd at VILLA PARK this Saturday afternoon for the match v the Cherries and posting your Guess in here, before KO!!!👍😃
UTV!

The Divisions are posted in GTC Divisions (https://www.heroesandvillains.info/forumv3/index.php?topic=65129.msg4664464#msg4664464)
There’s a new figure for the capacity of VP since last summer; the current FA Handbook for 2024/25 has it as 42,918 which is up by about 270 odd from last year. The link to this is in the OP of the Divisions thread.

Edgy and Telford; you have to guess before KO, sorry!
It’s in the rules at GTC Divisions, rules etc (https://www.heroesandvillains.info/forumv3/index.php?topic=65129.msg4664464#msg4664464) like this:
The Usual Rules apply in all Rounds. These are:
1. You may post One guess only in a Round.
Accidentally posting a second guess will not get you more points as only your first guess is counted.
2. No editing of your post, please.
Editing means you get only 1 point that round.
3. You must post your guess before Kick Off.
No final figure for attendance out yet, for this one.

Thanks Neil,
I’ll be looking for a secondary source, but will probably go with this figure anyway!
Edited:
It’s on the Attendance site as well, so, that’s it, sorted! Thanks to the Villa Attendance and ticketing team! 👍
I’m away from my ledgers for a couple of days, so hopefully, I should be able to update all our points for this round by Wednesday evening, before the next match!
