Anyone know how long it takes to get back to New St Station after the game?
Last train back to Glasgow is 18.20

10-15mins, usually a few trains 'queued' up at Witton, however with 6000~ of us, could need a sharp exit! Although for 18.20 I'd imagine you will be fine

Hi guys, hope you enjoy your day at VP on Saturday. Heard you have sold 6,500? That's brilliant, can't really think of any links between our 2 clubs apart from Gareth Barry. Anyway, if you have never visited B6 before and want any help or advice on pubs, things to do before/after the game or hotels then I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Hope you have a fantastic day apart from the result!

Luke

No real links? Are you joking? We were great rivals in D3 in the early 70's and in 71-2 you were Champions and we were runners up! :ohmy:

Ruskin hall is your best car park, less than 2 minutes back onto the aston expressway for a quick exit, and a warm welcome and a good pint before the game, secure parking during the game, spread the word

Hi matey, how close to the ground is that and have you got postcode please

King Edward VII pub on Lichfield Road is the best pub by far around Villa Park. About 10 minutes walk from Villa Park... just been fully refurbished and has decent beers on tap too.

Been there loads of times and is away fan tolerant... Has decent Villa fans in there too...

Parking - there are loads of nearby businesses which are closed at weekends and you can park in their car parks for about £4 - all have security guards until match finishes. Don't park on the street - Villa park is in a poor area of Birmingham and it's probably not worth risking your car for a few quid...

I'm not joking mate, avoid the Aston hotel at all costs, same goes for the Adventures.

Aston is a very working-class area with high crime rates, avoid street parking especially on the surrounding estates where your cars well being cannot be guaranteed...

Hello Mr.AVC.

Would you recommend driving to and parking in Birm centre as quicker/ cheaper/ safer than going straight to ground?

Go and win the League Cup and leave the FA Cup for us.
