Pre-Season Friendlies

[Dave]

No more friendlies and the Watford game with its own thread means this one probably doesn't need to be stickied anymore.

I still think we'd have sold more tickets by now if the club had publicised it a bit more.

I still think it will be a good turnout, especially if we parade the cup

Under 23's at Tamworth Friday night.  Going to pop down to that.

If I lived a bit closer, the Tamworth game would be of more interest to me than the Watford one

Aston Villa is pleased to announce that fans who travelled to Germany for the game with Arminia Bielefeld can claim a free ticket for the weekend Watford match.

We face the Hornets in the Graham Taylor tribute match on Saturday, kick-off 3pm.

As a gesture from the club, fans who can provide travel documents for their German trip – either flight boarding pass or embarkment documents from a ferry crossing from July 25 onwards - can take up the offer of a free ticket.

Supporters wishing to take up this offer should present these, along with their passport, at the Villa Park ticket office before a 1pm deadline on Saturday to exchange for their complimentary ticket for the weekend game with the Hornets.

We acknowledge the expense fans will have gone to in following the team to Germany and the disappointment from the match being cancelled due to a waterlogged pitch.

Chief Executive Keith Wyness said: "We wanted to acknowledge our supporters who travelled to Germany and were planning on attending the match on Tuesday evening.

"I'm aware many were either en route or preparing to travel and we wanted to say thanks for their unstinting support of the team.”

25th onwards? What about those already in Germany from Sunday who were staying on?

[amfy]

As the 25th was yesterday I guess they mean evidence of trips home too?

[Hookeysmith]

if everyone who was planned to go to the game gets a free tickets then fair play - I know it does not compensate fully for the cost of travel etc but as game was off due to weather they did not have to do anything

That trophy "xp031 explode" is available for £15.00 online 😂

That's 20cm high. It's obvious it was a cheap and cheerful trophy but it cost a chunk more than the prices being mentioned by fans of us and other clubs.

Should have least the ones staying out a blues or burton away ticket

Should have least the ones staying out a blues or burton away ticket

What does that even mean?

I think he means a game where the tickets are hard to come by - so it feels more like compensation

Meant to say they should be offered either a small Heath away or burton away ticket at the very least

 Villa 4-0 up against Tamworth. LiveScore says that Scott Sinclair scored our 4th goal?
