I’m meeting my mate in The Manor Tavern. Looks like Shameless 😂😂

We went in there before the England game at Villa Park in August. One of the bars was non-smoking, the other had ashtrays on every table and just about everyone in there was smoking. You had to walk through the smokey bar to get to the toilets. The place was like going back in time about fifty years.

Anyone going down today or tomorrow there’s Jewellery Quarter beer weekend. Do 6 pubs and get a t shirt. Some good pubs around there and sometimes people don’t bother/realise it’s there.

6 pubs in the jewellery quarter = a free T shirt and a Prince Albert 😀

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.

Was wondering the same thing. Google maps shows a pub called the Villa Tavern about 5 min walk from there but no idea if it allows away fans 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'm also wondering about parking.

I'm looking at parking somewhere North and getting the train in to either Witton (chase line) or Aston (cross city line). I don't know if this is a good idea or not mind.
 
Is there any way to upgrade an u16 to an adult for this?
Both tickets goin to waste if not. I tried the ticket office number earlier but believe it’s closed

* I also know this kind of fluid action would be beyond them so I’ve no idea why I ask really. 🤦‍♂️

unless you want to pass them on to people happy to take them off your hands, and take the risk I suppose, all you can do is do nowt with them. The club offer no other alternative currently.

Even with the demand.

Edited - the other bit as don’t wanna be deleted and warned!

If I can upgrade the youths to an adult id give both the loyalty points up, wont really affect me
For next season. At least I could go! I either need to go with an adult for travel purposes or the boy needs to go with another adult which although I trust some people I’d find a bit noncy!😂 And then the risk of ID check. What a fuck on

I don’t think that’s allowed anyway to upgrade mate. I dunno if the ticket office is even open for you to hand them back.

So I reckon it’s going to waste unless you transfer to someone (which is obviously highly illegal and you shouldn’t do etc. etc. etc.)

Aye they are going to waste likely.

Have spoke to Villa ticket office and it could only be done at our end- which means it would quite frankly be impossible.

Hello mate we got our tickets but still undecided about parking. Will check star city out now. It doesn't look too far.

Last time we played there we parked at Star City, it was a long walk to the ground but handy on to the motorway after the game. Was plenty of space but it was a night match.
