I’m from that generation of football fans that used to argue with absolute retards who said Messi needed Xavi and Iniesta to perform at the highest level.
Those were the days. Those were the days. 😂
Increasing 30,000 season tickets by ~£50 nets the club an additional £1.5m
The excuse used is to “support ongoing investment in the playing squad”
Achieving UCL and winning Europa will earn villa ~£85m
Harvey Elliott’s wages for the duration of his loan cost ~£3.4m
Jadon Sancho’s wages for the duration of his loan cost ~£7.2m
Abraham and Alysson signings cost £30m+ in fees alone only to barely play
Aston Villa spent £38.4m on agent fees between Feb 2025 and Feb 2026
Price hikes exist to help the commercial teams achieve arbitrary year-on-year internal target increases rather than having any material impact on “supporting ongoing investment in the playing squad”.
If it had a meaningful impact - why is our manager dealing with the same core of a squad he took over 4 years ago despite hikes every year?
You don’t NEED to increase ticket prices. You WANT to.
Stop meaninglessly punishing match-going fans and get your act together commercially. And stop lying to us about why.
Pocket pinching loyal fans WILL NOT help Aston Villa compete.

Mark Bosnich’s reaction was probably every Aston Villa fan’s reaction watching those goals hit the back of the net 🤣🙌
Two stunners had the Villa legend jumping out of his seat.

I’m not even joking when I say that Alexis MacAllister deserves a red card for this.
He’s lying and trying to get someone else sent off. Not to mention how embarrassing it is, but it’s a trend that needs to stop.
Make an example and it will. https://t.co/uNCUCTC2vs
Manager of the Season.
Manage 15 games at a Manchester United that's spent another trillion ,come on in, your name's on the list.
Manage 3 seasons at Villa, 3 semi finals, 1 final, 2 Champions League qualifications using half a dozen players who played in the Championship, you can't come in.
A decision so laughable that when someday Unai is nominated, I hope he tells them to fuck off.
A mockery of what achievement versus caretaking is.
This is how much #AVFC miss Bouba Kamara:
Win rate in 2025-26:
✅With 72.2%
❌Without: 22.2%
Win rate in 2023-24:
✅With: 65%
❌Without: 38.9%
Villa were in the title race before Kamara's injuries in both seasons.
Villans
Only one Villa team have broken the glass ceiling in our European history, we know their names, immortal in the history of our great club.
Many of us have tried and failed to to bring a magical European trophy back to Villa Park.
I remember that night against Atletico Madrid, glorious failure on the night. I've never heard Villa Park so loud. The Holte lead the way, and young Villans in K3, K4, K5, you have the chance to do something special and louder. You can and you must.
Make this grand old stadium stand for 90 minutes and never relent for one damn second.
But the Holte End is one fourth of the jigsaw.
Trinity. We need you.
North. We need you.
Witton (sorry Doug). We need you.
Bayern Munich. Beaten.
PSG. Beaten.
Atletico Madrid. Beaten.
Anderlecht. Beaten.
Athletic Bilbao. Beaten.
Barcelona. Beaten.
Inter Milan. Beaten.
Ajax. Beaten.
Celtic. Beaten.
A handful of clubs have those scalps.
The special sauce in every win? You, Villans. YOU.
Every one of those wins, the noise rivaled anywhere at any time.
We face admirable foe and a special football club that I know very well. A club who believed in miracles and miracles came true for them.
Our players need our voices, our songs, our heart and soul on Thursday. Every stand. Every Villan, old or young.
Remember when you walked into Villa Park for the first time? The joy, the tears, the pride, holding the hand of your Mom or Dad or excitedly shephereded in by your big brother or sister or best mate?
Let the memory of them be your guide tomorrow night.
Sing for Spinksy, Birchy, Alan McInally, for Gary Shaw, for Brian Little, for Paul McGrath and for John McGinn.
To the players and staff, we know how good you are, and we ALL want you to walk into the pantheon of greats that adorn our halls.
As someone once said..
"The lows just make the highs higher. We are at the heart of English football, we have a majestic name, a decorated past, we serve as a shining light among our peers, we are Aston Villa ".
I believe.
We believe.
Villa believes.
UP THE FUCKING EUROPEAN VILLA!!!!
