It's about the same as we usually give away fans for a ground that holds 10K more, just because we'd sell more doesn't change that it's a good allocation.

As others have alluded to, the Wednesday game doesn't really matter to this one. We could have sold 10,000 Wednesday tickets in 3 hours, it wouldn't change the point that getting over 3,000 at Derby when they have around a 32k capacity is more than a fair number.

I'm not suggesting it's unfair. It's just not a good allocation. Not Derby's fault but unfortunately lots of Villa fans will likely be disappointed.

Purchased this morning. The way I see it is we were taking reduced allocations last season and still not selling aways out until the death. Therefore if people havent got the criteria to go than that's there fault. 3k for Derby is exactly what we used to get when they were in the Prem. It's a very fair allocation.

I never said it wasn't fair. It's still not good though.

Perhaps we might be a bit more obliging if you came on here for anything other than asking for tickets.

Derby have very good support and will get over 30k for this no problem so can't really see how we'd get 4-5k tickets unless it's a cup game.

I remember on previous visits to Derby they have given us around 3k allocation behind the goal, however I think they have moved the away section to one of the corners now.

As a 'Derby' Villan; I am quite often reminded at work, that Derby have 25000 season ticket holders.

So having 3000 odd tickets is OK.

It would be the same if they had come up the other season and played us in the premier league. Really don't see what the problem is...we can take 5k to likes of Barnsley and Wigan.
