Not sure it needs to be that complicated with 37,000 tickets. We won't have long to wait to find out I would have thought anyway.

Every season ticket holder will get one, but they wont wan't 28000 logging on at once so that's why they'll do a priority system.

That seems unlikely. The usual reasoning is that Wembley Stadium station is adjacent to the West End and is a route for close to 10k fans to travel down via. I can only see that changing if we played another team on that Chiltern line.

Looking at last year, there were more tickets allocated in the East end than the West. Considering (with no disrespect to Palace at all), we're likely to sell more tickets, that could be the reason? However, you'd still have thousands of Villa fans traipsing through the Palace end and queuing for the station whilst they egress

It's Palace.  Can't we just chuck them out singing "We're Aston Villa, we'll do what we want"

I'd have preferred the Sunday. Parking's only 3 quid in Uxbridge on Sundays. More than three times that on Saturday

It should be:

STH with 4 then 3 then 2 then 1 FA Cup Game, then STH's, then Members with 4 then 3 then 2 then 1 FA Cup game, then Members with a booking history then Members then Gen Sale with a booking history

If that’s the case I’ll be questioning my decision not to go to any cup games as a member, plenty of league and champions league games…

Unless I am wrong we were in the half to the left of the royal box. I assumed that's that the East side?
