So Adams and his drinking mate sit in the pub and decide "hey, lets go buy Aston Villa" and then go to city money men and say "hey, we want to buy Villa but we got no money so will you give us some ?". How does this get column space ..... its a load of tosh !!! #nostory

The 2015 FA Cup Final between Arsenal and Aston Villa at Wembley Stadium will kick-off at 5.30pm on Saturday 30 May, with both clubs receiving allocations of 25,000 tickets. It’s anticipated that a high percentage of Aston Villa supporters will be travelling into London via Wembley Stadium Station so the club will keep the West end of the stadium, their home for the 2-1 Semi-Final win over Liverpool last Sunday. Arsenal fans will be situated in the East section of the stadium and their team will wear their away kit of yellow and blue, after Villa won the coin toss to wear their home colours of claret and blue. Both BBC One and BT Sport 1 will broadcast The FA Cup Final live, while tickets across four different prices will be sold by both clubs - £50, £70, £90 and £120.

Paid for two last Wednesday and still haven't arrived. Spoke to ticket office this afternoon and she said they were sending most out today and tomorrow and not to panic !!!

..... or you can't get a ticket because you can't be bothered to make that a priority ? Seriously, strikes me some folks want to get a ticket without doing anything. If you REALLY want a ticket then it is not that difficult ..... just needs a little effort !!! That is ridiculous you expect him to go all the way up to birmingham just for a ticket? YES !!!!!!!!!!!

I paid more and travelled 200 miles because I wanted to be there ...... I could have found plenty of excuses not to do it !!! This is Wembley !!!

1-0 Villa (Gerrard OG 91+4)

Ordered mine Wednesday and was told it was being posted "Special Delivery today" ..... hasn't turned up yet !!!

Don't be too influenced by the online stadium plan as it changes colours all the time. I think they make available blocks each day but keep others blocked off. They've always said that a certain number of tickets and blocks were being held back to the "second round" of criteria.

^^^ THIS ^^^ That's all it was - good tactical change by a smart coach who I hope will be at Villa next season with Timothy !

Got mine this morning - asked for lower tier and he said they have all gone except the odd single seat. He said only Upper Tier left now !

The club should be filling the ground for this one, not for commercial reasons but to actually help the team in a massive game. As such, they should be virtually giving tickets away instead of charging a fortune ..... unbelievably clueless !!!

Should have been a draw. We matched a decent Swansea side and didn't play all that badly to my eyes.

I'd take a draw !

From the Gooners site ............. "We are due to receive an allocation of 31,799 tickets priced at £63 (extremely limited), £53, £43 and £33 (limited). Concessions will be available to Juniors 16 years and under and Senior Citizens over 65 at a £10 discount off the advertised price. Booking fees will apply."

I wait until it appears in the main "Football Forum" and assumed that threads for future games only open once you get within a a couple of weeks of the fixture. No big deal for regulation games but a big one like this I would have expected to see in the main forum straight after the QF game as it was obviously going to get lively pretty quickly. Thanks for enlightening me anyway !!!

I can't see why you'd need "endless navigation" to click the VT logo, then scroll down and click FACSF in the "Season 2014/5" section. On the mobile skin there's one extra click to open "Season 2014/5". Agree that the navigation is pretty awful ..... it took me weeks to find this thread after being repeatedly told it was in the "Match Forum" and figuring I was the only person on the planet who couldn't see the "Match Forum". Can we not simply have a "Match Forum" in the main navigation menu ? And which match forum would that be? We have a match forum for each match. This is the sixth season we've done it this way. I don't understand how you can have missed it before. There was a link to this tread in the "Villa Talk" forum, but that might have expired by now. "Anyway this should be in the ticket thread in the match forum." Sorry - I took your post literally and couldn't find a "match forum" but now I know where you meant !
