Title: Rapid Vienna Home Tickets
Post by: HTFCacc2007 on August 18, 2010, 07:02:46 AM: Good morning all,

I was just wondering if anyone had received their Europa League home tickets for next week? I am a member of the cup scheme, so am due to get this game for free as I joined before 31 May. I can see the transaction has gone through on the Online ticketing system but no tickets!

Cheers,

Adam

I don't think so. When I bought my Valencia ticket, I was told that the Europa game would be a paper ticket as well

This used to be easy to check on the old version of Pravda but I can't find the info on the new site

I am in the cup scheme and I was told that I would receive a paper ticket "shortly".

Post by: BedsVillain on August 18, 2010, 07:58:35 PM: Mine not arrived yet either, hopefully it's because they had 40,000 to print and there's a back log!

Mine have been received... only branding on them is Villa's not UEFA's. FXPro, Nike and Barclays Premier League. Not sure why we need paper tickets. We had them in the FA Cup last year too even though Olbiyun fans used their season cards. Maybe they are scared the system won't work properly. Perhaps O'Neill took our IT expert with him.

They are freebies for renewing season ticket before 31st May and joining cup scheme, as promised by the club.

Nice one.
