Any date for sale?  I presume half STs count the same as normal ones?
I want tickets for this sooo bad. I can see a couple of days in the second city on the cards here, a win at the sty and loads of beer at Snobs afterwards. Come on.

Snobs.  :D

It was sent via an e-mail (along with Ticket information) from the guy who runs the Lions Clubs.

Absolute disgrace from Villa.

How many of our core away following will have actually been to BOTH carling cup games this year??? I go to 10-15 away games a year and have a season ticket yet because I couldn't make it to the CC fixtures I have to miss out!

How can it be that someone who travels 1000+ miles following villa misses out on an away game yet someone who fancied a couple of cheap tickets for VP in half term week can snap up any remaining tickets.

Pathetic.

Where does it say that you can't get a Blues ticket if you have'nt been to the Cup Games? You've got a season ticket, you should be ok.

edit. Sorry just read it on the OS. I agree, away followers should get priority.

Or you could argue that why should someone who hasn't been to a Cup game this season get a ticket before someone who has been to both?

Cant see what your problem is  .

those that have been to most games get given priority.

season ticket + 5 aways + 2 Ccup games is every game(bar uefa cup)  why should you get priority over them if youve missed games  .

But some people go away every week and couldn't make both carling cup home games and they could miss out.

As for the allocation like i just said in the other thread i hope it was the police who limited our allocation and not us agreeing with Blues to just accept 3800 tickets, they give teams 4200 in the league so we should have been entitled to at least that.

I doubt there is very few that go every week but didnt make the cup games.

They have done it as fair as they possibly can , the more games you've been to the better chance you have of getting one.

It will go down to season tickets + 2 CCup games

As sister of top cat posted on the other thread, the club informed us of the criteria they would use at the start of the season.

Just a suggestion but as those two games we're so cheap, why didn't you just spend £20 and buy a ticket for each game, and not gone to the game. It may not be fair but if thats what you have to do then it's worth it for games like this, you may even have been able to sell them. You should be ok with what you have already. Also the club did announce their ticketing policy at the start of the season.
Good Luck.
