It’s a fantastic ground from the outside and inside especially the Holte and Trinity Road stands. It was a traditional 3pm Saturday kickoff.
We drove. It was good until we got onto the Birmingham motorways M6 and M42 where we had 45 minutes of slow movement which got us at the car park 45 minutes later than we wanted. If you can, avoid these motorways when going to the ground.
There’s a lot of car parking around, some free and closer places cost money. We parked at Star City where there is a load of food facilities and is around 30 minutes walk away from the ground.
We had McDonald’s before the game and we stopped for KFC after the game. £15 for the 2 of us, not bad.
It’s not bad actually, you get both tiers of the north side of the Doug Ellis stand. I was in the upper tier right in the middle and it’s a very good view compared to other away games. Concourse is a bit small but apart from that not too bad.
Good, everyone standing in the away end, both sets of fans making some noise in this eventful game. Limbs every time there was a goal.
7/10. Outside of the ground there was no trouble but there was chants against us when the game was going on.
Traffic in the city was awful but once you were on the motorways it was all fine.
Just under £90. £30 in fuel which surprisingly only used half a tank, £40 for me and my dad’s ticket combined (£30 adult, £10 Under 18), £15 for food and £3.50 for the match programme. Definitely value for money. It was cheaper than going to the Olympic stadium which is way closer and was a class game.
Yes, definitely!
Villa is easily the second best away trip in English football!
We travelled by train and it was very easy!
The Witton Arms. Superb stuff, the away fans section is a great novelty and it makes Villa a standout trip.
Not the best, not the worst. Any trip where you’re on the side of the pitch isn’t ideal, but it’s not like I missed any away goals as we got beat 1-0.
Top notch in the away end!
7/10
Apart from an understandable queue, pretty easy.
Spent around £70 and yeah it was good value.
Absolutely!
