Finally - someone said it out loud. And in a national newspaper.

Completely unserious, hypocritical and transparent comment from the Labour group leader.
You can’t refuse to join a stable coalition and then whinge from the sidelines when the resulting coalition might not be stable.
@lewis_goodall They'll be delighted with that, gold-dust for the prospective leadership election when he'll be trying to demonstrate enough distance from Mandelson and opposition to the actions of the Israeli government.
@PHolmes89@goatly267167@simonlines Sounds like you'll still have a chance! Can't be many who have made as many games as that, you've beaten me by 2 PL games.
Another year when the clubs commercial team absolutely luck out cos of Unai and his staff/players
We aren’t dealing with clued up savvy commercial operators, we’ve got opportunists who know when to cash in on success….
@marshallavfc@DanReynolds7 You are deluding yourself, they've already announced a freeze for the following season. There's no chance prices will drop again without serious fan action... (So they won't drop again)
You can’t just put your prices up every year by 5% minimum and expect to keep selling out. There were warning signs in the European games for the last two seasons that they got the pricing wrong.
#AVFC announce yet more ticket price hikes at Villa Park, including astonishing match-day prices for their Champions League games which the club say will be reviewed (presumably upwards) if they proceed to the knock-out stages. #StopExploitingLoyalty
@johntownley11@AVFC_News Plus they've retained their points-based STH queue. If members don't just swallow these prices then it screws your chances of getting a ST.
Many will have paid more than they'd have liked this year in pursuit of a ST for 26/27, only for the NS rebuild change to crush that hope.
Villans, with another exciting campaign on the horizon at Villa Park, we'd like to update you on several key changes to our ticketing approach for the 2026/27 season.
The clear message to voters - Unless they are guaranteed to be the biggest party a vote for a Labour councillor is a protest vote that makes it less likely you'll get a functioning council.
