Villa Park Redevelopment

[algy]

Has anyone got a good picture of what is there at the moment?  Honestly, I don't think it will be that noticeable compared to what is already there once complete.

But yeah, we aint fillng in that corner any time soon.

I'm not sure about that, it looks like the sort of work that'll pay for itself in a year or 2 so I doubt it's an indication of much beyond us wanting to push the capacity as high as we can in the short-term ahead of the euros and then see where things are after that.

Yeah, agree there. None of the stuff we’re doing is *so* expensive that it won’t pay for itself pretty quickly. And as has been said before, part of the character of Villa Park is that it’s a bit make-do-and-mend, each of the stands has a distinct character - not some homogenous bowl.

The capacity should be about 45,000 with this and the Trinity re-profiling.

It's a shame we'll be losing most of the view of the trees between the Holte and Trinity.

Which is why it was odd we didn't go with a bigger North Stand of 13000 so that we could avoid having to do lose that unique view for the sake of a few hundred seats.

I’m not deliberately being a dick but why are we protecting a view of trees when there’s a football match to watch.

They need to close up that gap, it’s dangerous IMO. You could be hit by Mayo, Muatard or Ketchup

Was well known back in the day as the gap for those watching from Aston Hall when the ground was sold out!

Maybe we could call the new bit Condiment Corner.
