17..... blimey, that's a bit of a jump
-
Looks like Monday evening for me
-
I'm all for Villa subsidising away matches, but why choose a game which is one of the cheapest to attend for most of our fans?
-
Oh, and if anyone has any spares or references I'm after two or three (after Joe, as he asked first!).
I think I've got more chance of a ticket to the next Presidential Ball, dressed as Osama bin Laden, but it doesn't hurt to ask!
-
Maybe the size of the allocation uses up whatever is left of the money the club set aside for subsiding tickets?

Seems a strange choice. Small allocation and dirt cheap anyway.
-
It's an experience watching football on that terrace I can assure you!

I think the idea is that with such a small allocation, only those people who have been to loads of away games will have a chance to get tickets. The discount is kind of a 'thank you' from the club to those fans who have travelled away so often this season.

Exactly what I think. You'll only be at Burton if you've been to the vast majority of aways.
-
That's fair enough then. I suppose coming towards the end of the season is a good idea, too, on that basis.
-
How many people are in the Away Scheme ?
-
About 600 plus.
-
A guy at the ticket office said 660 when I asked in January, therefore 920 for others.
-
Thursday for me. 20 league aways.
-
You're automatically allocated to standing, but you can enter a ballot for seating.
-
It's a very small section....about 200 seats max I think.
-
If we play Fleetwood next season getting a ticket will be even harder as their capacity is about 1500 smaller than Burton.
-
1100 at Fleetwood although 300 of that is flat standing.
-
Can't see this getting beyond 15+.
-
3 purchased online.
-
Attempted to go online to purchase at 17:00...whole system crashed (theirs)....fcuking joke....
-
...and 3 tickets arrived in post today. How's that for service? Agree with PGW that website is temperamental; hope you got sorted.
-
Unsurprisingly, this has now sold out.

I went up there in December to watch Walsall play....no stretch to say half of it is a non league ground....Sutton/Stourbridge standard.
Amazing to think they could be in the championship.
-
I was hoping that this would get to 13 aways
I'm pretty sure that this is the first time that I've failed to buy a ticket for an away game I wanted to attend
Best add my name to the ticket begging list then
-
Looks like it did make it to fifteen aways, assuming they updated the site soon after they had sold out. Hope PGW got his online issues sorted?
-
I have made other plans for the day now and
hear by hearby hereby withdraw my begging bowl for any spares.
-
Me too, I'm spending the day drinking you'll be surprised to hear. Either PGW or, if he got his tickets, UKRedSox are top of the begging list.
-
Bumpity bumpity.......Does anyone have a spare ?
-
Looking for one adult ticket. Would prefer an away end ticket but will accept a home end ticket. Please PM me. Thanks.
-
No i failed miserably to get my on line issues sorted so failed to get one.
There won't be many of these floating around....more chance of finding rocking horse shit!!!
-
It looks like I have one ticket available as one of our group has gone to America for Easter. Unfortunately it is a U17 and a bit late to change it now. This is in the standing area so no specified area within the stand.
As I know these are difficult to come across so if possible I would like it to go to someone who has been to a few games this year. No cost as it was only £2 in the first place, but donation to charity of your choice or to the site. We can meet at the ground if that is easier or I live just the other side of Tamworth.
