Have they got 7000 fans?

They seem to have 7,000 Incels on Twitter who troll the Villa hashtag on a daily basis

The tweet also states that NS season ticket holders will be notified in due course what they need to do for wolves. I guess the majority will go where the away fans normally sit.

What’s likelihood of this being on the box? I know there’s some decent games in this round but can sky show more than one game per night- maybe red button? They showed the penalty shootout at OT live after they had already had a live game on that night.

Not sure. They would like to show both the Chelsea/Man U and Liverpool/Arsenal games I'm sure, but with three of those clubs playing the previous Sunday it seems likely that both will have to be on the Wednesday, scuppering said plans.

I don't think they have confirmed the TV games yet, possibly they were waiting for confirmation that Liverpool weren't going to be kicked out.

What a rubbish idea to give them the whole stand. I don't reckon they'll even fill it.

Shove the fuckers in a dark corner with a restricted view and their stupid masks.

Seems Bananas giving that many tickets to our opponents when we don’t need to , as has been stated elsewhere on here if we had to give 4000 we could have given extra blocks in the Doug Ellis. This ranks with when we played Man Utd in the cup and gave them North Stand Lower and Doug Ellis lower . Absolutely Bananas 🍌

Perhaps, for segregation purposes, it is too problematic to divide other stands in such a way.

I'm sure that this is the logical answer but Villa do seem to have a way of over-complicating things when dealing with ticketing

If you look at Stu Bladen (Villa WMP or some such) on twitter, he states that Wolves aren't getting 7k. Seems like the stand is being given to them but not 7k seats in it...

How many seats in the Upper? Maybe they’ll get that and they’ll close the lower?

I could live with that. At least that would reduce the impact they can have on the game. They should at least be made to sell out the upper before they get any tickets in the lower.

Liverpool stiffs vs Arsenal stiffs is the predictable Sky pick for the Wednesday.

At £10 a ticket, it seems such a waste to have 3000 empty seats.  It's a game that would clearly sell out full capacity.

Somehow Villa need to come up with a flexible system that has minimum impact in order to accommodate away cup allocations and also to utilise seats on occasions when normal away allocations are not sold out.

Seems like they are showing that AND Man U v Chelsea on the Wednesday, with no game Tuesday. The fanboy twats. Burton v Leicester is a much better cup tie.
