Bit annoying they've jibbed us for a quid, but hey-ho.

The booking system now appears to have been updated. It gave me an option to 'upload to season ticket' where previously there wasn't one.
System updated but still not working correctly. Mine gives the option to upload but then asks which card to upload to and none are listed (only had a season ticket for 52 yrs)!  Cannot go past that step!

One of my sons doesn't want to go, can I 'upgrade' his child season ticket to a one-off adult ticket?

Yes, when you get to the basket you can amend it to an adult, did that with mine

It’s not very intuitive but touch the yellow box alongside where you tick the selection and you will see a selection the same as you have already selected. Touch on this to populate and then it will let you move on. Worked for me

Yes you can. You just have to pay the difference.

Bielsa's definitely playing mind games now. http://www.espn.co.uk/football/english-league-championship/story/3841899/bielsa-to-pay-leeds-fine-for-failing-to-control-players-in-villa-controversy

I personally hope we don't have to play them again if we make the Final, I've no interest in experiencing all the shithousery again. Here's hoping Derby or Boro or stuff them in the semis.

Hundreds of attempts at buying online, 5 hours on hold and 3 emails later, I've finally managed to get a ticket. About 300-400 left it seems.

I'll be happy playing anyone in the final. Other teams are more scared of us than we are of them.

FTF.

Still can't even get the option to buy one online and not got through on the phones.  Keeps saying coming soon despite me having the right booking credentials.

Beginning to get fed up now with this end of season and born again villa fans. Give me the active fan base we had after the defeat at Brentford this season any day

You mean like the 40k we had the next home game? Or the 'paltry' 35k the home game before Brentford?

I sent an email explaining the issue to the below three email addresses and they eventually fixed whatever the problem was for me.

ticketsales@avfc.co.uk
web.support@avfc.co.uk
postmaster@avfc.co.uk

The email I got back telling me they'd fixed the problem was from support@astonvilla.zohosupport.com so might be worth including that address.

Yes witton. Why not go one step further and let's only have season ticket holders at games? That'll create a great atmosphere for the play off semi, in a half-full VP.

Playing in a ground with only about 20,000 people in it would be good preparation for visiting the Hawthorns, actually.

Something that irks me on this is the fact there's no sale criteria in between ST holders and 3+ games.

I know a fair few people who have attended a fair few games in the last month or so just to get their booking history to 3 for the playoffs.

As someone who's attended a lot of this season, it's frustrating to not be able to be in the Holte End, which sold out in minutes.

Hopefully there'll be another criteria bracket for the final.

My only criteria for being able to buy a ticket stright away was that I took out 'Claret Membership' a while back.
