Villa Park Redevelopment

A tantalising glimpse into what should have been the demolition!

Are they putting rail seating in up there?

[Percy McCarthy]

We could really do with the legislation on rail seating changing. Purslow used to talk about it increasing capacity at a ratio of 1 to 1.8. That could put a nice dent in the waiting list.

No, that’s the Holte.

But nobody actually knows what they are doing with the North Stand do they?

Guesswork about boxes but that hasn’t been confirmed by the Club.

The new seating in the NS upper tier is having the Adidas logo in place of the AV design. I think I read that on here.

Yep Adidas signage and some work on the boxes

I’ve seen that speculated on here not seen any formal announcements.

Work being carried out to add sponsors logo to a part of the ground does not need to be formally announced. They will socialise it once it's compete, I guess.

I’m sure that true but how do you know they are adding a logo and removing boxes without a formal announcement?

Incorrect, it was in the Announcements section of The Times last month.

So basically someone on here knew someone’s dog who spoke to a builder who told them this is honestly what’s happening?

No, I said that they were putting the Adidas logo in place of the AV because someone at the club told me. He also told me about the alterations to the corporate boxes.

After seeing this image and seeing things mentioned about the boxes being taken out, I wonder if they are carrying on the the same profile as the lower WL to the Lower North to fill in the corner and have steeper seating which will give a better view and maybe add a few more seats, maybe it then can be carried on around the lower north next summer

I have no actual knowledge of what is happening, just throwing a thought out there

The bottom terrace is pretty shallow from when it was standing.  Imagine it could be rejig to put more on.
