One of my favourite stadiums along with Anfield. Has alot of character unlike some of the soulless bowl shaped modern ones of today.

Similar to Anfield, I think redevelopment of the stadiums, modernising them means keeping its history and soul .. modern stadiums look great but modernising existing stadiums is something special in my opinion

I attended 5 matches at Villa Park between July of 1966 and May of 1967 Including both the FA Cup semi final (Chelsea v Leeds) and World Cup group stage (Germany v Argentina). My family emigrated to California subsequently. Great memories.

I've been going to my beloved Villa Park since about 1970 aged 7, I love this ground and still get a buzz when I get Inside. One of the best grounds in the World by far ❤

Just an amazing place to watch a game of football. The class oozes from this place with the red brick and the stained glass windows. Ask me where VP stands in the best grounds I’ve visited and it’s right up there ! Fan or not there’s not many grounds out there quite like villa park

Villa Park is a beautiful old stadium anyway. I went to a wedding there, it blew me away how grand and beautiful it is

Very very good. Doesn’t spoil the aesthetic and spirit of a very old ground. Looks like a good match to the planned development

As a Man Utd fan I have always enjoyed going to villa park since the 80s. Some great memories there especially in semi finals. It’s a great ground.

One of football's oldest clubs, Villa celebrate 150 years next season, although Villa Park wasn't built till 1897.

I am red fan and Aston Villa is one of my favorite clubs, i love the history of the club, i love the unique, beautiful, historical, traditional authentic English style stadium, I love the club colors and kit style, I am amazed how a club like Aston Villa is not in top tier of English football club at least, I don't know why there are no investors in this club so far, this club has lot of potential, great and ambitious project, it's a must to expand and develop Villa park, I wish if they would have copied the main stand for the new proposal one, but this one looks like holds more fans, but looking forward to see Aston Villa back to where they belong. Aston Villa must deserve a at least 50k stadium.

First went to st Andrews blues ground around 67 , but used to watch villa following week , when they played at villa park , always preferred going to villa park , last there in this 80s

*|| ASTON VILLA || THE BIRTHPLACE OF THE WORLD'S FIRST FOOTBALL LEAGUE ||*

I'm glad they are keeping the heritage and character of the stadium and not going down the soulless bowl shaped stadium route.

My favourite away ground , great atmosphere.

Great to see Villa going the same route as LFC upgrading Villa Park like Anfield. Coolio. YNWA

Love it when clubs stay true to their roots and retain and improve what they have got. New stadia are lovely but nothing beats a traditional old stadium in my opinion

Brand new stadiums such as Tottenham are really impressive but they lose the soul of the ground whereas grounds like Villa Park and Anfield in remaining with the heritage and history of the clubs. I can't wait to see the finished article.

We should bring back proper terracing and r store the Holte to it's former glory. I first went to VP as a little kid in late 60's (season we got relegated to D3 actually). It was incredible. The Witton End (when did it become the North End?) was a huge bank of open terracing. The floodlights spelt AV and the Holte was so big you couldn't see the back of it. I stood on the Holte from mid 70s through to its demise. Football grounds are just not the same without terracing. Shame. That said VP is still one of the best, most atmospheric grounds in the country. Long may it continue.

Watching this masterpiece at 3am

Guys , this is a beautiful project…Villa fans deserve it….

現在のパークもシンプルで美しい。そして見事な改修計画ですね。

I remember when the existing North Stand was built in the late 1970's, it replaced an open terrace accessed from steps behind - that was in itself an exciting development - this is of a different order. Like many who have commented the the new North Stand will enhance the stadium whilst maintaining the authentic feel of a traditional football ground, Rather like the current development at Anfield. Well done "the Villa". The video by the way is fantastic, really brings the whole thing to life. Thanks

I worked at this ground putting the cables in for Sky in 2003 and we used to dig at the Aston hotel what was run by a lovely Irish lady..One morning we couldn’t leave the hotel for work because someone had been shot and killed in the car park 😮...It’s a crackin stadium is villa

Villa Park is by far my favourite ground

Great video. I always appreciate your efforts at showcasing stadium expansions. Well done!

Great video, you're extremely talented and skilled, there's something really therapeutic and soothing about your videos. Love Villa Park, my favourite away ground. I wish the FA Cup Semi Finals were still held here.

Me my family been going most weekends to watch my beloved villa my brother pass away today he so proud now to his villa team on up this gonna be amazing stadium when finished because got plan's to extend dog Ellis stand and Holt end in future 65000 fans hopefully by 2030 love my villa

Awesome video 👍👍 so proud and excited to be an Aston Villa fan ❤

That’s just phase 1 of the redevelopment ❤

It would be fantastic if Villa can do this. Not too many old school grounds left these days with most having been replaced with soulless bowls with no character or stand out features. Villa Park has four individual stands that fit nicely together to make up a proper old school English stadium. Always loved going there as an away fan and saw one of the best games ever there when Charlton beat Villa 4-3 in the last minute (sorry Villa fans) and best of all it was the first ground where I got to eat a chicken balti pie at halftime!

Wow… much needed for Villa and so well presented.

Villa fan here I’m very excited for the expansion it has needed to be redone for ages great video keep it up

Aston Villa's Villa park stadium should be at least a 60K capacity. All the stadium needs is 4 quadrants to link all the stands together to justify the capacity cos since Ron Saunders days they've underperformed as a Club that effected the City!

Love your videos, amazing detail. Appreciate the time and effort you put into it 👏

been following your channel for a while and think this is up there with your best work, surely somebody should be paying you to do this stuff

It’s going to be even better when the Doug Ellis stand gets the upgrade in the 2nd phase of the villa park rebuild..for me it’ll be the best ground in the uk when it’s all been completed

Appreciate the skill and effort that went into this, thank you.

I can't wait until we get a new north stand it looks amazing. UTV

Your videos keep getting better and better... Incredible skill!!!

Brilliant video. Can't help but be excited for the future. #utv #avfc

Just a few points. The roof will not be a cantilever design as represented in this computer mock up. It will not have all that steelwork on the outside. It will be 2 tier, with the upper tier tapering around into the corners. The final design will look nicer than this I think. And of course it will be branded with the new round badge.

The main issue is Witton Station, it needs expansion and better access and egress. Also the academy is under construction already and looking good! I wonder if in the future we'll buy up some of the industrial land next to it and build a whole new training campus, would be awesome imo.

Been coming here since the age of 8,, I'm now 40. the memories I've got here are unreal, the best ground in the world. UTFV

Superb, my club

Great job. Cant wait for it😊

Amazing work. Subscribed

If I were asked to rename the redeveloped North Stand, I would suggest George Ramsay Stand. He was not only the man who established Villa, but the Football League as well. It'll be a fitting belated honour for him.

The Witton end has changed quite a bit since my day.

Yes Villa park NOT a stadium HAS an aura about it I recall a mid seventies league cup tie against man Utd semi final we won 2-1 that night unforgettable night one of many great nights and about time this fine organization is heading in the right direction that's Mr Emery

They also gonna make extra stand at the back of Doug Ellis stand and curve it around to North stand and Holte End

You have missed out the new witton train station and the walk way from the station to villa park Great video

Top work! Awesome

Amazing 👏

Your videos are a work of art

Brilliant video

when do they start redevelopment, hope some catches this on KZfaq like Liverpool & Everton's going on at the moment

Great video UTV

Bondibot has upped their game. Standards were already high to begin with.

incredible video!!!

Been to Aston Villa does deserve to be 60000+ one of the ends can be done like Man City so less impact on fans.

Great video

Love it

will be superb once its done 😮

Amazing

Very nice 👍

love it

‘“Spirit of 82 Stand” affectionately known as the 82 stand. My humble suggestion.

As a man utd fan I think villa park is one of the coolest stadiums in the prem bar non

I prefer the former club crest which has Aston Villa on it rather than AVFC.

Looks alright

Need to close those corners in at the Holte End, the wind howls through and it's sodding freezing.

very nice.. and the paying fans deserve better facilities..

Great video, but the music was scary

the only thing i can think is missing is the planned metro along the canal to accomadate the extra flow of people

Wow, best version so far, when does it start and isn't another tier going on the Witton lane stand? 👍UTV

Need to do the Holte End too,fill the coners in for anothet 10000 seats. Makes The Stoy look a bit sick though ay ?🤣

is the north stand fully being knocked down or

What's interesting is our great new owners have put it to the council to sort out Witton Station 1st before this all starts! We could be waiting a while 😂😢😮

Shame this has been cancelled. Having all that land behind the north stand which is 50 years old is an absolute waste. Could build a second holte end and offer a huge amount of corperate space delivering revenue and meet the need of thousands of fans wanting season ticket

bondi....puedes hacer el nuevo estadio de la universidad catolica de chile??? plissss"!

@bondibot try making a video of Stamford bridge Chelsea?

Estádios brasileiros por favor, Santos FC, São Paulo FC, Vasco da Gama, Flamengo, Sport Recife, etc...

Seems like the lower tier of North Stand is going to be retained while the rest is built and completed. Should mean capacity may be temporarily reduced to 40000 or minimum 39000.

50,000 capacity won't be big enough, especially with 35,000 on the season ticket waiting list and we have just qualified for Europe.

Please colombia future stadiums

Looks epic can’t wait to see it finished 👌🏻 could of picked some better music with abit of our fans chants 🤔

Aston Villa is bigger football club than Arsenal,Totenham,Manchester City because Aston Villa have one UCL thropy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Faz um de Anfield part 3 e 4

Amazing video we need one on Chelsea and there new plans with there 3 options Man City and Newcastle

They ruined Villa park when they demolished the old main stand.

The sleeping giants are back! Villa park is the Buckingham palace of football stadiums. The future king is a villa fan say no more 😂❤

Che, ahi va jugar El Dibu?

Looks like they’ve knocked down half of Witton. I’m guessing the person who has rendered this hasn’t been to Witton.

Please next time two stadium's - Hrazdan stadium and Vazgen Sargsyan Republican stadium - Yerevan, Armenia 🥺👍✌🏟

Wembley should of been a example to all the old Wembley should of been re vamped and the twin towers kept

Stadium architects are terrible these days. Archibald Leitch would be so disappointed. As usual, the new stand is a copy of the older new stand beside it. Liverpool are the same. Every stand should be different. Everton leaving Goodison Park is a travesty. A soulless bowl identical to Espanyol’s stadium.

Do Man City next
