I renewed yesterday.

Would have waited until as late as possible if McLeish stayed.

"Villa are sending out special season ticket loyalty badges, which we urge fans to wear on matchdays to help them stand out from the crowd.

It's a way of us saluting your support and helping you demonstrate yours as a season ticket holder.

The badges are silver but fans who have held a season ticket for ten consecutive years will receive a gold one.

Remember to keep hold of your badge for it is to be worn season after season after season, until the day comes when you upgrade from silver to gold."

Will have to dig out my Blue Peter , World Cup Willie , Tinger and Tucker , Roberstons Jam (not allowed to name the doll anymore) and Chipper club badges to go alongside my silver season ticket holders badge

It's clearly aimed at kids and the old fashioned sorts who are used to the days when collecting football badges was the thing to do.

Fine, it's not everyone's cup of tea, but you can't fault the club for trying. 

There's a guy who stands outside the Holte End before every game selling badges - if there wasn't a market for it he wouldn't be there.  And every time I walk past him someone is looking intently at the badges he's got for sale.

VCTM- I wil see your Tinger And Tucker and raise you a Tufty Club badge.

Although I normally applaud the efforts of the Marketing department this smacks of the Tony Hancock Blood Doner sketch. I can imagine Gold badge holders sneering at Silver in a holier than thou fashion.

It will end in tears I'll tell ye.

The pop-ups from that green double-underlined text are irritating.
