Will we be able to pay on the door tomorrow?

Not for the Villa end. There may be tickets available in the home end, but you should probably call them and book before hand just in case that changes.

It's pay at the turnstile in the home end and side for a normal league game so it's not going to be any different tomorrow when there'll be far fewer home fans than for a  league game.

I would definitely check that out first as WMP said there would be not tickets available to buy on the day.Whether that was just referring to the Away fans I don't know.Probably best to ring Burton and check

Lenny in Tickets and Travel has said we will be able to pay on the gate in the home end, as Burton are expecting Villa fans to turn up without tickets.

There are plenty of Villa fans who live in and around Burton, particularly Swadlincote. With Lichfield and Tamworth just on the doorstep the home areas will be mixed.
Burton aren't going to turn away extra cash.

Is it likely to be a strong team or fringe players / reserves / youth ??

A reminder for those not attending, this game and all the North American tour games are live on AVTV, which is free if you're a season ticket holder.

Just realised we're playing Forest away.

For three and a half years I've had residence in Nottingham, and for longer than that I've been hoping they'd get promoted just for that one fixture.

Sods law it happens 3 days after my tenancy agreement finishes. Might not go out of spite, that'll learn 'em.

Might be a decent crowd that, seeing as they've just won the lottery.

Exactly the same situation here. My tenancy finishes the week before. Still going to go though, I like the City Ground. I do remember we drew Notts County away during my four years in Nottingham.. The only problem being the 'or Manchester City' part.

Man City got a very late equaliser to take that to a replay if I remember correctly. Then Villa chose to withdraw.

I think that the buses have sold out. Details for the game and other info here : http://www.facebook.com/events/359316637445257/

It would appear so. There's 2 of us with possibly another 2 flying in from Toronto so we can always cab it. Cheers for the FB link, I sent CV a message.
