I always found it much easier to get away tickets in the Prem than the Championship.

The North Stand redevelopment/replacement is long overdue, but lets get back to cementing our place back in the Premier League and filling Villa Park every week first.

always this

team and performances come first

You look at the stadium when we have a big waiting list for tickets
It’s ugly though.

Agree with that but maybe because we were rubbish in the prem

Yep. It will be very hard next season to get as many tickets as we did this. PL games are for the most part very well attended now and the away allocation with the exception of some of the bigger stadiums will be quite a bit more limited I'd have thought. We'll take our full allocation everywhere.

Does the club put a limit on ST quantities, to leave some match day availability ?
Wonder if upper trinity will be open every game ?

There were not many left at the early bird ending,so I can not see how they will not open the 3rd tier.

We'll get 40k no problem for first 4-5 home games. Real feelgood factor early on and we'll likely play at least one of the top 6 in that spell (wouldn't it be nice to get Arsenal or Man. United early and try to end that home hoodoo v them?) Wolves will also be 40k.

Think it will then drop off a bit, the usual, winter, Monday night kick offs and we're annually rubbish in December/January.

Good point on the away allocations, anyone know which club gives out the biggest allocation nowadays? In seasons gone by who could always rely on one of Wigan, Blackburn and Bolton to give away their big ends behind the goal if demand was there. Fulham with the neutral stand have gone down aswell.

Just seems it will be 3k for pretty much all grounds if that.

I think we will average close to 40 all season. Heck we averaged 33 in the year we went down.

There seems to be a real appreciation by fans of the journey to get back to the PL. The malaise of the Lerner years and ultimate relegation took a toll on everyone. Dean Smith has brought back the family feeling of this club. Tickets will be much harder to come by which in truth is a wonderful thing.

Agree, we'll be touching 40k every game next season.

I'd be surprised if we dont average 40,000 next season and fully expect us to sell more season tickets than we have before.

The record is only 26,000 and we've sold 20,000 odd prior to the Play Offs.

When you look at those numbers it not hard to see why our idiotic neighbours get into such a frenzied hatred.

My signature was a direct quote from their previous owner.

And they genuinely think they are rivals.

Fools

If we had a ground the size of their dump, we would fill it for every match. How they can claim to be the 'real' Birmingham Club when they sell less tickets than Everton, who are the smaller of two teams in a smaller city is beyond me.

I'm assuming the delay in any announcement is due mainly to the club wrestling with a decision of whether or not to let me have my old seat back upstairs for little or no extra cash as reward for my continued loyalty after being booted out three years ago.

PL teams have to offer 3000 I think, whereas the Championship minimum was only2000.  We reduced our allocation to visiting fans in the championship. I suspect we’ll have to open the corner section agat.

Also, many away grounds in the Championship only give you the 2000 minimum.  For every Preston or Wigan’s, there was an Ipswich or a millwall.

I thought it was down to each club’s discretion how many they offer. It’s certainly not as high as 3k, we only give 2,700 (?) Bournemouth only hold just over 10k, so that would mean almost a third of their stadium would be away fans.

It's 10% or 3,000, whichever is the smaller, unless like us, segregation wouldn't be possible.
