Small number of returns available for anyone with 12+ aways

I asked Julian if he knows of any spares and he said no as well, used his coach a couple of times before. Overall I’m not too fussed if I don’t go as I’ll be there for the big one next Tuesday (And wembley if we get there), bit of money saved and can do something else with my Saturday until the game’s on.

Definitely reads a bit sarcastic. I have spent money on Villa away games, 6 of them this season as said before. Money is not the issue, time is.

Is this the person who doesn’t have a home season ticket trying to take the p*ss? Don’t dare question my commitment. I’d rather go to other countries and experience other cultures than spend all my money on villa, there are other things in life to enjoy. Have a look through my posts and see where I’ve moaned about not getting a ticket, you won’t find one. I’ve moaned about the p*ss poor allocation but not the fact I can’t get a ticket, quite happy to watch it on tv in the pub and I’ll look forward to taking my usual seat next Tuesday for the home leg.

That is true and I agree the system is fair, but when you have to work on said cold October night then you can’t go. Like I said some people have other commitments or restraints.

If it makes anyone feel any better then we have only allocated them 2,000. Not sure why both clubs couldn’t agree on more ??‍♂️ But on the other hand it means both clubs can have more home fans in which will only help us next Tuesday I guess. Added up all the games I’ve been to this season... 31 (So far) which is Villa home & away plus matches abroad in Germany, Poland, Netherlands and Spain. Not bad for those of us who can’t be arsed.

I think saying ‘can’t be arsed to go rest of away games’ is unfair. Like I said, I’ve been to 6 and to me that’s a good number including home games. Unrelated to Villa but I travel abroad to watch games through the season too (El Clasico on Sunday for example) as I love football in general as well as the Villa, so that along with work and other things means I can’t go to every away game. Then you have people who can’t afford it, family commitments etc. the list goes on. All that said I know there are fans that simply just want to go the very big games like blues home & away, the potential trip to Wembley and so on (I know because I’ve received messages regarding tickets myself). Overall yes, if you’ve been to 15+ and you get a tickets it’s fair but to say some people can’t be arsed is unfair.

Join the queue!

They never fill their ground usually ?

Have got absolutely loads from a variety of clubs and matches, I have the programme from the 2002 champions league final for example even though I wasn’t there. Don’t buy them anymore as I feel they’re too expensive and they’re practically like small books so take up too much room. I’d probably only buy one if we got to a final or maybe once we’re back in Europe. Maybe they should do what some teams abroad do, condense them down and make them free.

Just to add to that, I’m in Barcelona and got a ticket for the clasico easier than our play off ?

Just seen the criteria and allocation... 2,000?! Give me a break! Don’t care what the rules are that’s a joke. Anyway, me and my mate have been to 6 this season and if there’s 2 spares going we’ll take them. Thanks in advance.

The new kit is to be designed by LUKE and manufactured by Fanatics. Local fashion brand (Might’ve seen the shop in the bullring) who’s owner is a villa fan, will certainly be unique to us.

Rumour is we’ll be doing the kits in house similar to what Bristol do.

According to the OS we’ve parted ways with Under Armour 2 years into a 5 year deal. Disappointing as I liked their stuff especially when put next to the macron stuff previously! Personally I hope for Adidas next as we’ve never had them and it’s just synonymous with football. Second choice would be New Balance, like what I’ve seen of their kits.
