£77 for a ticket in the Holte End for a premier league game.
They do not want supporters going regularly. They want as many different people through the gate as possible.
Atmosphere getting nuked in the process.
All in the name of greed and PSR. Footballs on its knees.
Aston Villa can confirm the club has written to the PGMOL to raise concerns over the selection process of match officials following today’s game with Manchester United at Old Trafford.
With such high stakes surrounding today’s fixture, the club believe a more experienced referee should have been appointed. Of the 10 referees to officiate across the Premier League today, Mr. Bramall was the 2nd least experienced.
The decision to disallow Morgan Rogers' goal, which would have given the club a 1-0 lead with 17 minutes remaining in the match, was a major contributing factor to the club not qualifying for the Champions League.
As per the standards that have been established over the course of the season, a decision to whistle early is clearly inconsistent with current refereeing guidelines. VAR exists to ensure that these types of situations receive the scrutiny they deserve. Unfortunately, the technology was not allowed to serve its purpose.
Ultimately, we acknowledge that the outcome for us will not change, but we believe that it is important to address the selection methodology to ensure that high stakes matches are treated as such with regards to officiating and to ensure that the implemented VAR technology is allowed to be effective.
#MUNAVL – 72’
The referee’s call was a free kick to Manchester United with Bayindir deemed to be in control of the ball before Rogers gained possession. The whistle was blown by the referee before the ball entered the goal, therefore the incident was not reviewable by the VAR.
If Spurs were 7th, in the hunt for Europe, and #AVFC were 16th (sixteenth) - away from home, but in a Europa League Final (not even there yet)… there is absolutely no way that this game would get moved.
Zero.
we played 5 games in 2 weeks.
“sky 6” bias is a joke
- spurs are 16th
- we are constantly having to sell
- united and spurs can spend another 300m cos they were shit this season and finished in the bottom 15
- we get top 6 and are still in debt
CORRUPTION.
Sometimes you simply have to say you've been beaten by a better team. The difference in 2025 is that the 'better team' are one of the best in the world. No need for recriminations, no need for anger or hyperbole. And with a game at Villa Park to come, you just never know.
Richard Parker has been at various train stations this week promising changes and upgrades..
He does seem to have forgotten about Witton Station.

#AVFC
"Spurs have got injuries".
No Watkins, Onana, Pau, Mings, Barkley, Cash. Konsa went off. Played most of the game with Bogarde and Kamara at centre half. Fuck off
