Four hours from Euston? Why did you get the London Midland service? You can do it in a bit over an hour on a Virgin service.

After months of saying I wouldn't be renewing, I've now gone and renewed earlier than ever before! The cheap ST deals swung it for me. I had planned to pay game by game, but guaranteeing your seat at £15.50 per game was too tempting.

Not sure how many people are aware of these offers though. I went down to the ticket office late afternoon yesterday and there were no other customers in there, and just one member of staff! There appears to be plenty of cheap ST left too.

I went with London Midland because I left it a bit late to book my normal train (via Reading) and they were doing London to Birmingham for £7 return. Never again though, I'd rather pay more to get there and back a lot quicker.

Update. There are around 30 seats left in P8.

Had a call from a friend and just been done and booked 6. Near the back but definitely still seats for £295 and we will just move across a block for most games.

Good value at £695 for 2 adults and 2 kids.

I notice they have been marketed as Value Season Tickets but what if the football is poor again as it has been for a lot of this season? Surely its not value then.

It is less bad value than more expensive seats in those circumstances.

I see what you are saying, but with the family deal it works out around £18 for me and my son per game.

Having had a season ticket for 27 of my 37 years on this planet it has been a challenge that pushed me to the brink of giving up a real labour of love, but Villa won again.

I doubt we will be as bad next season as the manager will have to make a mark in the summer.

We seem to be linked with some reasonable free transfers which hopefully will see some added quality to the youngsters coming through and I can't believe our midfield will be as weak again next season.
