Now Villa have finally tasted defeat at the Amex do you know who is next down the Football League Tables pyramid (as it currently stands) who have played a competitive match at the Amex but yet to suffer a loss at the hands of the mighty Seagulls on our home soil ?
I do apologise if this has been covered already but I'm pretty sure we have recently reduced the length of the pitch. I noticed it at the Roma game (more space behind the South goal and the South stand).
