This is the stuff I love. I know I`m a big softie really. But players getting involved with the Villa Foundation, ‘we support our own` and getting out into the community. Especially good to see Andre, a young player and one who has just been dealt a blow with a hamstring injury.
Love what the Foundation are doing anyway, as many of you know, but this sort of thing to me, for a football club with class, is absolutely essential.

The normal pitch life for these new, modern woven pitches is apparently around 10 years. Ours is 12 years old. Last year they were set to re-lay the pitch but after the club won pitch of the year, Tony Xia wasn`t convinced it would therefore need re-laying and would be good for one more season.
Turns out it did need doing.

Interesting forum thread on Scott Hogan: Click Here
A Vital Villan fed up with fans scapegoating Hogan. Agree or disagree? I agree btw, he has to have supply, then he bangs them in. Up front on his own with no service/no one to play off does not work #AVFC #UTV https://t.co/y0bl9YHwJj

The suggestion is that the window will close at 5pm on Thursday August 9th with the loan window remaining open until August 31st. The vote itself will be decided based on a majority of Championship clubs voting for the change..
