Title: Villa Park floodlight refurbishment
Post by: OasisVillain on June 20, 2014, 02:10:41 PM: http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~3914694,00.html

I was reading this report yesterday and it makes mention of them putting lights on the roofs of the North Stand and Holte End, apparently it will be the 1st time there's ever been lights mounted in this fashion at the ends of the ground.

Am I just imagining it but didn't we have lights on the North Stand roof and the old Holte End roof back in the 90's? I'm sure we did because the gantries on the roof of the old Trinity were really poor
