These 15 quid tickets for the Blackburn game...
« on: August 10, 2011, 09:49:05 AM »
The O/S making a big thing that these tickets are available in Blocks K1/7 and L1/2/8/9 of the Holte and you can only purchase them online...

So hence my complete lack of surprise that I click on these sections and can't find them anywhere!

Anyone had any luck?

Those parts of the ground are the Upper Trinity wings and Lower Holte wings, hope that helps

Tried them, just getting the standard tickets at the moment.

If you use this link and then choose your seat and then use the arrow it does give you the option of paying £15.00

15 quid? When I was in town on Monday I went to the New St. shop and bought my first ever Old Codgers ticket. It cost me 19 quid for a seat in K1. Maybe I should check Pravda more often.
And to add insult to injury the young lady on the counter didn't even ask me for proof of age ID. :'( This despite my mates always telling me I don't look 65. Either the young lady is a trusting soul or my so called mates are a bunch of lying twats. >:(

I wouldn't worry too much about them not checking your age, I'm only 16 but have got into the ground using an over 65 ticket on two occasions last season!

shame on you. Defrauding  a multi million pound business out of much needed  revenue is akin to the shameful scenes  we've seen on our TV screens over the past few days. ;D Hopefully West Midlands Police will have your picture on their website along with all the other miscreants. :)

Bastards - I paid £26 each for the Lower Holte even though I usually go in the Holte Wings! Silver lining though - I'm taking my new girlfriend and fifteen notes might have made me look a bit of a cheapskate, especially if they said something on them like 'Internet Special Price'.

Cant believe the Villa are having to do internet deals £15 and family tickets for £50!

Dont get me wrong i think its a good idea recession etc, but are the crowds going to be that low against Blackburn FIRST GAME of the season, you dont normally see these deals until later on in the year.

i think it's good that the club do it.

Blackburn as a spectacle is shit so I wouldn't pay 25 quid but would pay 15 quid.

Matchday prices have been increased again this season, it's 26 quid to sit in the North stand upper against Blackburn when probably 3 seasons ago it was only probably 20 quid for the same game.

Of course the down side is that she will think that if you can afford 50 quid for two tickets to the Villa, you can afford other things for her to get pampered with.   

It's how they work.

Nah, it's okay, she's already paid me back...Can't say I have twenty-six quid back in the pocket but who's complaining? ;-)
