Is it possible to get an away season ticket?
-
You can sign up for the Away Scheme...guaranteed ticket for each away game.

How would that work? Prices are set by the home club so the Villa wouldn't know what it's going to cost over the course of a season.
As fmwmu has said, the closest you can get is the away scheme which allocates you a ticket for each away game as and when they go on sale. Although I think you can only join the scheme if you have a home season ticket.
-
Should be some decent away trips next season if we are in the Championship, along with some not so great ones.
-
The CIA are considering adding it to their coercion portfolio.

Goodbye to provincial backwaters like Liverpool and Manchester, hello to the fleshpots of Ipswich and Huddersfield.

Although if you're into real ale Huddersfield will probably be the best day out of the season. (And I might well be looking for a spare ticket so I avoid having to keep my head down in the home end).
-
Are you fucking Mad....a home one is bad enough!
-
Just for a matter of interest; how many Villa Faithful sign up for the away scheme?
Anyone have an idea?
-
It's usually around 600-700.

Thanks Ads :-)

Would love to be in a position to want one, but playing every day of the week, at goodness knows what time puts the stops to that thought. Surprised we don't have afternoon kick offs midweek in the league we are joining.
How I am going to hate Channel 5 next season
-
Is the Away scheme only open to home season ticket holders or can anyone join ?

Season ticket holders and the scheme is full according to the OS
-
That's good going, as it hadn't been taken up in full the past couple of seasons.

Lots of new grounds to visit and potentially pathetic allocations.

Think I worked out that Burton would give us an allocation of about 700, so if you're not in the away scheme you're unlikely to get a ticket to that one.

It's more like 1400-1800 at Burton.

Not quite so bad then
-
Lowest allocation will probably be 1100 at Brentford, although the games midweek in Feb. Preston, Barnsley, Huddersfield, Wednesday and newly developed Bristol City should all be 4-5000. Blackburn won't be a problem either. 1800 for Forest will be one of the most sought after, I'd have thought. A lot will also depend on away games being moved to a weekday night for Sky.

I've mostly had my head in the sand about the fact we got relegated but every now and again realisation dawns.
Are we seriously in the same division as Brentford? I'd been kidding myself that it'd be like the 1st division in the late 80s, early 90s with Wednesday, Leeds, Newcastle, Forest, Derby, etc. But Brentford?!
-
First Lge game against Brentford since 59-60. That was also in the second tier.
-
Only 1800 at Forrest?
-
They only give you just over half of the lower tier these days. Started off as a tit for tat with Derby a couple of years ago, and they've kept it going since.

Glad I went to the pre season friendly a couple of years back. I never really pictured us having a league match against them !

Huddersfield is midweek too. We might struggle to shift 4-5000 on a Tuesday night in March....
-
The latest (unconfirmed) story is as low as 650 for Burton.
-
Can't see it being less than the 1400, the away end holds. 400 seats are usually made available too.
-
Incidentally, what the fuck are Wednesday playing at? Less than four weeks til the game up there and they haven't even announced ticket prices yet.
Is this the level of professionalism we can expect from the Championship? I bet Burton have got their tickets on sale for the first game of the season.
-
Shudder to think what Wednesday want to charge us. I think there is something hopefully going on in the background (e.g. an agreement between the clubs) to keep the prices down, otherwise it is likely to be £40 plus.
-
Might also be allocation haggling going on as I assume they can let us use both tiers.
-
Just looked on Wednesdays site. Nothing about individual games, but their dearest match day ticket is £52!. That's what they'd like to charge us, I bet. Their dearest ticket on their Kop is £45.
-
£52 is outrageous.
I would imagine we're arguing the toss and offering reciprocal pricing. I feel like the club owe me anything above £30 this season, the useless oiks.
-
They are in effect a wannabe Villa without a trophy history.
-
There is a bunch of reciprocal pricing haggling going on. The allocation at Burton will be shit and the away scheme is being capped at 550-600.

Yes, I went to that as well, so not too worried about going in the league. Mad to think that they're in the same division as us, but fair play to them.
-
I was at that game as well. Never crossed my mind that I might go back there for a league game
