This part of the announcement sounds ominous/costly:

“The lounge at Villa Park is undertaking renovations and upgrades, with further information to be confirmed shortly around the availability of the suite.”

The writing is the entrance fee to the "Holte Suite View" - Ł500 per season.....

There is a lot of things at Villa that we have got right I think

Owners, manager, a lot of the players we can be proud of rather than embarrassed, backroom staff also look pretty professional, ground improvement plans look good, and generally the vision going forward is positive

But there is also stuff that is still shite

Dealing with the ticket office on the website is just torturous, and the Villa app is rubbish and I’m not user friendly I’d sack anyone who had anything to do with that

The music played at matches at 100 million dB and is turned on as soon as the final whistle blows with shit songs is just bloody annoying and sucks the atmosphere straight out of the ground he/she that does that needs sacking asap

The Wi-Fi in the ground is shockingly bad well it’s non-existent. This might not be anything to do with Villa but I’m gonna moan about it anyway and all the Wi-Fi people need sacking

Anyone who had anything to do with that Terrace been built in the middle of the middle of the Holte needs sacking

Whoever decided we aren’t grown up enough to watch the sky build up or any of the matches including the actual Villa game on the concourse When you’re waiting before the match starts or popping off to the toilet, they all need sacking

whoever organises the trains leaving Aston or Witton half full after games,
They all need sacking

That’s it for now, but I can probably think of more

Weirdly, I actually like that
I think only Birmingham bands music should be played before games or maybe a little wider out if they have a connection to the Villa

You’ve nailed it there John E, especially with the music after the game. Boils my piss that.

I’m not user friendly

This is true, but if you put the effort in with him he can be very rewarding.
