Get yerself down to Villa Park and grab a season ticket boys and girls. Things are on the way up!
If you do I am next in the queue.

You have no idea how much I wish I could.
Lightweight.


I'll make sure I definitely come over next year and I'll get a seat near your new season ticket at a game. I will also gladly buy you a beverage or two after. How's that?

If I get a S/T next season I will pay your air fare and get you on the sub's bench.
If not when you are over I will be the first to.get a beer.
My home brew is coming along very nice and strong.

you'll be glad to hear I'm as almost as good as Wilian on today's showing. I'll take you up on your offer and look forward immensely to your home brew.

I have a 2 year old barley wine with your name on.

You would assume that most tickets on Viagogo are season tickets being sold by ST holders who can't go to the game,

I'd say Viagogo seats are mainly supplied by the club. Obviously the 1s and 2s are supporters that can't go. But when you're talking about whole bunches of up to 6 at a time (especially in the Upper Trinity) that's got to be the club offloading

What i find incredibly bizarre is these seats are the top price bracket ones yet are sold for as little as a tenner. Why don't the club just drop the price to £20 themselves and then i'm sure they'd shift em via the ticket shop?

I got two for the upcoming Fulham game in A1 for a combined total inc postage of £12.68. That was with a Viagogo discount code but nonetheless





They may be in the top price bravket but the Upper Trinity is the last part of the ground to fill. Apart from the front few rows, it is too high up and far from the action.

Dad turns 65 in November so was hoping to get his ST next season cheaper. Rang today to ask about it and was told the date is 1st September to qualify. He said fine, can you just buy match tickets until December then buy a half ST when he will be 65. Was told no, date of 1st Sept will still apply. How do they work that out? Been a ST holder over 20 years and says daft he has to wait for another season now before getting the discount.

I would have thought that they could do a pro rata arrangement. if you were buying away tickets mid-season that would definitely be the case.

It cuts both ways, my nephew turns 18 in December so is entitled to renew at the under 18 rate as he is still 17 as of 1st September.

I bought a six year (for the price of five) season ticket for Edgbaston. Owing to turning 60 during that period, I got a further discount.

That's a bugger of a date, my birthday's on the 30th August :-(

There's no way the pension age is going to be that low in 2048 anyway, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I did the same - it was great value and the extra discount was an added benefit that i wasn't aware of.

Also the annual membership fee at Warwickshire has been frozen for yet another season and a pint of Banks Bitter was £3 in he members lounge last season. Top flight football is on a trajectory to another planet. Villa are doing their best but the force is not with them.
