Got a couple of tickets for this. What's the parking like? Visited Filbert Street a dog's age ago but never been to The King Power. Will be the fourth time I've visited both of a club's old and new grounds, after Southampton, Reading and West Ham

Park in the city centre or by the cricket ground. It's only up the road from Filbert Street.

I parked at the rugby ground the last couple of times I went

We're parking at The Homebase. 15 min walk along the flat, what I usually have at VP...

There was definiely trouble there inj the 2-0 Lillis game . Pitch invasion (mini one) when we scored too .

Likewise April 87 before the game in the city centre. We drew 1 1.
Yeah was there , Villa Youth v Babysquad . Crazy days

Just win Villa, the moaning about the "disastrous" transfer window will be unbearable for the next 2 weeks if we don't.

Just park anywhere in the city centre. Have a bit of lunch then walk down the river to the ground. It's actually quite pleasant, or as pleasant as Leicester gets.

Yeah, I'm really not ready for that.

That's what I've been doing. I actually think it's alright as a city.

I can't stand Leicester but I suspect a big part of it is rugby related. That the fans of their football team very quickly (after a bit of success) proved themselves to be as big a bunch of twats as the rugby fans was nice though because I feel a bit better about judging the entire city based on them now.

Getting across the road into town from the station always puts me off the place.

Tends to happen with East Midlands women. Hopefully the Dr soon sorted it for you.

A clean sheet is long overdue and could be the difference between points dropped or a win .

Scoring more goals than the opposition could be the key to a win.
