Should be aiming for nothing less than this:

Given the set up at the Villa, can you imagine trying to get a beer at half-time, you would be gone for weeks! ;)

the blind and sight challenged will be delighted to know they will miss all of the very late goals we concede throwing away our 1-0 lead and losing 3-1

I’m leaving before they start building it, to beat the traffic.

You'd still be back sooner than a trip to the Founders bar in the Witton Upper.

I’d hand my ST back in. My bladder couldn’t deal with a crowd like that.

Can we have a Monorail from City Centre to the stadium? Probably not practical, but it would be cool.

That’s second picture. Is that a Boxpark style venue? That would be ace but they’d need to market it well on non matchdays.

This is a very exciting update.

Interesting that in the artists impressions there doesnt appear to be a Witton Lane anymore.

Would there be demand for a gig venue in that area of town?  A few have popped up in London (Lafayette/Omera?truman Brewery) where there’s decent street food and a small gig venue bolted on.

And the new crest is on the walls 😂

And it seems they've sensibly drafted Risso in to design it!

Looks a very common-sense approach. I know Box Park were looking at venues in Birmingham.
