That really is quite a lineup if you like that sort of thing.

Sounds a great gig if that's your thing, also the profits going to charity is fantastic

On the negative side though, I might give the 1st home game next season a miss as it will probably be a sh*tshow(or p*ss) as they probably won't get any summer works finished by that time!!!

Ozzy and Sabbath playing VP on 5th July...last ever gig.
I was at their last last ever gig a few years back!

Pah, my first Quo gig was on their Farewell Tour in 1984. I saw them 15 times after that.

I quite fancy this. With that many bands, the chances of me still being conscious when Sabbath arrive are slim, though...
The chances of Sabbath being conscious when you arrive are even slimmer.

Probably safe to assume we'll be away first game for the seventieth successive season.

Heck did similar at the 76ers.  Some of the things he talked about was making their brand cooler with gigs, celebrity endorsements and limited edition apparel.  Most are happening at Villa.

Almost everything Heck has done since his arrival has boiled my piss. This I like though so credit where it's due.

I see in an article by the BBC that the intention is to redevelop Villa Park for any potential World Cup 2030 bid. I would be surprised if we did not demolish the  oeth Stand before then.

Could we be the Witton going as Phase II?

Aston Villa is one club who will offer full support for any bid and plan to upgrade Villa Park to ensure it meets Fifa guidelines for the tournament.

Villa Park has a rich tradition of hosting major occasions, including three games at the 1966 World Cup, four Euro 96 games and a total of 16 internationals. It was the first English stadium to host internationals across three different centuries and has also staged a record 55 FA Cup semi-finals as well as the 1999 European Cup Winners' Cup Final between Mallorca and Lazio.

3 March 2021 Ads started this thread after a two phase redevelopment was first mentioned by the club. Since then we've had renders, planning permission, a timeline and a cancellation. Almost four years later we are no closer to genuine expansion and modernisation of Villa Park. In that time Everton have built an entire new stadium and several other clubs have advanced redevelopment plans.

We started the decade with big plans and will likely finish the decade still with the structures we had in 2000. For me, that's what I will remember the post Purslow era for.

Are there any actual plans on long term growth of revenue that don't rely on Unai working miracles or limited edition Black Sabbath Villa t-shirts. We are being left behind off the pitch and Emery will be gone one day leaving us with an old, mid sized stadium and no backroom staff.

In 2040 the Sabbath gig will be Virtual Only

£400 for a ticket in the upper Holte and a couple of beers.

I admire your persistence.

You remind me of the single issue parties in elections, passionate and determined.

And, unlikely to get your way.
