For the first time in forever, I've just managed to snag one of the last remaining away tickets for Newcastle next week... and then realised it's the fecking late kickoff and my brother is getting married in Bristol the following day. FFS!

With that kickoff time, I'm guessing there are no trains back to Birmingham (post-final whistle) that evening either?

If I were you I'd get booked on a supporters coach. You will be home late but at least you will get to Bristol easily enough on the Sunday.

Season ticket has arrived - seems as though it is just for 1 season as it says 2023 - 2024 on the front of it

I wonder if for the following season we are going to be given a choice of using a season card or an app on your phone to gain entry to the ground

I’m thinking they may introduce something more sophisticated that confirms who you are to stop people passing their season ticket on to others.

Separately, I joined the home cup scheme this year, thinking it would be more convenient given there would likely be a few European games at least. However, I don’t think they’re going to be £10-£20 having seen the match day prices recently so am having second thoughts. Does anyone know if you can opt out online or is it a call to the ticket office? I couldn’t find the option - thanks.

No idea about opting out . Probably be penalised for opting out in a few years like ManUre used to do by banning fans who opted out for the next league game

Membership pack arrived with my water bottle! Just in time for the wettest summer day in years, so back in the cupboard looking for my coffee cup!

Out of interest , has anybody made ANY use of last season's pack? I won't ever throw anything Villa away , even if it's stupid ,to the annoyance of Wilma. I found the oversized badge unwearable and poor design, the keyring again far too big , the best item was the high quality pen which has been used . I'd still prefer my season ticket £5 less though rather than more clutter

I've got about 8 of the Villa metal water bottles. The kids use them at school with their packed lunches.

It's like having Nigel Farage on here sometimes.

Please don't compare me to Nigel, I'm all for freedom of opinion and speech and the way the banks treated him recently was a disgrace BUT I'm totally opposed to most of his views, Brexit and I'm staunch Labour. 

Keep the red flag flying high!

It’s with the Claret membership. I have a season ticket and some weird top up memebwrshio that I don’t remember subscribing to & I got a Villa cubs pack - drawstring bag, stickers, Villa Rubin cube key ring. My husband is a claret member and he got the water bottle - which I have to say I really like!

In answer to Fred - I also only used the pen but when your ST is upwards of £600 then a £5 is neither here nor there and I’m always unreasonably happy with some random Villa tat!

Something useful like a pin badge you'd actually wear without 'part of the pride ' 'fight like lions' emblazoned all over it would be nice .

A free pint on the first home game , would be a nice touch but they probably know the catering couldn't cope .

I wonder if the Terrace View subscribers will get 'I'm with stupid ' T- Shirts

I feel that with the huge increases to our season tickets, my only protest is not signing up for the cup scheme. After all, all the conference league matches will be on tv and, not willing to pay for mix and match teams we will put out for the domestic cups.

It'll be very interesting how they club price conference games , with them all on TV the uptake for the early stages could be poor unless they get the price right.

If I remember rightly in the Lerner era the club done 'packages' for the group games. I think that would be a good idea. 3 Home games for £50 would be acceptable
