I too have had an email.
My understanding, from the little snippets in the planning documents and drawings, is that for most of us it will just be an increase in the row number, as they add 3-4 rows as the lower and middle are joined together.
The gangways will potentially be to/from the street level exits at the lower, with the middle exits removed and covered with extra seats. So any one in the Trinity Middle in line with the lower exits might have to move.
Also any one in the corner in front of the big screen / McGregor's Lounge will have to move to accommodate the new corner pavilion.

With so much going on I’ve not really managed to stay on top of this.
Had the “we are writing to inform you that the seats you currently occupy will be unavailable for the 2026/27 season” 4pm yesterday.

Obviously a tricky process for the club to manage so will try not to be overly dramatic & give it the “First they came for the Communists”

So we are family zone next to the tunnel, back of the lowest tier, it being about the best for kids to be close to the action/players coming and going, but not a worms eye view.
Not particularly happy we have to move.

Questions I’ll try and ask the club but any one any ideas?

Of the options offered, the drastic pausing for a year then offers not going back, but instead a North Stand seat,

1) this suggests ‘our’ seats are gone for good?

2) I know the tunnel was proposed to be moved, is this confirmed?

Being able to take our cheapest Zone 4 seats to Zones 3 or 2 at no extra cost is a small compensation but
3) the season after presumably they’ll then hit us for any cost increase and then we have to go back through the same reallocation lottery to try to get decent cheapest zone 4 seats?

Lots more questions I imagine but that’ll do for starters…

One thing I will say Villa have done right is the lengthy initial renewal window for season tickets. At least it gives me time to clear off the credit card before it gets another hammering.

Don't you use the clubs interest free credit option?

Has anyone in the central Lower Trinity (C4, C5) received an email from Villa about the new seating layout ?

I've tried getting info via AVFC Support on xTwit, but can't get a straight answer.

I'm hoping that the lack of communication means we're not being moved but...y'know....it's the Villa   ::)

I'd guess that as some of us TRers have been told we are moving, then if you haven't been then you'll be ok.

**Sorry, quoted wrong post***

At this stage, as I don't really know where I'm being moved to, or if in reality I am being moved, I'm pretty relaxed about it as we we all know seat configoration changes will get some more seats available in what will be a difficult year for the club with the NS going.

Of course I reserve the right to moan like fuck if Im moved somewhere I don't like.

They have added rows and rejigged the layout (not published yet) so you will have different seat number/row, but be broadly in the same location. That’s all we know

Just trying to find out which sections we know are affected so far

Presumably not the section you're in, or they would have told you? You'd hope so, anyway...

On a side note, me dad has to move from the North for the season. He ideally wants somewhere people aren't going to be standing up in front of him all game as he isn't the most mobile. I have told him avoid the Lower Holte. Guessing anywhere other than lower tiers should be okay?

Central LTR would be a good location. Apart from goal celebrations, we tend to frown upon people standing up

It's also mostly free of singing/chanting, although it is a hotbed of sarcasm and bad puns relating to players' names (oh, how we miss Moritz Volz)

We tend to remain seated in the Upper Trinity for the most part

There are hundreds of new seats in the Trinity, so be quick when the window opens.

Yep, those who are quick may get themselves excellent seats.
