Just got out of Luton.
To the early posts....No it didn't rain, yes it has already been nuked as far as I could see.
The only difference I could see in the ground from the 1970s was that they have bolted some seats to the terraces and the paint has had 40 years to peel off some more.
I had forgot what a strange ground it was, entering the away stand almost through the back yard of somebodys house. A real throw back to the good old days of having to dodge your head about to follow the game with so many roof supports blocking your view.
Also nice to see a good visible police presence to add to the feelings of nostalgia.
I would say there were about 1,000-1,200 Villa there (including Sid Cowans and Nigel Spink) and the fans remained in good voice despite the game being the pre season friendly equivalent of Doncaster in the League Cup.
