Surprised no one has started a thread so here goes as am seeking advice :
According to the criteria I am in the varied booking history which puts me below someone who might have only gone to 2 games last season which seems unfair unless I am reading it wrong ?
My situation - season ticket holder for many years up to and including last season; bought tickets for the Albion cup game, the semi, the final and Arsenal away; moved my seat twice last season and bought additional tickets for my son on both occasions but put them on his reference.
So technically, I only booked 1 home game last season (Albion) - any thoughts ?
-
If you had a ST last season I would assume you qualify to buy on this date.
From Thursday September 10: On sale to supporters with a 5+ home booking history from 2014/15.
-
That's what I'm hoping for PWS but it's not clear !
-
You should have at least a 19 game booking history for a ST last season, best bet is give them a call tomorrow to double check.
-
Thanks will do
-
Are people expecting this game to sell out ? Personally I can see it being about 36k
-
Funnily enough I don't think it will either, I just want a better choice of ticket hence my OP :)
-
How many seats are in R1?
I reckon about 38k overall, IIRC even the Bradford semi didn't sell out
-
Was talking to a bloser colleague earlier and he said that their next two home games are sold out because they have to buy tickets for those two in order to qualify for a cup ticket at Villa Park. So have they gone for their full 15% allocation?
-
They were given 2,800 tickets and wont be getting any more

He's telling you fibs.

I booked tickets at the New St shop earlier. Had to wait about half an hour but the queue had doubled by the time I left. Chatting to the lady serving who said it was her first day back after holiday, had no idea of the draw and was expecting to have a nice easy day to ease her back into it.

talking bollocks lol
they have around 10k st holders and 2.8k tickets so loads of their st holders wont get tickets
-
Useless wankers won't answer the phone. Why have they got rid of the perfectly good hold system that tells you what number you are in the queue to replace it with a permanent engaged tone?
-
Getting this message when trying to buy 2 tickets for myself and brother both with valid criteria (Villa Cash with 5+ games) client refs when proceeding to checkout:
Unfortunately, you are attempting to purchase more tickets for a match than you are allowed to. Please double check, and remove items from your basket to proceed.
Anyone else getting the same problem?
edit: resolved by purchasing tickets individually so something may be wrong with the online ticket office preventing us purchasing multiple tickets even if it allowed to assign to valid client ref. Weird.

I'd be surprised if it gets past 30,000 for a League Cup 3rd round game. We didn't sell out did we for an FA Cup qtr final last season when there were nearly 4,000 more away fans.
I hope I'm wrong, but the hype usually outweighs reality.
-
I'd be shocked if it wasn't a sell out.
Tickets are shifting very quickly.
Edit: for the attendance guessers out there, it will be a reduced capacity, as block R1 isn't available for sale due to increased segregation. I'm unsure if they've extended it in the Witton upper and lower too.

We got 22,000 against Notts County, it will be 35,000 at least. Personally I think it will be about 38,000 although I hope it sells out to shut the noses up. The trouble is there's nearly always empty seats in the Upper Trinity as nobody wants to sit up there.
-
It won't sell out unless tickets go on general sale which they won't
Or season ticket holders only are allowed to buy extra tickets

That wont happen either

Does anyone have a ref number I could get with two home games from last year? I've pimped all our members client ref numbers out and I have someone that wants to come up with me from London.
Thanks.

I wonder if the Mail will continue their ongoing narrative about how the fans are flocking back to the Sty...
