i love this town. It used to all run like clockwork: buisnesses were staying open; people were working; people were friendly'. But then after covid, buisnesses started shutting down, people were going unemployed, but the people are still alright(maybe just a bit crazy)

I don’t mean to be nasty but Blues last,what a surprise being a Villa fan. This is why Midlands fans dislike Villa. History wise and ground is number one and well deserved but you come over really arrogant. Villa are the biggest club in the Midlands and will be for a long time but you’ve won nothing for ages. The competition is weak though you are having a great run right now. How you can put Coventry above the Albion is unbelievable! A shitty arena against an historic ground like The Hawthorns is just taking the piss. Again you can’t put Blues below Walsall and that’s not to deny they gave a nice ground. You’re delusional,it seems you just want to highlight your own team. Wolves is a fantastic ground and again full of history. I’m a West Brom fan and I’m honest and sincere but you have just stereotyped what people think about Villa. Blues have had more recent trophy success. Wake up mate and don’t be so prejudiced. Good luck in the Champions league,you have earned that but you need to get a reality check. Coventry is a stadium arena not a ground. Mic drop🎤

Well, thank you for watching anyway even if you don't agree. I hope all West Midlands clubs look to improve all of their grounds and make the area something that we can all be proud of. I recently visited all the 10 Yorkshire football clubs and some of their grounds like Hull City, Leeds United, Huddersfield Town, etc. were great to walk round even on non-match days. Displays of previous great teams, statues of club heroes, blue plaques of moments to remember, displays of community involvement etc.. all make grounds locations to visit. Doncaster Rovers in particular had much of this when I went round the Yorkshire ones and I have no perceived bias around those clubs.

Thanks for watching. I hope Blues get promoted as they have a lot of heritage and this they should be proud of, and as you say were the last WEST Midlands side to win something, Leicester may have something to say about the other side of the Midlands though! Other clubs had statues and something to see around the ground. I hope those are part of the plans for your new ground as increasingly grounds are becoming venues to visit and enjoy walking round. Wolves for example had 3 statues to see and were visibly proud of their past. Who would you want to see a statue of or a display of a particular era of one of your sides?

Council spends is a massive problem across a lot of the North of England, and they all seem to be stretched. It’s a shame when good towns aren’t how we remember them from 30-40 years ago.

The few people who go around markets during the week have very limited spending such as pensioners. Some people want things given. Parking is a big problem. Notice all the yellow lines. Lots of parking restrictions in town centre with parking enforcement officers walking around. It's so much easier and safer to shop at supermarkets and out of town retail outlets. Local councils have for many years been starved of cash by central government and this doesn't help along with a lack of imagination.
