Been into town ticket office today. Said roughly 4000 left so if you only have 2 or 1 game from this season then should be fine.

Its all in person next week.......You cant book on-line or via the phone

And only from the Villa Village, you can't buy semi-final tickets at the shop in town.

Does that mean just turn up and you can buy one ?

I'm not sure what their motivation is regarding only selling them in person. My mate has a three game reference, but won't be able to physically go down to Villa Park until Friday afternoon, by which time they will have presumably sold out. I'm not sure why they won't let him book one over the phone and collect them at the office on Friday.

If your criteria qualifies, yes.

It's not their motivation it's about getting tickets in your hand. Next week is too late for tickets to be sent to you with guaranteed delivery.

Have you got one yet SV?

I still don't understand the in-person only criteria. According to the Royal Mail website, it costs £6.45 to send a letter guaranteed next-day, special delivery. There must be loads of people who'd rather spend the extra few quid, than have to take a day off work or travel miles. If I hadn't already got mine, it would be a right ball-ache to use up holiday and travel from London and back.

[PeterWithesShin]

It's probably because even items sent Special Delivery get lost. And it's worth remembering they will still probably be selling tickets Weds or even Thurs, so easier to just make it a blanket requirement that it's in person only now.

What's the expectation for getting tickets with only one game booking history?

[PeterWithesShin]

I still think it may hit varied history.

Just saw wozwebs earlier post saying c.4000 tickets left. Reckon it's gonna be close!
