  • Aston Villa Football Club is proud to announce plans for a bold regeneration project at Villa Park 🟣
    Expected to go live Christmas 2025, this includes the launch of The Warehouse, which will be free to ticketed supporters on matchdays and will serve as a multi-use venue set to become a premier destination for world-class performances, as well as the largest beer hall in the Premier League.
    Completing the vision is an expanded plaza in the North Grounds, designed to amplify the matchday atmosphere.

    I remember listening to Doug Ellis over 20 years ago saying he has the plans for the north stand on his desk ready to go. Only recently I’ve heard a similar thing and got everyone hyped only to be told the plans have been shelved.

  • @EErail26

    Please crack on with increasing capacity within the ground, too, prioritising much needed extra seating for ordinary fans on limited budgets, not just affluent ones and corporate hospitality. What’s happening with replacing the North Stand itself? UTV

      I remember loads of things Villa said they'd do and didn't - some times they just can't get permission.
      The hotel that was going to be in the corner between the Trinity and North Stand was one.
      I remember thinking Neale Cooper was going to be the best central midfielder EVER yet he got injured and barely played. No one's fault.
      Luc Nilis was gonna be a top striker - he got a terrible injury too.

    This has put the nail in the coffin of any stadium expansion plans. Won't have time to get it done by Euro 28, which means no added capacity for genuine fans until 2030 at very earliest. But not to worry, Heck will have made the stadium 100% corporate by then so no need for real fans.
    Truly devastating plans.

    So basically the shop is done, the warehouse is staying just with a refit. The only actual development I can see here is turning the car park into block paving and adding a few trees?

    What a downgrade on what was originally planned. And no new North Stand! With the Euro 28 tournament coming to Villa Park it means that no meaningful work can progress until that's done. Chris Heck is actively driving away the real fans in favour of corporate tourists; if I was to truly express how I felt about him and what he's doing to our club then this comment would be removed.
    Other clubs have such ambitious stadium expansion plans in fruition, not only are we being left behind by our competition, we'll soon be overtaken by those behind. Truly devastated with these cheap plans and ideas.

    • @SuperCrispyPancake
      @SuperCrispyPancake 6 днів тому

      It's not cheap plans. Our owners aren't poor. They'd build more to ensure more revenue but they can't. You need planning permission. You cannot compare other sites and expect the same. If we fully relocated and bought a massive brownfield site like the blues, we'd have an insane amount of fliexibility.
      When the station is sorted, we'll see the big changes. Until then I'm happy with this upgrade.
