Did you know? ⚽
Overnight, Blues’ Paik Seung-ho became the first Birmingham-based player to take to the field at this year’s @FIFAWorldCup, playing 84 minutes of Korea Republic’s win over Czechia.
A total of 11 Aston Villa and Birmingham City players are representing their countries on football’s biggest stage this summer.
Good luck to all our players! We’re right behind you. 👏

@goatly267167@Ed_Lawrence96@simonlines Same boat as many. I was 1800 on list last June and Villa said they gave out 1000 new tickets. Went to all euro games, 13 pl and the one fa cup this season…but reckon a lot did more because of points system.
@simonlines@TheVillaHome Member here…my biggest annoyance is that the points system for the waitlist is on a two year rolling period and it feels like 24-25 is written off now with little chance of many STs coming available. With pricing and less seats can’t see me going as much on a game by game basis
@natsiobhan_ With the rumours I’m going to wait….feel that it looks more of a novelty shirt without a sponsor. I’m lucky to have the original muller shirt without the muller.
Sharing this experience with my lad has meant everything to me. It was a crazy couple of days and I’m sure he will be asleep well into afternoon today. What a team, what a fan base! #avfc
@B6Nigel Agreed, it was a great site, but if they scored, I bet they wouldn’t have moved an inch from their seats. Fans I met after match were lovely though…fancy a visit to Freiburg now.
