Villa Park Redevelopment

[eamonn]

I wonder whether in hindsight they'd have submitted plans to demolished the stand and expand from scratch if they were at peace with the idea of it being out of bounds for 12 months.

Are we on version 3 or 4 now for the rebuild? Thank goodness we got those stadium experts on board to save time and money on chopping and changing !!

I'm not an expert, but I design the odd stadium as a hobby. My deeply-held view is that they've under-ordered on flange crockets so they're having to pull the whole project through a tungsten ennui filter. I said this would happen.

I assume that they will use a prority system. Member with x games this season, with the number dropping like it does for aways and Europe.

I reckon it will be nigh on impossible to get a ticket without a membership.

Assuming the North holds 7k, 27k ST holders, 3k away, plus all the various hospitality, probably around 4k to members for league games.

Will we still be required to give massive allocations to visiting teams in domestic cup matches or can we just give them what we do in the league?

Three CEO’s/Commercial heads in 4 years has clearly had an impact on strategy. Purslow’s plan would have been finished now.

It will still be 15% of capacity.

This.

We did a wild 360 degree turn after Purslow left and it seems now they have realised they can't do it and keep the stand open.

 I once helped my brother in law put a wall up inside a school so I am an expert, and sadly I agree

Makes sense to get it done before all the contractors are engaged on the dildodome :-)

[PeterWithesShin]

Or they decided that getting in as many extra seats as possible before starting work was a good idea.

lm not an expert, but my mate reckoned there was plenty of flange in Brum ?

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.

I know I am going to be a refugee next season but it is the right thing to do and we should have implemented the Purslow plan two seasons ago.

The stadium would have been a building site last season and we wouldn't have got to the final 8 of Big Cup.

[Drummond]

Oh FFS. this season has been tricky with Sunday games. Next we're likely back to Saturday and there won't be any tickets available.
