There's also nothing to stop an away supporter from buying a Villa membership and buying a ticket that way.
Didn't Man United do something against Galatasaray this season whereby they declared several blocks of home seating as 'hospitality' seats and then sold them to Galatasaray fans, gave them hospitality lanyards and sent them to sit amongst the home fans?I recall seeing a few youtube videos of Man U fans pointing them out and getting very angry. It wasn't just a few away fans, either, there were hundreds of them.

Not really much you can do how do you prove someone is a fan of that respected club. Obviously if they will get banned if found out. But its their money if they want to waste money on a villa membership that will just benefit our club if they dont support villa

I had to do a quiz about PNE to be allowed to get a ticket and obviously failed. I don’t know whether they always do that or whether it was my Midlands accent making them think I was an away fan. I got a mate who was a fan of theirs to book it for me. Nice change to go to a game in the sun and not really give a shit about who won.

Club are only waiting on us to finish 4th. On top of the extra money from the CL, they’ll then think that shafting the fans for another 15% increase in season ticket prices will be more than justified, in their minds anyway.
Unlikely but possible depending on who we draw in the 4 CL matches
