We can finally arrange games like this now as I was dreading this being a league game next season !

[Bad English]

Looking forward to the team selection not being a 6-4-0 formation.

Swallow and gulp emoticon.

You really think you'll need a ticket?

[cdbearsfan]

For Burton I was thinking I might, can't imagine it holds too many.

[Lambert and Payne]

Can get about 1800 tickets at Burton CD, 1400 terrace and 400 seats if required according to football ground guide

Ahhhhh! This is why we've contacted Mick McCarthy ie Do you think Wolves would be offended if we asked for a pre season friendly?

From the OS

Villa will play a friendly against neighbours Wolves as preparations for the 2012-13 campaign continue.

Fresh from announcing a clash with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, Villa have added a trip to Molineux to the calendar.

The match will be played on Saturday August 11, with a 3pm kick-off.

It will represent one of the first games in charge for Ståle Solbakken, who took over in the Wolves managerial hotseat this week.

The last game played against the old gold and black saw a 3-2 victory for Villa, on-loan Robbie Keane bagging the crucial goals against his former club.

As well as the match with Nottingham Forest on Saturday August 4 [3pm], Villa also play Burton Albion on Saturday July 14 [3pm].

There's also a tour of the USA for the claret and blue troops.

Villa take on Philadelphia Union on Wednesday July 18, Chicago Fire on Saturday July 21 and Portland Timbers on Thursday July 24.
