Villa Comin' to America!!!
For those of you who didn't receive Steve's e-mail, here is an excerpt...
"Some of you may have already come across this news, but for those who haven't, the pre-season tour of the U.S has been confirmed! The dates and locations are as yet to be confirmed, but where ever the games take place, we will try to organize some sort of group travel arrangements. As one of the only official U.S supporters clubs, we will do everything we can to get some sort of benefits from the tour. We will at the very least be able to attend practice sessions and get access to decent match tickets. On top of this, every effort will be made to meet the players and staff of A.V.F.C."
Steve also reported that the club will be running a story on us in the Arsenal match day program, which we'll try to get a copy of. The same story will appear on Villa's official Website. The club are also sending membership cards for us, which will be distributed as soon as Steve receives them.

I hope the U.S tour takes place this summer.I had blast when when Villa were here in 1999.
So good to see the Villa name so far away from Aston.
Hope you guys are as passionate about the Lions as i am - season ticket holder for 3 years now.
Keep up the good work guys!!
Big Up the States Side Villa Massives
Great to see the proud tradition of Villa fans continue and grow in the United states of Amercia
Brilliant to see Aston Villa supported over there, keep it going guys.
I'm hoping to make the trip to The USA to see the games we're playing, I hope the beer is cold and plentiful.
Villa fan from Birmingham here. Great news that Villa are going over to America. Would be nice to play New York and catch up with Angel again.
I was in America a couple months ago, at the airport, wearing my Villa shirt (with Petrov, number 11 on the back). A guy tapped me on the shoulder, who happened to be Bulgarian, and we had a chat about Petrov and Villa. Amazing, especially when your 3,500 miles away from Birmingham!
And finally, good luck to Angel in New York. I'll be keeping an eye out on their results. I've already ordered the Red Bulls shirt with Angel, number 9!
Aston Villa 100 premiership goals DVD. Its a great compilation of the 100 greatest goals from Aston Villa's years in the premiership.and has no region code so it plays here In the U.S.A
You'll love it.

Hi everyone,
Hope you are all well. My name is Paddy Grace and I edit the highlights of all the Villa home games- I am also a huge fan! I am coming to New York at the end of May with my friend who is a Holte End Season ticket holder.
We have been Villa fans for nearly 20 years and have claret and blue blood running through our veins!!
It would be great to meet some international Villa fans.. we are in New York around the 22nd May and we are hoping to see the Red Bulls play (including Juan Pablo)!!
My email address is patrickgrace85@hotmail.com if anyone would like to meet up for a few beers!
Up the Villa!!!
