Exactly right Pat, this is a good, if long overdue, development of the ground.

That's great Andy, seeing how lovely the surrounding area is, especially Aston Hall. Cant wait to see the finished building work.

Will this mean altering the roof on either the Doug or Trinity Road stands?  The video alludes to how the North Stand can be widened to accommodate more seats, but I can see a "hangover" issue from the roofs of the two stands down the side.

It's an easier hangover to remedy than the one we had after losing to Chelsea, Wigan, Spurs, Millwall and Bradford that one awful month when the only source of optimism was the arrival of the car reverser from Malawi.

The worst month of my Villa supporting life. Worse than relegation in 2016.

Remember thinking that at least we had a chance at home to lowly Wigan. Think we lost 3-1.

If the NS roof is being removed this summer, do we think they will have time to install a temporary replacement or is everyone up there getting wet???

Free Villa umbrellas for all NS season ticket holders would be the most cost-effective solution.

Didn't Man Citeh do free cagoules when they were updating Maine Road in the 90s/00s and weren't as objectionable.
