Driving down mate and parking in the Gee Business Centre - do you know if any pubs in walking distance from there or is there somewhere outside we could stop at on the way in and have a few then drive in and park up for the match? Crap that there's no beer in top concourse unfortunately.

It's a shite away day. One of the worst in the league.

Lad I know had 25 years following Spurs all over whilst never missing a game, friendlies abroad, every away game in Europe, cups etc.

Run ended circa 2018 at Villa Park where he was arrested for being drunk and disorderly. He had 3 pints.

Yeah it's a joke. Wonder how many get turned away on Sunday for same reasons!

Trains to Witton/Aston are very frequent, even on Sundays. You might like to note that the upper tier concourse is no alcohol, if you're up there.

We are in the lower tier

The Shakespeare is literally 50 yards from the back exit of New St station. Spit and sawdust type place but serves it's purpose on a match day given it's proximity to the train station. The Briar Rose is a Wetherspoons just a few yards further up and there is actually a Wetherspoons in the station now too.

I’m meeting my mate in The Manor Tavern. Looks like Shameless 😂😂
 
I’ve done every away jaunt this season, and for the first time, it’s not recognising the link when copied.

What have folk done in the past if this happens?
 
We had tickets for row v in the lower end. Ticket office rang earlier to say villa have informed them that the row isn’t available on Sunday so have moved us to row c. Just logged on to see if the link was there and it doesn’t work 🤷‍♂️

Edit. It’s worked now

agreed.
villa was my first away game. i remember the police were deliberately pushing folk forward down the terrace to get a reaction and when they did they got locked up.
my brother in law was arrested donkeys years ago down there, can't remember why, it was something innocuous but he was wearing a spiderman mask for whatever reason at the time and when it got took to court the judge asked the copper how he could identify him if he was wearing a mask. he got off and the copper got a bit of a telling off for wasting time.
