Tickets for our FA Cup final against Arsenal go on sale tomorrow morning to supporters with an 8+ game booking history from this season.

They are available via our ONLINE BOX OFFICE, in person at Villa Park or on the 0800 612 0970 phoneline.

Please be aware, they are not available from the City Centre ticket office.

You will be required to have all your Client Reference details to hand at point-of-sale.

Tickets for the final are expected to sell out on Wednesday, a date when they will be available to fans with a 7+ game booking history this season.

Any extra criteria will be communicated here on Wednesday if there is availability.

The match at Wembley Stadium takes place on Saturday May 30, with a 5.30pm kick-off

I can get mine on Tuesday.

I'm expecting it to be rammed so will be getting down to the ticket office pretty early.

Anybody else thinking of doing the same?

2314 of you ;-)

Could you be a bit more precise [emoji6]

If he keeps playing like this he'll be a shoe in for the Euros next summer. Can see him and Delph both making the squad on current form.

Never thought I'd say it but, come on Tom, do the decent thing and sign with us!

100-1 now in the betting to go down.

This makes me much more comfortable.

Why do so many people rely on bookies' odds to make them feel comfortable about something?

Because they are very rarely wrong! They also show no bias.

Bookies odds are almost entirely based on bias

The bias of the people staking money on things

Well not really! If someone puts £1m on QPR staying up they're odds aren't going to change to 66/1 are they?

Take your point on some odds are related to money staked but relegation odds are a bit different....

This makes me much more comfortable. Think we'll get a draw next weekend and that will seal it.

Hull and Sunland's final games aren't easy at all.

Very impressed. Played it for about an hour so far. Looks amazing and the sound is brilliant. You can really tell the difference in handling between cars as well. Pit crew advice coming through the pad is a nice touch, but not sure if it will get a bit annoying. Sure you can turn it off.

Main plus for me is that all the cars are available from the off, so can start in karts or up in the Formula 1 look-a-likes. Quite refreshing not to have a game that focuses on XP and unlocking cars to move through the game.

Haven't tried online yet.

Think I'll be picking this up for the weekend. Probably chopping DriveClub in.

He was great today, along with all our midfield to be fair.

Couple of times in the first half, I thought he could have taken a shot.

He does look the real deal. Especially seen as that was only his 4th league start. Unbelievable [emoji3]

I think he'll stay another year. Main reason being its the Euro's in 2016 and after missing out on the WC, he'll want to make sure he's settled and scoring goals.

Maybe wishful thinking, but he really does look as if he's loving it at our place

I whacked a fiver on Sunderland to win today so pretty much 20 quid in my pocket now.

They'll have to win at least another game to finish above us, two if we beat West Ham or Burnley so they're going to be excellent odds in 3 of those away to Everton, Arsenal and Chelsea.

Sunderlands last 3 goals - last weeks goal was gifted to them - and today 2 penalties - Hopefully Everton will beat them next week.

Was going to say that Sunderland aren't going to get two penalties every game. Quite honestly, the way we're playing at the moment, I'm not concerned.

Burnley & QPR are gone now, so it's one from 5 now. Got a sneaky feeling that it will be Hull that go.

It's pointless predicting results now as the top of the table is pretty much sorted. Games v the top 4 that ordinarily look like easy wins for them all of a sudden look a bit easier.

Anybody else see the Everton fan in the upper Doug with blue speedo's holding a sign?!?! Couldn't read it from where I was sitting

Mixed emotions about this. We did deserve something but the individual errors are unforgivable. I feel for Brad as he's been decent for us over the past couple of seasons and definitely earned us more pts than he's lost, but, it's time for Given now. You just can not make mistakes like he did today, especially in the situation we're in.

Sanchez was poor again.(apart from the goal) Gave the ball away leading up to the second goal then made a desperate lunge trying to make amends. His passing just isn't good enough.

Grealish & Benteke looked decent together. Could see signs of a partnership developing there.

Think we definitely have enough to get over the line this season.

Also, as others have mentioned, what an embarrassment of an atmosphere that was. I can remember City fans being one of the loudest not so long ago. Now it's as if they turn up and think they're entitled to win the game. Ironic how they don't sell out, yet they're expanding.....

When was the last time we had two midfielders score in a game? Feels like it might have been Taylor and Merson in the 90's!

WBA @ home in the Cup. Delph & Sinclair

Annoying because I've been to all the FA Cup games but only 3 league games. Surely there will be some left for those have 8+ booking history?

Pretty sure there will be. Wouldn't have bothered with the 7+ criteria otherwise

Thought what Reading did was pretty cool.

Not sure on the cost but very effective and lasts the full game

Seems like a big drop to go from ST holders to booking history of 8+ games. Surely 15+ or 12+ would've been better

.

Which is why I think there will be tickets available to 8+ and 7+. I'm thinking that if you fall into either of those categories you should be ok. They wouldn't have bothered with themif there wasn't going to be any tickets left surely?

Had a quote from Circuit Hospitality and it does seem extortionate.

£595 + VAT with no food/drink

How do you go about buying tickets for Club Wembley?

Plenty of overtime and weekend work!

I predict the same criteria as for the semi final, but there will be a new window for people who have purchased a season ticket for next season. Will help Villa drive ST sales

Linkage dude?

Not claiming ITK, Only guessing!

I'm resigned to not getting one for the final unfortunately. Been to 8 games this season including 2 FA cup games. Bloody typical that this is the first season in ages I haven't had a ST [emoji35][emoji35]

Only sales in person from VP. Though they said that on Sunday didn't they....

 

Went in this morning and got one for a mate who lives up north. Don't normally praise the ticket office but it was very good this morning. Plenty of people serving and started selling them just after 8.00 as people were queueing.

I agree the whole ticket criteria has been dragged out. Can only presume that they didn't want to be inundated with ticket requests and spread the criteria out to avoid it.

What a difference to the final game of last season when we went there and pretty much gave up as soon as the game kicked off.

Also got revenge for earlier in the season when they didn't deserve to beat us.

Can enjoy next weekend a bit more now!
