Title: Season Ticket Relocation weekend
Post by: nii_lamptey on July 05, 2013, 06:54:49 PM
Anyone planning to head down/call up tomorrow to try and move seats? If so, where are you looking for and what time are you starting to queue?

Mods - please feel free to move if better elsewhere

Get roughly? Robbery with menace? You'll still have 1400 quid left over on a premium ST. Go for a VIP seat with 1874 lounge access?

I'm not renewing as I have a new job working regular Saturdays now and my lad goes off to Uni this Autumn.  Therefore our 2 seats in Trinity Lower, Block C3, Row 9, Seats 110 & 111 will be available if anybody wants to move to them tomorrow.

Great seats shame to give them up but there you go, some great memories with my lad over the last dozen years watching him grow into a true Villa fan.  Taking your lad to football is one of life's great treats, will still try and get to as many games as I practically can no doubt there will be plenty of our games moved from the traditional Saturday 3pm fixture time.

For through this am and tried to shuffle 2 seats in P8. Not a cat in Hells chance I was told. There's a waiting list to get into P8 now apparently.

Is this the Villajk, DCF, Leeg section ?

Yes P8 next to the away fans.

More likely to be due to the huge diff in price between these seats and all other ST's in the ground Villajk, I wonder how long these heavy discounts will remain on these seats, hopefully the club will have the good sense to rotate this offer so its available to all long term ST holders.  If its oversubscribed then ballot it.

Would be very harsh on those already established and happy in their seats to have them balloted - expect to be rightly cracked over the head with Pauline's brolly sir!   :o

We could say the same about other areas in the ground that are oversubscribed and not due to price.  Ie the middle of the Middle Trinity.

You can probably stand at ease regarding a response from Dcf.  He's working away this weekend and then we're off to Germany so doubt he'll have the time or inclination to respond.

When I spoke to the TO today the bloke explained why those seats were so cheap, he said it was available to anyone who wanted to show the commitment during the McLeish bad times and also were prepared to sit right next to the away fans which for lots of villa fans isn't an option. First come first served I guess.

I thought that you'd signed for Spurs. Did you fail the medical ?

The low cost is also due to the closeness to a certain H&V'er around who(m)* unfortunate events have been known to occur.

(* I never know which it is and I've got a Grade "A" English O Level I'll have you know)

Ballot? Think of all the family groups and lads with Dads that would split up.
