We Sold Out weeks in Advance and there must have only been 300 empty in Away End yet it looks like we haven't sold all our tickets? Where have the seats gone? Can villa inform the relevant people of our new, lower capacity. 16th looks rather embarrasing

Were the restricted view seats in the Witton/Holte corner used ?
What about that section of the Lower North that is now covered in tarp ?

The seats that half fill the corner between the DE and North stand were empty, as was the section above that in the away end, ie the very left uppermost away bit of the DE as you look at it from the Trinity. Then the small restricted view bit of the Lower Holte Right, underneath the security/TV bit (or whateever it is) was also empty. I'll post a couple of pictures in a minute.

Yet I believe the game was 'sold out' to Villa supporters. So if they're not going to sell these seats to Villa fans then surely they should reduce the official capacity accordingly?

It was. they went on general sale on 2nd and i forgot about it until the 3rd at which point it was sold out.

You'll need to click on the bottom one to expand it to see what I mean.

It will be interesting to see the attendance Friday when Everton sell out and we are at maximum capacity.
Those seats in the pic must only add up to a few hundred? I just don't understand where seats have disappeared to?
-
It looks like Everton is too - looking now there is 1 seat available in M4, so what will that crowd be?
-
We need peter w back, he'd get to the bottom of it.

Blimey Risso, I didn't know that you were in the posh seats :)
I should be somewhere in the second pic but I can't spot myself

I'll look for the sunlight gleaming off your head!

It includes corporate seats as well, which we have around 2500.
-
I was going to say the capacity includes all the corporate seats so if that hasn’t sold out it’s likely to be a fair bit below what you’d expect. (Quickly revises GTC guess)
