Glad to see the club have announced details of the Villa beamback with big screens on the pitch. However, does anyone know if it'll be allocated seating for it in WSL? Or will they just let anyone sit where they want in the stand? Know there was a similar beamback last season (I think for Boro).
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

If I wasn't headed to Villa Park I'd make a bee line for those comfy looking Porsche seats at the front.

The article on the club site refers to "allocated seating" so interpret that as you see fit.

I wouldn't like to have the best seat, go off to refill the Harveys and find someone else in my seat.

Sit where you like for the boro game last season.
Friend said they allowed drinking...and having to continuously get out your seat to let people go to and from bar/loo became tedious.

they massively underestimated the amount people would drink - they ran out of beer and only had one bar open from memory so queues were horrendous. so just like a usual match day!

It definitely ran out at half time. Had to settle for a bottle of water which was frozen solid

Exactly how it was/is for rugby. At the World Cup game it was a pain the ass.

Massive queue to get in and the queues for catering were the worse I've ever seen at the Amex hopefully things will improve this time, surely they must know how many tickets will have been sold.

Just printed my ticket and it doesn't have the seat I selected - just the block. I am interpreting that as sit where I want.
Maybe they are only showing seat numbers online for capacity reasons.
Anyway good news that about sitting anywhere as i got two and i know a friend who is buying 3

It was horrific getting in. And that was arriving with plenty time. The club needs to be WAY better organised this time and if they can't be bothered to staff the bars properly then they ought to make it bring your own. By allowing the queue from hell to develop before opening the single turnstile (!!!!) the same queue for the bar arrived at the same time basically once through the gate. Total amateur set up last year. People then 'panic' buy multiple beers when hitting front of queue making it even longer to serve. Was a disaster last war and I would strongly recommend watching in a pub because let's face it, the Albion and Sodexo never learn...
doubt it will be on in any pubs - sky tend to show play off games or relegation games - rather than title deciders
