Was any of these Blocks available when they went on sale on Friday or do we think they belong to the Club Wembley and people are not taking there tickets for this so these ones have come on the market?

It's Block 119 that I find confusing, don't think that would be part of the Club Wembley with it being so close to the corner and lots of availability in it, while Block 120 is sold out

Anyway, it is what it is whether we like how it's been done or not, hopefully everyone who wants a ticket has got one or can take one of the these extras

Strange one as members who attended one cup match have ended up with best tickets. But I don’t mind as I have mine anyway.

Did you get your tickets Percy? On tenterhooks

'Best' is subjective though. It depends on preference re price, location, likelihood of being able to watch the match sat down etc

To an extent but it’s pretty obvious seats in the lower tier and to the side of the pitch sold very quickly when people were given a choice. It’s also Category 1 of the tickets. So I think it’s more objective than subjective TBH. Anyway it’s done now!

Your right, anywhere is fine for me, I would have got the Cat 1 tickets as I think they would have been better for my 7 year old to be able to to see as I think behind the goal and majority of the upper tier will be stood up

I can’t believe people are moaning about what seat they’ve got. 1000s of Villa fans would give their right arm for the worst seat in the stadium. And the sight lines at Wembley are good wherever you end up.

That's fair, I didn't think from that perspective. For most adults though anywhere is fine really, wembley days out are far more than just your seat.

I attended the Wham cup game but the Villa website won't allow me purchase. Is it because someone else bought the earlier Cup game ticket but assigned it to my member details?

I got exactly what I wanted, & I’d go for the same again today, & even a if I didn’t I’d be happy to be going, I just think it’s odd to get a better choice of seats when you just went to less games.

Go to 3 cup games or have a ST - back end of the roof. One game or less - potentially sit just below the Royal box! There’s nothing wrong with commenting that is arse backwards!

No fun if we can't have a little moan whilst actually being over the moon to have a ticket :)

Not great to be up in the gods though. Spoil it for me in 2015. Thankfully I have a better seat this time.

As for reading the room. If you don’t like reading other people’s thoughts if they differ to yours (and I don’t think anyone was really moaning) then maybe a forum isn’t for you?
