It's a good idea to supply one client reference per seat to build up booking history.

You will be able to buy tickets in person at either Villa Village or New Street, on the phone at 0800 612 0970 or from our ONLINE BOX OFFICE.

Went to this fixture two years ago and am hopeing to repeat the trip this year should there still be tickets left come Friday.  £36 isn't bad for modern prices.  Sadly, we might be playing Arsenal at just the wrong time as it is normally around Feb-Mar when they hit peak form.  Still with our unpredictable form, and theirs too who knows ;)

Have just booked a couple of tickets for me and my mate for this one.  Techically it is his Villa live debut (although he did go to a 0-0 against Blackburn once, but I wasn't with him so it doesn't count ;)).  He is looking forward to seeing a match at the Emirates for the first time, and I am looking forward to another Villa-Arsenal classic too ;D  With both teams unpredictable form this season it is hard to say what will happen,but there are noramally goals at least so don't think he will be seeing another 0-0...

does anyone know if we just sold out the initial 2000 allocation, or whether we requested the additional 1000 at all?

I have a feeling thats our lot, they probably made a call on how quickly they were selling (not very quick) and decided they could couldn't sell another 1000 and be lumbered with paying for them.

I've got a pair of spare tickets. They're next to each other ( with the added bonus of not being anywhere near my seat) if anyone's interested. I'd rather sell them together and only long serving H&V posters need apply

Face value - £36 a piece

No sure what the score is with this sold sold out.
But those of you who are still trying to get a ticket if you log on to villa ticket site at this minute the tab to buy tickets has gone live again and tickets are available to buy. I did it 2 weeks ago when site said sold out.
Could be player staff returns or more available.

Where are people planning on boozing around the ground? Is there a designated away pub in the area?
Title: Re: Arsenal (A) Feb 1st 2015
Post by: Ian on January 28, 2015, 06:34:11 PM
Drinking away pubs. Drayton arms right by the ground. It's quite small.  Or the twelve pins which is by finsbury park station a 15 minute walk away. Both will be full of footballs' finest away support.

So having thought I was unavailable to make Sunday, now I can! If anyone has a spare ticket, please let me know. Many thanks in advance, Ian

Someone told me the Hollow Way road was a good place for pubs and the like, but then he is an Arsenal fan so he might have been just trying to land me in it...

the 12 Pins is big and quite easy to get served. You can order pizza from the take away 10 yards up the road and they'll bring it over to you.  Drayton Arms will be rammed as it's just over the road from the away end and there's usually as many coppers in there as drinkers. I'd avoid both. Plenty of better pubs within a quick walk to the ground

Oh, and if you're thinking of necking a sneaky tin of Stella in any if the roads near the ground, I wouldn't bother. Aint that right, Pat?

And if they do, do you think you might be able to pop back more than once in 18 months?

The 12 pins it is I guess Pizza does sound good.  Not to be anti-social but I don't feel like a crowded pub.  Will try and get there early to check the scene out.  Thanks.
