Season Tickets

[Brazilian Villain]

I remain convinced that we should have identified a site somewhere else and just knocked the whole bloody thing down and started again.

Noooooo, Burn the Heretic!

*Please not another 'Should we move?' debate as it's been done to death on here, and thankfully it's not going to happen.

For the first time ever, looking at a future where it's clear they're going to try and bleed dry every last penny out of those can can actually get in, I might agree with Risso on this.

The new North will be a pleasant place to be, and the facilities top notch. The prices no doubt will be too.

The rest of the ground just needs to be thought out and planned, because service could, and should, be so much better.

Not sure why moving to another site would equate with cheaper prices. If anything they’d want more to help recoup the costs.

After dutifully responding to the email to renew my ST, I got as far as the pre-chackout to be told that our 2 seats of 20+ years have been taken??
When I refreshed the page the following message came up:

'Error: A potentially dangerous Request detected in one of the fields. Please correct the offensive value and try again.'

Reading this, I felt as though I had abseiled down the Trinity stand holding a suspicious package!

How to win friends and influence people... Still no stadium-wide guide to ticket prices on the official site - unless someone knows/can advise where to find?

Where do you sit?  Are you in the new 1888 area (B3, b4 and a bit of B5)?

B5 Row 25... does this mean we're being evicted?   They're both concessionary tickets (old farts, out to graze, but have spent an eye-watering amount following Villa for 60-odd years))
No idea whether there are any alternatives on offer - no general price guide on view. Shabby, in my opinion.

No, but if I'm going to get fleeced anyway then some space-age cheese tunnel shit and room to breathe would at least compensate somewhat

You'll be wanting carpeted floors, a fan-bearer and slippers next.

Your 'caravan' is a Winnebago isn't it?

Sorry but what is 1888?

Because at the moment the facilities in a lot of the ground are atrocious, and at the moment the only solution seems to be to charge extra (for a select few) for what should be standard for everybody, and then leave everybody else with a worse experience. It's all very well them comparing us to the other top clubs in terms of prices, but they're delivering a matchday experience way behind most of them. Man City, Spurs and Arsenal are light years ahead because they're not trying to squeeze slightly better service out of decades old, badly built stands.

Something to do with the League formation I guess?

The experience would be just the same if we had just the same staff.

I honestly don't know if your seat falls in that area, but I saw someone on Twitter say their £752 ticket is now £899 due to being swallowed by the 1888 seating.  Whether there is concessions in that area could also be an issue for you I guess.

edit - looking at a seating plan I'd say there's a chance is 1888.  I'd get onto the ticket office if I was you.

I thought your 1st answer was oK , I was trying to work out how much and what you get for this seating area?

I wasn't aware there was seating being reserved for it too, that makes it worse.
