Does anyone know if you can get your money back for a season ticket now unwanted?
I would seriously consider it after what has just happened and get a decent audio system in the living room for the radio/iPod/tv instead.
I'm guessing probably not, but just wondered if anyone knew.
No doubt I'll get a drubbing off some for it, but football in general just seems shit at the moment, and the MON incident really forced it home to the point where I'm thinking "what's the point?".

Strange thing to do. You are a VILLA fan, afterall.

True. But I'm also a music fan and could see myself getting more enjoyment out of a decent sound system to listen to the radio or my iPod.
I also think football is very strange at the moment. Strange as in shit.
But, as you said, I am a Villa fan...
-
I wouldn't give mine up just because a manager has left, but I'd would like to be told WHY he has left and who else is being sold so i could then make an informed decision.

Wait and see where MON goes and go and buy one there.

He's just a manager.....
-
Write to O'Neill and ask him to stump up the £500. He's got us into this mess after all.
-
Crazy idea, but you could contact the club and ask them.
-
How long have you had a season ticket?

I will do, just wondered if anyone knew or had done it previously.
-
How long have you had a season ticket?
This will be my 4th in a row. Previously I'd had 4 season tickets in a row before going to Uni in Leeds, September 1999.
-
The club is bigger than any man so stick with us.

Deep breaths, shoulders back and say the words "fuck it, I'm a Villa fan and no bastard is going to stop me going".

I don't know, you spent most of last season moaning about the football and the team in general and then as soon as the Manager of the said team leaves you want a refund.
-
I brought one last year then had a refund as finances changed. When I renewed I said that my circumstances may change and the club said if a ball hasn't been kicked you are entitled to a refund and I had one

I did nothing of the sort! You must have me mixed up with someone else. I've always thought no-one would be better than MON and was extremely happy with the way things were going. Yes, sometimes the football could be a bit crap, but MON was the right man in my opinion.
My only gripes about the team, in general and not concerning just one match, was Petrov and Cuellar at right-back.

Grow some balls and BE BOTHERED.

Grow some balls and BE BOTTHERED.
Yes, we all love a bit of BOTTHER.
-
One of the reasons I gave up my ticket was I was sick of O'neill, If they get someone decent in and buy a few I might renew myself
-
I'm sure you will get a great deal on a sound system at Currys during the August Bank holiday sales.
Enjoy your music.
I'll stick with going to the Villa though.

It's all a bit emotional today.
If you can get a refund today, you will still be able to in a couple of days. Why don't you sleep on it a couple of nights and see if you still feel the same?

Sounds like a good idea.
However, if any of those being touted for the job is manager by Saturday, then I'd probably have to get the refund I think.

I can't understand why anyone would want a refund - in football these things happen and the team needs its fans even more on Saturday now.
( Contact lens problems = poor spalling, sorry)

People are fickle indeed...
I am now considering going back to Vienna and joining the away scheme!
The club is much bigger than any manager, he was never mistreated and the club deserves our support. I am actualy hoping that more of these types of supporters get a refund because they have been doing my head in over the last 4 years.

I've looked into it myself, Clause 1.7 states - Season tickets are non-refundable, unless returned in tact prior to the first home game of the season.
I'm getting my dough back, if we haven't had a fire sale by the end of the window I'll renew it again. If we have raped the playing staff I'm offski for goodski!
-
This is the time when the club needs all the support it can get... and it will from me because Aston Villa is greater than any man!
-
Don't believe this thread!

MON was a great manager but he's gone it's still Aston Villa even if we we're playing in League Two i'd still follow them i love them more than any manager ever will. Who's to say whoever comes in as manager wont do an even better job. I was one who sat on the fence about MON i thought the performances of last season we're average at best in a lot of cases and we seemed short of ideas but i backed him cause we we're doing ok. I'm looking forward to a new era. Don't live in the past folks Martins gone and we will find out eventually why. I think he had the mannerisms of Brian Clough in that he was a control freak and couldn't stand being told what to do. Don't give your season tickets up folks see what happens i don't think it's time for doom and gloom just yet.

Knee jerk reaction. Kepp your season ticket and get behind the club. O'Neill is not bigger than Villa. No one is.
Keep the faith - you never know what's around the corner...

I can't afford Vienna and and can't make that majority of away games... as I can't afford it. I was just trying to make the point that I am more excited about playing in Europe with a manager that may put the effort in and looking forward to watching better football.
-
Me and my mate were actually on our way to Villa park to renew when the news broke. We ummed and arrddd for abit (he got interviewed by the mail) until finally getting them. We found it hard to think of any available manager that we would want. We looked to the heavens for a sign.
My mate likes a moan, atleast he'll probably have a reason this year.
-
How about growing up, picking your dummy and teddy bear up and getting behind the Villa. It shouldn't matter who the gaffer is, you go to support Aston Villa. Managers come and go always have always will.
-
Oddly enough I am more excited about Saturday now and looking forward to getting behind the team under difficult circumstances.

You know how these things can go though. I hope we can just have a day watching the team but if things don't go well on the pitch then we might see a backlash. Oddly enough I am more excited about Saturday now and looking forward to getting behind the team under difficult circumstances.

Not me, I'm worried about the potential backlash and division amongst fans should we get off to a bad start. I just want to go down and support the team, sadly that will not be the case for everyone.

Well said !!
I shall be travelling the 120 or so miles to B6 to support Aston Villa.

Keep the season ticket, get down there on saturday and with a bit of luck we might get to see a right back, playing at right back :)

Theres some fucking crap posted on here these days !!
A right back playing right back ?
Bloody idiot

When I heard the news I decided not to renew, but having slept on it and thought it through, I'm quite looking forward to Saturday now.

Dear Moderators,
Can you please with knobs on it rename this thread "Can Carew Be Bothered Be Bothered"?
-

I am now looking forward to the season for the first time this year.
Just checked my season ticket, by the way. It indicates that I have a seat to watch Aston Villa and makes no mention of blind loyalty to O'Neill. Good riddance to him.

Any chance of you de-registering from here while you're at it?
You clearly have a problem with all things Villa so why not take up a hobby that you enjoy (& being a full time moaner doesn't count) or you could go forth & follow Man U or CFC?

I always root for chaos. I suppose its the old wannabe journalist in me, hoping for the best story
