3.  Transport to ground - build it and will happen.  Old Trafford is an example from when they expanded. 
I suppose the local council in Manchester had a club that was very successful, had put the city on the map, etc, and so they were willing to be accomodating.

Not wishing to run Villa down, but our last major trophy was a quarter of a century ago. Sadly.

Eerrr……you forgetting the playoff trophy mate And under 23 FA Cup
Annnnnyway, Like I said......

(Sorry guys, I really hate the fact we ain't won a trophy since 1996)
Dont worry - its our year for the FA cup

Large areas of seats together still for both fixtures. 
Totally agree with the pricing £55 with no concessions is an absolute disgrace. Come on Villa do the right thing and add concessions or put an offer on to pack the stadium out.

The losses to SHA and Bradford are the ones that irk me most. I'd love to win the FA Cup, but the League Cup is ours, and we should've won it in 2010, 2011 & 2013.

That Bradford match. Jesus Christ, that was there on a plate for us, but Lambert clearly had some sort of breakdown at half time and went bat shit for the second half playing 1-0-9

How he survived the sack after that and also after the previous month's triple Xmas whammy of 0-8/0-4/0-3 against Chelsea/Spurs and Wigan (!), I'll never know.

Straight after the Bradford debacle we were dumped out of the cup at Millwall on a really miserable Friday night. Some real anti-Lambert outpouring in the Villa end after that shit show

Really one of those visionary managers Lambert. Brought Klopp's Gengenpressing ideas over to the UK before they became fashionable, but we just didn't understand them at the time and just thought he hadn't a clue.  :(

He was miles ahead of the game when it came to fucking about in your own box from a goal kick as well.
