Sadly decided not to go to this, despite having a ticket.

I don't normally mind going solo to Villa games but not with the potential for trouble that this one has thrown up, a lot of it stirred by the PM, the opposition and numerous knobheads on social media.

If you're watching on the telly, I'll be the bloke sitting all on his own in the North Stand Upper, surrounded by empty seats.   Feel free to give me a wave.
Me and my lad will keep you company in the North Stand, planning on getting in early if I can to try and avoid any nonsense outside

Yet more BBC bias?

What bias do you think there is?
I was wondering that, doesn’t seem to be reporting anything more than the facts.

Think the primary school closing early says it all.  Can’t get this game out of the way quickly enough.

Happy to walk with you if that would help?

It’s not just that school.
My other half’s 17 yr old is at a city centre college. They had a letter Monday to say they were open as usual on Thursday, but had advice about going home straight away at 4pm.

Today they’ve had one saying they’re closing at 1pm “ after further advice “

Thank you, but my mind is made up now.

For those that are going, I'll keep everything crossed nothing happens.

That BBC article above, it mentions a no-fly zone. Like, WTF?

I wonder if the left-wing "we're on the same side, bro" gimp with the megaphone will be there, as he was in Whitechapel.

If he was the idiot from Oxford with the song, he can stay there.

I think he was German, and was subsequently kicked out of the university.

They can all stay away, whatever side they're on.

I mentioned the no-fly zone in another post.

It is for drones and covers a one mile radius.

I'd have expected a no-fly zone for drones at all games, to be fair.

Thanks for clarifying.
