Aston Villa - EASILY The Loudest Fans In The Premier League
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 06. 2024
- We have travelled to every away game this season, analysing the away experience, and by far the loudest supporters of the season have been Aston Villa. Of course, the noise a crowd makes depends on a lot of in-game factors, but before the game, after it, when celebrating a goal -Villa were so so clear!
How else did it rate though? In this honest assessment, we review the experience and compare it to the rest of the Premier League - entering on to our league table, but where will it rank? To help us calculate this, we rate:
▪️ Car Parking
▪️ Pre-Match Away Pub
▪️ Walk to the Ground
▪️ The Wow Factor
▪️ View from your Seat
▪️ Pie and a Pint
▪️ The Noise
▪️ Value for Money
We'll do this for every other #PremierLeague club, so subscribe to see where the Villa chart come the end of the season!

Of course, the noise a crowd makes depends on a lot of in-game factors, but... 1) before the game 2) after the game 3) when celebrating a goal - Villa are SO clear! It's also worth noticing that the importance of a game will also be a significant factor. Would have we experienced such a noise at the start of the campaign when Champions League possibly wasn't in many Villa fans' minds? Possibly not. But we can only rate what has been in front of us this season.
😂😂😂😂GREAT SHOW as per lads, top score for the most important section so CAN'T complain about that, SNAP for the pub score!!👍
The diggers pup on Moor lane a Short walk,
I agree context is key which does impact the away day table
As an Everton fan, Villa have always been class fans when they come to Goodison. Great support, and never any tragedy or poverty chanting unlike some. Id never have a second club, but if i had to choose one with a gun to my head, itd be Villa
34 years a villa fan and never once would i have thought i'd be subscribed to an AFC Bournemouth CZcams channel for the last few years.
Absolutely the same here :-)
30 years ago you could take your pick of pubs near the ground, unfortunately the new residents of Aston aren't really into alcohol so nearly all of the pubs have shut.
I know exactly what you mean mate only negative of being a villa supporter 😂
Thanks for that review boys and I think it's pretty fair of you to be honest. For the record, it's not just Villa and away fans who are annoyed at the Barton's Arms closing, it's the entire city. To think that Laurel and Hardy stayed there whilst on their UK tour in 1954, and given the Victorian building is still resplendent in many of its original fixtures and fittings, it's a sad loss for the city. Let's hope it reopens in another guise to provide all supporters with a base from which to start their match day journey.
All the best. #UTV
I'm really hoping The Bartons Arms reopens.
Best pub in Birmingham and a real tragedy.
My favourite pub as well its such an iconic piece of Birmingham history.
As a Wolves fan, must admit Villa fans are loud. Always liked Villa Park, a beautiful ground. Just a bloody nightmare to get to.
Park under the M6 on Moor Lane. 15 mins walk tops, lots of space if you’re early 👍
Hopefully we'll get a pub for you next season. UTV!
im nearly a pensioner we used to sing it (hi ho aston villa ) at the villa when i was 16 ..
fiest time ive been here ,good show nicely presented
Glad you enjoyed your trip to Villa Park. Next time you go please approach the ground from Aston Park walk past Aston Hall. The wow factor is a ten.
As a Villa fan I'm really hoping that The Bartons Arms is open again by next season.
Not only the best pub around Villa Park but I'd argue the best pub in Birmingham.
There are very few pubs left around Aston now unfortunately.
There a very few pubs left in Aston & Witton area and why there is only now home pubs. Especially as home fans lost the Holte Suite to corporate tickets this season. Thanks for visiting my local, The Yenton 🍻
Villa fan here - genuinely you guys do a really interesting vlog for genuine footy fans. Great stuff lads and thank you for the compliments. All the best for the Cherries and yes, it's not right that we don't have an away pub!!! We need to sort that out
UTV
Seems like a very fair assessment. 👍
The away pub situation for those who drive and park is extremely poor since the Barton Arm’s closed. I’d not be happy either. Needs fixing before next season.
This season, away fans who travel by train have been spending pre match in Birmingham City Center, before getting the train to Witton Station, (6 min), and walking to VP, (10 min), in time for kick off.
Great fan channel lads, (one of the best for any club actually). Keep up the good work! 👏
Enjoy your stuff as a Villan living in the SW, glad you enjoy VP. It is breathtaking on a sunny afternoon. We need to sort an away fan zone, it would generate much needed revenue! Fingers crossed Wes, Nassef and Chris Heck are reading the comments!🙏🏾😂 🤞🏾
That’s absolutely dreadful we didn’t give you a pub. Great video though lads UTV
Hi Guys really enjoy your videos, very impressed with the scoring you gave to us Villa fans, sorry about the lack of away pubs, might be something Villa can look into you could have a pub with a big car park and you could even call it "The Away End" again thanks for what you said about the fans singing to be pure perfection....this means alot, we are very proud of our Team, club and Stadium.... basically all things Villa, many thanks Dean
It doesn’t solve everyone’s problem but for years I have arrived early (11am for 3pm kick-off), parked and then jumped on the bus to the City Centre where I’d meet my mates in one of many excellent pubs (Wellington Arms is outstanding). Book a 6 seat taxi for 2.15 (couple of quid each) and be in our seats for kick-off. After the game 5 minute walk back to my (free) parking spot and on the M6 in 5-10 minutes.
4th in all things. Absolutely here for it lads. Like @mudder5 I wouldn’t have imagined I’d enjoy subscribing to another teams podcast but you guys have something really special here. Good analysis, good banter, great production. Non judgemental atmosphere about all the different teams. Fantastic work. And you know what, I’ve been to Villa park a lot. I think your review is bang on. Chris heck knows there’s tonnes to do on infrastructure. We have plans to do a box park style walk up from a new and improved witton station in future, which will include a massive multimedia drinks and food hub for home and away fans. We will get it done. It’s just one step at a time. And yeh, you can’t beat us for noise. We are massive for atmosphere. The passion is real! Xx utv
Villa have had Jeff Becks Hi-Ho Silver Lining since the late 70’s,
The *Dog Heads* (wolves) have only started playing it over the last ten years as West Brom use The liquidator the same as wolves used to use it.
I'm 68 and we used to sing Hi Ho Aston Villa at family parties in the late 1960''s and Holte Enders in the Sky. We also used to sing the "Glory Glory Aston Villa" song in the 60's and 70's before it was nicked first by Tottenham, then eventually by Man Utd.
You got Villa Park on a good day, right after getting to the semi of the conference so it was always gonna be a great atmosphere. If you didnt give us 10 for noise i would have been fuming.
Seeing as i didnt stop hearing about how there was no away pubs for the week before, ill take 50 points and 4th.
See you next season, hopefully with a bloody away pub!
Amazing you went to my local pub, you really had to go far and wide to search for one 😅 I think travelling by train would give you a better experience than arriving by car with more pubs in town and the local train gets you to the ground. Great video from villa fan 👍🏻
Villa fan here. Great show and more than fair comments. You caught our fan base on a good day. Volume has been hit and miss this season. I thought your manager was extremely gracious after the game. Keep up the good work and see you next season.
Villa fan here, really enjoyed you're pre match preview of our game and the vlog. Thanks for the high rating we do pride ourselves on being loud!
Bless ya Cherries. UTV
Young josh has definitely got a future in sports journalism😊
Glad you enjoyed your away day at The Villa.. I’m glad that you stayed up and I believe that drinking for away fans will improve next season. Look forward to meeting you next season!
Not just because we won! Your channel was very well balanced and fair! Also great presentation!
Seriously, you guys do the best podcast. Im a villa fan from Sydney who now tunes in all the time. I think its the balance. I l9ved your post match after Wolves. Good luck next season.
Thanks for the fair review lads, see you at Villa park next season 😊
Another villa fan here just signing in to the Villa/Bournemouth love-in!. Great comments guys, I’m 58 and my first Villa game was the infamous’Ted McDougall’ game old 3rd division 1972, 48,000. I’ve always felt the Bournemouth connection!. All the best for a pub next year, UTV!
VILLA FAN: Me and my nephew did the same thing a few seasons ago with Northampton and think your assessments are fair and a good indicator for going away to top grounds…great watch and enjoyed it 👏👏👏👍well done chaps
Brilliant video chaps,you're both naturals for this sort of stuff !!
Meet me in The Wellington,on Bennets Hill City centre next season. Good crowd brilliant real ales and ciders,( no Amstell,it's catpiss) and then get a no.7 bus to beautiful Villa Park. Sorted !
Now that’s a proper match day routine!! Few points in the Wellie then off to VP! UTV
The Wellie is my favourite pub in Brum.
Villa fan for 52 years here, great channel and much appreciate your words
Very disappointed with the lack of pubs, hopefully we sort it out. Subscribed
Honestly such a great fan channel proper in-depth and sensible analysis. Probably the best fan channel I’ve come across and that’s me saying that as a Villa fan. Keep up the great work and the entertaining vlogs!
You got a sun tan? I was sat opposite you and I was bloody freezing! LOL
Fair enough scoring on the various categories. The pub you visited is where then local Villa Supporters club have their End of Season party , great night UTV.
Villa fan, you're just a good channel.
Loads of love all the best for next Season UTV
villa fan hear, love listening to you guys very honest with your views and happy to be a subscriber
Another Villa fan sharing the love for your channel. Best of luck for the new season.
very fair review, we do love 4th aha, look forward to having you back again
Thanks lads very fair assessment great blog UTV.
Love your vids boys. Keep up the good work 💜💙
What great content. Just watched through a couple other videos of yours and the quality and editing is top tier. As a villa fan, subscribed.
Villa fan visiting. Top content. ❤
Im villa but have subscribed find you guys really informative and entertaining
Really different and enjoyable pod. UTV !
Massive villa fan here, first time i have watched your pod cast. Great show lovely comments and im sure a pub is on its way. Utv and Utc
Great channel, quality lads, UTV💜💙
Villa fan first time viewer. Won't be the last. Honest assessment. Good job guys. We''ll see what can be done on the away pub front. Legit complaint. Bournemouth outside bet for European football next year with Iraola in charge for a full season as long as you can hold onto Solanke and Man U keep ten Hag
You guys are one best CZcams channels out there.
Keep up the good work
Always enjoy your channel lads 👌🏻 UTv
Great video! Who needs a pub? Well done you guys, really enjoyed that 😊
The away fans 🙃😂😂😂
I'm happy with 4th 🎉 injoyed vid we will get u that pub next season 😂😂😂
All the best from a Villan💯
I'll subscribe because this is fun .UTV.
Yeah Villa fan and subscribed to an AfC Bournemouth podcast
Enjoyed this and Josh was a star
I’ll keep an eye on your experiences and really, good luck for next season. If you can keep beating Wolves, that would be just grand
UTV
Love it!
Fair/balanced views as always lads & i get the lack of local pub for away fans,but Aston Villa fc can not control private pubs closing or being renovated. As a Villa fan i'm pleased you enjoyed the atmosphere & firmly believe Villa have one of the loudest sets of fans home & away in English football, hopefully you'll have a pub nearer Villa park next season to take the edge off the defeat that awaits you after your pint/grub....Lol.!!....😆.....great show lads, you're popular with many Villa fans,as you've probably seen by the amount of comments,fair play!..... up the mighty Villa!!!! ⚽💜💙✌️
I'm a Southampton supporter with a season ticket next to the away fans enclosure and can confirm that Villa are the only club whose visit actually hurt my ears
Yeah,I can believe it mate,our loyal away support is very good & we always take the maximum allocation we can get & are sold as quick as a flash,in fact Home & Away there's never enough tickets for the volume of demand,at Villa park we've got a capacity of 42.640 & is sold out for every home game,we also have 35.000 on a waiting list for a season ticket,we need a much bigger capacity than what we currently have,we've out grown Villa Park in a big way & although we have planning permission for a new North stand, it's only gonna increase our capacity to 52.000+ which isn't nearly enough, it's also been put on hold twice cos of delays in transport improvements around Villa park & a reduced capacity for 18 months just when we're doing so well. Some might think I'm bias towards Villa,but I can honestly say 100% that Villa fans are one of the best around in terms of noise levels & loyalty to the club whatever happens...... up the mighty Villa!!! 😊
Fair points boys. We’ll do you a pop up pub in Aston Park next year 😊
Respect that mate
Hi lads as always great content,the lack of an away pub is more than likely to do with the area as you would have noticed there are a lot of asians (not the drinking kind) living in wotton and Aston thus tends to lack of pubs and with near full crowds every home match they tender to the home fans ,next time i suggest if you stoop to such levels an offy just after the witton station on the right we get drinks from there and drink them in the gardens of Witton lane opposite the Diug Ellis stand keep up grate work
Hi Sam and Tom, I totally agree that Stadium was rocking that day. As daft as I’m about to sound I would say this season for loudness, 1 Aston Villa as the full stadium was rocking but 2 Man City, those fans around us were raucous,
Personally this was my number 1 away day this season, loved the weather, I enjoyed the game and maybe that’s the tactic to silence the away fans and that’s to give them 3rd degree burns with the fire
See you Sunday
The yenton my local! glad you enjoyed your day out UTV
Next season you can use the Manor Tavern and you can park on next to the pub to and it’s about 10 to 15 mins walk away from the ground
love the content im a villa fan shame about the pubs but they have had a few problems with away fans and with some of the euro ties they decided to prevent away fans drinking to close
It was loud at VP last Monday v Liverpool...our away following is mental tbh. We do need to sort an away pub or two around VP...Great work both and Champions League here we come. UTV 🦁 💜 💙
Love your review. UTV. We need to sort out the pubs, that's not on. and UTC. Loudest fans, that means a lot.
You guys have done well this season, you must be optimistic for next year. Top half finish? Competing for Europe maybe?
Villa fans are everywhere!
You guys are class.actually been keeping an eye on your results since that pod at villa park.keep on bringing the great content.utv
Great idea for a Vlog guys and that’s from a Villa fan. Shame about a pub for the away fans tbh I’ve had a lot ask about that this year. Thanks for the good comments about us tho we have got amazing supporters you only have to see our vlogs about our last game at palace, lost 5-0 never stopped singing and loads stayed for the palace lap of honour. Good luck next year guys UTV
It's sign of the times regarding pubs, there's lots of them closing. People only use them on weekends, very expensive to run.. It's probably best to find one just out of the city if you can..
Villa fan here. home pub situation isn’t much better neither. Some great pubs in brum centre so I’d suggest to any away fans to do what we do get a pint in town and get an Uber or train back to Aston in time for the game. If your into your real ale there’s some top options as well. Love the bud fellas, glad you enjoyed your experience
Long term Villa STH, good and fair assessment lads. Parking over the last 15 years has become awful, if you want to park close to the ground on the roads then its 2+ hours before kick off, otherwise its 20+ minute walk from 1.5+ hour or park at Star City an hour before the game and 30+ minute walk. They have put a new AV82 bus on match days that comes from New Street, so easier for train journeys. But overall travel and parking is something the club need to sort out with the council, who at this time have gone bankrupt. A lot of fans would have supported a new ground being built purely as they are fed up with the parking and travel problems.
I go up to Villa a reasonable amount, and I must say that the pub thing isn’t the best but there is a Tesco down the road which is only £6.50 to park, and you could always get a couple cans there 😏
Pub wise, plenty of options in the city centre and easy train, bus, or taxi from there guys. You're always welcome.
Also guys, you need to understand the context of why there are no pubs for away fans around Villa Park. It's a systemic reason that I'd be happy to explain to you. Just ask me.
Thanks for the nice comments lads, good luck for next season.
Love this vid, I live by the ground and although I've never had an issue.. it is run down, with a full range of white goods available on every street corner 😅
The club can't do much about the local residents and their lack of respect for where they live.
@@marksturch3162 it's extremely frustrating. I loved The Barton Arms, but the walk there from the ground after the game was always depressing no matter what the result.
I recommended The Bartons Arms to you last year so I'm a big fan of old traditional pubs.
If you want other traditional pubs around the area then there's The Manor Tavern, The Albion Vaults and The Villa Tavern. Although keep in mind that I'm not entirely sure whether they take away fans and they're nowhere near as good as The Bartons Arms.
I get free on road parking with a 20 minute walk to the ground and an easy quick drive to get onto the M6 North or South at the end of the game - local knowledge is worth £6 every home game 😁UTV
Next time do the spoons in perry bar. You can also park local to it.
I know it's a spoons but it's close to the ground and you get a few away fans.
2nd one of the week!!!
Best option is drink in the centre and get train to the ground or go Jewellery Quarter great pubs/bars and a short cab ride.
Getting an away pub is going to be hard I’m afraid. The demographics of the area has resulted in so many pubs closing. Villa have also decided to make The Holte Suite, which was used for a pre-game drink, into a premier hospitality area. So there’s even more demand for local boozers. Sorry
Next year, park at star city. Free parking, bowling alley has a bar which we see away fans in all the time. 25 min walk!!
things will enprove once they build the new stand
The Barton Arms should be under new ownership by the start of next season. Go for a pint in there, then walk towards the Holte End via Aston Park and we're winning both leagues.
You should park in the city, loads of great pubs and then get the free bus or train to the stadium next time
Definitely try and come in from the Aston Hall side next time!!
Love villa park. Went by train and drunk in city centre . The day was let down only by sitting in away upper tier where there is No Bar!!!!!
Sorry about the pubs lads. Poorly stocked around Villa Park.
I can understand if your an away fan, The Yew Tree is some way away from Villa Park as well as The Yenton. The yew tree is from what I remember more of a blue nose pub. The Yenton is one of the worst pubs around and considered very low leveI, I've lived in Birmingham for 53 years and supported Villa that long. I know the Yenton very well and would always avoid. Even though It's quite a long way from Villa Park it is classed as a Villa pub as oppossed to a Blues boozer (Birmingham Shitty FC). There are a lot of changes happening at Villa, I see pubs, places to eat are superb for Villa fans. More to come, Remember we planned to extend Villa Park but that was scrapped for now. So whats next for the mighty Villa Park?
Have a drink in the city centre before the match and get the train in! Loads of pubs in the city centre. Park your car at Northfield Park and Ride
Give us our pub back. Give us a pub back
The pub situation is poor for us as well ,best drink in town and get train in .UTV
Pub near ground and up there with Newcastle. Top away day
Imagine the noise when we equalised against Liverpool the other day...
I’d recommend trying to park at star city next time or powerleague. Star city you could then either jump on spaghetti junction or drive down a47 to junction 5 m6
