Not many tickets left apart from Upper Trinity so this won't be going to General Sale.

About 2000 left as of 5 minutes ago.
Season ticket holders have until Sunday to secure their seat so those seats won't be showing. There will be a lot more than 2000 left at the moment.

Do they release blocks as other blocks near selling out then?

Season ticket seats will show as sold, regardless of whether the ST holder has actually purchased or not.  On Monday, if any ST holders have not taken up the option of purchasing their own seat, the seat will then become available.

Hardly surprising that it's 12.30.  It's beginning to get on my tits.  Sunday is a complete waste of a day and so will the following Saturday be.  I've got absolutely loads going on at present and time is valuable.  Given there are only 2,000 numpty WBA fans coming and they were quite happy to let us play them on a Friday night, I don't see why it couldn't have been Saturday 5.30?

Sky make the decision.  Not the police and this is not considered a high risk fixture.

So Sky think Villa v WBA is the least attractive of the 2 games?

Derby v Leeds potentially also has a lot of appeal due to spy gate

Sky don't determine matches "A" & "B", the EFL do.  The only team thus far who are cemented in a position are Villa (5th).  I can't see Sky determining games that they don't know who will be competing in.

Unless i'm mistaken, if we win the play-off semi it will be the first we've booked a place at Wembley as the away team. Every other time we've done it home or a neutral ground.

E-ticket option is easy. Even managed to upgrade one ticket from an under 18s.

Being pedantic, we booked a place in the Charity Shield when we were away at Arsenal in 81.

Expecting very little sympathy but as I've attended all of my games this season on the complimentary tickets from a relative of one of our players (tickets that have been snapped up for this one, Not so much the games over december) .... I've got no chance of going.

Have a great day to all of you who are going... The Middlesbrough game last year was very special.

Correct.  And do you know what else?  The atmosphere on the website was absolutely rubbish.

I stood up while I was waiting.

Were you in the singing Block Dave?

Due to being made redundant after 32 years with my employer and various other circumstances this is the first season since my dad took me to villa v Bournemouth in feb 72 that we’ve not been to a single game . As the boys have done so well I wouldn’t even try to get to semi final or Wembley and blow their luck . I’d much rather we just get promoted .

Enjoy all you lucky people... how can Holte be sold out wen it’s only season ticket holder purchasers at the moment  ?
