For any old 'uns going to Cardiff, be aware that Villa are advertising tickets at £20 for over 65's when it's actually £20 for over 60's as shown on the match ticket.

Thanks for the tip, Tommy. Another thing to watch for, if you are in the away scheme, is the various concessions that other clubs do. If one of your group is below 21, but not a juvenile, they will often qualify for a discount for u-21 or u-18 etc, but the club will not tell you this. You have to alert them to it on each occasion.

Good point Jon. My younger son has got an Under 22's £20 ticket.

Is it a free coach game? I can't get the website to work properly on my phone.

Yes. First ten coaches are, I believe.

Its only a small allocation down there for away fans and given its a new ground and not too far away, it will probably sell pretty quickly.

Not your fault. Ever since Cardiff went on sale it's been listed as Saturday 11th February, despite it being a Tuesday. And the [16-20] criteria should actually be [under 22s]. I wonder how many 21 year olds have paid the full adult price due to that misinformation.

Farcical as ever. Where's that 'Moan about tickets' thread when you need it?!

Why only 2100 odd when the ground holds nearly 27,000? Entitled to 10%.

That is actually an increase of 300 on what the away allocation was in the Championship.  There is a big hole in the away end, which is presumably where a good couple hundred seats are lost.

I assume they are able to cap it based upon safety grounds.
