Delph for one already has Championship experience and has just had the best season of his life for Villa anyway.

The likes of Clark,Westwood, and Lowton (should he get back in the team) would all be good championship players IMO.

And as much as we don't want him right now, Holt should score us around 10 or 12 goals.  Maybe that's why we got him...

Let's shelve the Championship chat folks.  Just imagining midweek games in deepest winter against the likes of Ipswich, Middlesborough and Huddersfield is truly depressing.   

Seconded - starting to sound like that Bluenose on the other thread "it will be great fun going to all those new grounds"

Renewed just now.

I enquired as to whether the away scheme would go up in price given the extra games if we're relegated!

I've just renewed too.  What really sticks in my craw is this booking fee.  £2.00, for what?  It's bollocks, total bollocks, something I informed the sales guy to pass on to the powers that be.

Cant decide whether to renew ......

Very tempted to buy season ticket at Halesowen Town (just promoted) and then pick and choose games at VP

Can also referee more on Saturdays

Have felt like not renewing at this point for last few seasons but this year will ponder ....

Just bought my season ticket. Its been rubbish for so long and renewing felt like buying a  big slice of turd pie but I cannot imagine not being at Villa Park when we are playing so I might as well get the 10% offer.

I tried to renew on line this morning - got on to my account but could not find link to renew my ticket. Then I tried phoning and was in a queue for ages before I gave up.

Went down to VP this afternoon, had to queue and then got charged the £2.

Are they having a collection for staff leaving at end of season?  ;)

I think charging a booking fee on a season ticket is a bit wrong really.

They don't if you pay cash - they tried that scam at the start of the season and after a few of us on here kicked off they backtracked and cash sales are booking fee free.

I know but paying that much money up front and then them saying 'plus a £2 booking fee' just seems a bit cheeky. I know it's not a booking fee as such but, well you know.

To be honest I still think they're taking the piss with the regulations.  The regulations came in to stop businesses overcharging on 'transaction fees'.  The idea was that the whole £2-for-paying-by-card scam would be significantly reduced as the charge should be limited to the actual cost of processing the payment.  The Villa tried to get around this by adding £2 to all forms of payment but then went back to charging £2 for card payments.  I can't believe for one minute it costs that much to process a card payment.

I logged on earlier as I was wavering. It took a while. By the time it took me to access my account and realise I could only renew my season ticket and not purchase one in the same block for my Grandson aswell (with a view to relocating together at a later date), so many negative thoughts about this season re-entered my stream of consciousness that I changed my mind completely about even just renewing mine.
