Thoughtful Aston Villa posting

The home of the House of V newsletter - AVFC long reads and (hopefully) quality writing.

[House of V @HouseOfAVFC]

A rational look at Aston Villa's new £40m partnership with the club.

What does it mean for Villa? And how does it change things moving forward?

Telling you now of my state

New #AVFC newsletter: Aston Villa vs Young Boys was a return to the big time, and at the centre you'd find the devout - ready to travel far and wide for this love.

What a trip - and I hope this does it justice.

Opening day matches are usually devoid of meaning. Jhon Duran changed that with one strike for #AVFC

Hello world

[James Rushton @Jamorushton]

🚨 New #AVFC newsletter:

First one of the season and what else did you expect from Jhon Duran?

[House of V @HouseOfAVFC]

Worst seats in the ground at a premium and you get a red brick concourse.

You're buying the drinks as well.

[Dan Bardell @danbardell]

Wow.

No wonder it’s called “The Cells”, absolutely criminal.

Most clubs are happy with PSR rules then.

[John Townley @johntownley11]

Snippets from today's Premier League AGM which concern Aston Villa…

- Villa's move to increase PSR loss limit pushed back.
- Crystal Palace's proposal to allow clubs in Europe more flexibility around spending and losses pushed back.
- New financial system.
- VAR stays.

Wolves changed tact on ST issues based on backlash. Things can change based on the noise we make.

[Dan Bardell @danbardell]

To the minority that have said I am making a noise about nothing, read the replies.

Season ticket rollout has been a disaster.

Club will do what they think they have to, but no excuse for ticketing department’s lack of communication to people the decisions have impacted.

I am one of lucky ones that isn’t impacted, but I’ve no problem raising awareness for those that have been. I’d be fuming if it had happened to me.

This simply isn’t good enough.

It isn't treated like a normal season ticket in a lot of ticketing criteria. It was a savvy/cynical play at making people jump the waiting list. Fair play if you've got the money, but the benefits are few for the cost.

[House of V @HouseOfAVFC]

Terrace View tickets are expensive, and what do you really get with it? It's the same match view, and a slightly fancier bar?

[Aston Villa @AVFCOfficial]

GA Plus Season Tickets in The Terrace View for the 2024/25 season are now open for renewal. 🟣

Offensive set piece plan v Liverpool

[John Townley @johntownley11]

The glaring issue which #AVFC must remedy is defending set-pieces after conceding 16 goals from them last season.

Villa had the second-worst aerial duel success rate with Diego Carlos as low as 44.7%. Tyrone Mings' return will help, but Unai Emery needs more than one solution.

[House of V @HouseOfAVFC]

@j_macgeever also squad seems quite small height wise

[House of V @HouseOfAVFC]

This isn't McPhee. Defensive set-pieces are reactions, offensive are plans. It's on-field organisation breaking down the second the ball is played.
