Not heard of Pink? I'm not great on modern music but she's pretty famous. You're making me seem in touch! 😄

Just received email from Villa about Pink concert - i have not heard of her or any of her songs? but she must be popular to fill Villa Park.

Good news about the concert and a good money earner for the Villa.

You lucky, lucky man.

She was big in the early noughties. Just Like A Pill is a bop, and Family Portrait is a decent, brooding one.

The blocks around the dug outs at Wembley are corporate and look terrible after HT and at the start of the match due to latecomers taking their seats, I wager you will see the same in this case.


That is exactly what I was thinking - it needs to be full every week or it's going to look very embarassing.



Didn't we already have this issue after the Trinity was redeveloped? Switched the TV gantry back to the Doug Ellis stand but the gaping gaps in the middle of the Trinity where corporates were slow to take-up their seats made the stadium look half-empty?  Maybe I imagined that as I can't find footage with the camera pointing from the Trinity.
I'm sure most big clubs have this issue and you'll see it at every international game too.  It comes with the territory and the need to pay huge wages to compete.

I've only ever notice it sticking out at Villa Park and Wembley. Oh and behind one of the goals at Old Trafford - where they have that weird section of banked/spacious seating that looks half-empty underneath the away supporters.
That big section of empty corporate seats at Wembley looks terrible. The ones at Old Trafford you mention are for wheelchair users. Hopefully they're strict with stopping service on time in the new Trinity corporate seats to get them back in them asap after halftime

I don't mind pink, it's mostly poprock but that's ok, she's certainly never done anything to deserve being disliked, even if you don't like the music.

You can't force anybody to go and take their seat if they really don't want to.

Ha! Bloody hell, Heart FM takes me back to working nights at the Tesco distribution centre in Hinckley as a student during summer holidays.

I had it in the 90's at the Lloyds Bank clearing house in town where I was one of only 3 blokes out of about 40 staff. Toni Braxton's Unchain My Heart brings me out in a rash as a result.
