[Albion] Aston Vanilla tickets

[RM-Taylor]

Teams which take a reduced allocation at Villa Park only get allocated the upper tier blocks.

We’ve put all the lower tier blocks on sale first and then the central block of upper tier. There is block P9 to sell also which is the same size as P10, and also block P11 which is smaller and in the corner.

Question is, why don’t we just put them all on sale straight away?

It's probably not the club's fault, out of their hands, someone else needs to accept responsibility.

Watch out, watch out, Capt.Meme is about.

Strange trajectory on this perfectly reasonable thread. A bit of hypothecated club bashing, but the allocation is eventually revealed as, er, full.

Barber OUT!!!

I'd be astounded if we don't take the full allocation for one of the best stadiums in the division.

You’ve got to be kidding me. Horrible ground, horrible fans, horrible club, horrible area. If PB is taking a reduced allocation, he’s trying to save 1,500 more from an awful experience.

Been there several times, won’t be rushing back.

Not sure what the fuss and speculation is with this one, I was as baffled as many on Liverpool/Norwich but it’s clear this is a 3000 allocation

The 2-1 defeat last time stood out as a class away atmosphere and it’s one of the best stadiums in the UK for me.

Groovy Gang going to this

Wow. You have clearly had a different experience there than me. I would prefer to go to Selhurst Park and that is also one of my least favourite grounds. I am lucky enough to have been to more than 200 grounds worldwide, so I have plenty to compare it against. Each to their own I suppose.

Think your 75% correct. The stadium isn't bad but its all the other crap that comes with it. If you want a drink, stay near New Street and head for the ground as late as poss. Also, nightmare on the trains getting away.

Yes, but it’s still annoying that not all seats go on sale at the start if that’s the case………

No booze in the upper tiers

I was always told as a kid, never trust anyone from Easthill

I have to say, it has proven to be extremely good advice for the last 50 years

So. how many tickets are on sale ? I would guess 3000

Total will be 2900 odd

Remember that from last time, and there’s no way to access the lower from the upper at half-time.

Let's make it easy for you.

I don't think many are questioning the eventual volume of tickets available, more the staggered release for which a decent explanation might be a little slow in coming.

Great stuff I’ve done 372 if you’re comparing experiences but Villa park is widely regarded as one of the best stadiums about

It does seem most on here are more worried about the quality of the concourse, the transport (ever been to the AMEX) when considering a good away day mind so I’m definitely in the minority.

Actually I’ve been to well over 300 including those I’ve just visited without seeing games at but still your 372 is impressive - you need to get out, I mean stay in, more!

But I don’t agree about Villa Park. I’ve been there a lot through family roots and honestly loathe the place. Both my grandfathers supported them, and boy did they go on about this great club that invented football, or similar. Aston is a complete ****hole, the whole place should be knocked down and rebuilt. It’s not necessarily about the 4 sheds that you watch from, but also about the fans who create the atmosphere. They are locked in 1982, genuinely think they are superior to most other clubs and fans as a result, have a fairly hard core of fans who cause as much trouble as many and more than most but get sanctimonious when they get it in return, seem to relish others losing more than their own team winning (were you there the year we didn’t win the title in a game that meant absolutely nothing to them), etc etc. When Dr Tony took them over, he said within 5 years they would be one of the top 6 sides in the WORLD, yes really he said that!

A few Wet Spam coloured seats and a banner saying ‘The Holte End - the 12th man’ doesn’t do it for me I’m afraid. When you are up there, ask them when they last won a trophy? And yet they have an ongoing feud with Newcastle fans about trophies etc FFS.

No surprise we've taken a full allocation. Great support at one of the original football clubs.

Yep, right up there with Notts County and Accrington Stanley
