Apparently Talksport are teaming up with Aston Villa to sell tickets for the fanzone in the WC at the warehouse.  £20 a pop.

£20 to go to the toilet at the warehouse?

I suppose even spending a penny has to succumbe to inflation 😉

Until my last job, I had no idea there was such a thing as someone who doesn't follow domestic football but supports the England national team - and will pay to get into one of those communal fan zone things.

How fucking weird can you get?

Villa 'Legend' Gabby will be in the Warehouse during World Cup as Villa have teamed up with Talksport during World Cup.

I must admit this doesn't make it a more attractive proposition.

Let me get this straight, you pay to attend and not the other way around?

A few Spanish clubs used to have the zero version of familiar beer brands to get around the no alcohol rules. Smart move as it’s tiny alterations to very recognisable logos.

Wow, North Stand to be closed for all of next season to speed up its completion.
I guess they can take the hit on lost revenue as CL is looking likely next season.

Does this mean we're going for the original (Purslow) option?

Sounds pretty positive.

For the development that is, not for the people who will lose their seats for a year.

If they're going down that route, they should go for a larger capacity
