Can we change the title to ‘Don’t panic’?
I’ve never seen such flapping over tickets.
You are mainly local people so have no need to flap.

I don't think it's unreasonable that people are a bit peeved if they spend in excess of an hour waiting online then get kicked out and have to start again.

The club should do better.

It’s because we will easily sell out our allocation of 38k unlike your club.

Unless they're holding tickets back, there's only 246 left in the lower tier compared to a good few thousand early evening yesterday.

I have a bit of a dilemma. My tickets are sorted but I need to buy 2 more for family members. One has been to 6 games and the other has been to 2. They would much rather they sit together than me buying 2 single seats.

Should I buy them individually to at least guarantee one ticket, or should I want until I can buy 2 together when the criteria drops to one match attended, which brings the risk of missing out altogether?

I had the same dilemma.  My dad, brother and I are ST holders.  My girlfriend is 7 months pregnant. She's adamant she's coming to the match. And bring her lad.

I bought our ST ticket seats last night.  And I'll buy my partners on Sunday. Really wanted her to be near by.

I’m a wreck because only have 2 match references due to poor planning on sharing out references. Desperately hoping there are still some left by 1+ on Monday

Considering you said the play off semi wouldn’t sell out, that doesn’t give me too much confidence! 😉

Ignore Ayup. It's just his way of saying it's a dreadful site, but he's still here.

I am angry but now I've slept on it, i can accept that the volume of traffic has contributed to the problems. In previous seasons, they've sold by the stand your ST is in, so the Trinity always had first choice of seats. At least this way, everyone had an equal opportunity even if it was a bit of a lottery whether you got through or not.

I'm in the area i wanted to be in, albeit not as good position as i would have been had I got in 3 hours earlier. Oh well, if we pull it off, all will be forgiven.

With regards to those with 3 games on their references, looking at the wording on the website, I'd say that you're guaranteed a ticket. It's only after your date that it states "subject to availability "

It will reach booking history this season, general sale most likely but I wouldn't say easily.. Probably a lot of folks have gone to 1 or 2 games so maybe a couple of thousand will make gs.

There are loads who've been to 3 games, but I wouldn't mind betting that a large percentage of those haven't put it on their own booking history - therefore they will land in the 'general sale' group.

I'm sure 3+ home will be fine.

I'm gambling on the any home booking history (had a year with loads happen, used tix not allocated to me, live in London and go to more away games, had multiple overseas trips including wedding etc newly wifey had first VP/Holte Exp on Tues, it was rocking eh :P).

As two of our 4 are over £65 and so half price & a bit broke I'm passing on the three club wembley tix I have access to found to be in the Villa end and just come through at the Cat 1 price of only £98.

Tempted, but am keeping my word to Seb in Belgium (Belgium has been good to me over the years)

Will be an anxious wait until Monday evening and I may regret this but prefer to not let someone down. Sorry others those are the only ones I had access to, but thought useful to know the price.

If I fail on Monday I'll be back here begging, but trust in the laws of the universe/good folk of H&V!

Even offering each Fulham ST holder 5 tickets won't fill their allocation.  I'd fully expect us to get some more tickets given to us.

It will if Villa fans are buying them! I know some who have got their 5 already - before we are anywhere near selling out!
