Aston Villa are giving supporters the opportunity to chat to some of their heroes over the coming months!

As we all continue to navigate our way through challenging times all over the world, it’s important to keep in regular communication with friends and family to remain positive, stay connected and lift spirits.

We’re no different here at Villa Park as we approach 12 months without fans present at matches, but we remain a close-knit Villa family.

So we’re hosting a series of Q&A’s with former players and inviting fans to join, giving you a chance to talk directly to your favourite Villans!

It is exclusive to Pride Rewards and available to 2019/20 season ticket holders and members.

You can use your rewards points to enter into a raffle, with 15 fans selected at random to be on each Zoom video call.

The first two calls have been a big hit with fans, with Darius Vassell and Lee Hendrie first up before Tony Dorigo and Mark Walters took part.

Shaun Teale and Bryan Small are the next former Villans featuring on Thursday, March 4 from 4-5pm.

Supporters can enter now on Pride Rewards, with the closing date on Monday, March 1 at 11.59pm.

Fans who have been successful will then be contacted by someone at the club to confirm details.

Keep an eye out for more players and further calls announced over the coming weeks.

Please note, players are subject to change dependent on availability.

Sales of new memberships are still on hold for the 2020/21 season. However, the club are in the process of planning and reviewing our membership offering with a view to releasing a new range of memberships containing a diverse set of benefits for the 21/22 season.

You can also join a Lions Club or sign up for a free Digital Membership all year round.
