The Elmhurst Pub, N17 6XE and The Irish Centre, N17 8DX both accept away fans but get very busy quickly.

Wetherspoons job then. Should be arriving at 12

Received match tickets but no coach tickets yet - anyone the same?

So Oyster bar or bars in Altrincham... Anyone tried the Wetherspoons down the road from Picadilly train station?

Where you all thinking of drinking before/after the game?

Bought 7 tickets this morning, looking forward to it!! Would have thought we would sell it out even tho it is early KO and on TV

Usually 5 weeks before the game. Saturday 7th December - I would imagine details will be released end of October and go on sale Friday 1st November.

Anyone still waiting for theirs?

Sounds too good to be true personally, but on the online ticket office, ST's shown available as.... Doug Ellis – 109 seats available Uppper – 37 Lower - 72 Holte – 1394 seats available Upper – 1098 Lower – 296 Trinity - 555 seats available Upper – 418 Middle – 129 Lower – 8 North - 598 seats available Upper – 415 Lower – 183 Total = 2656 seats available to purchase online (Not sure if they have had to remove the seats where tickets have been bought for Liverpool/Newcastle game as the ST would not be able to use their seat for that game?)

Had today's post and still nothing

Still not arrived anyone the same?

Hi mate I had the same thing As the ST's are sold online through a 3rd party company (ticketmaster) villa want proof of who's purchasing, so a adult can't buy a u16 and use that etc they just need proof the user is genuine. I took the ID's for 5 ST's into the office but the email I got said I could email a photocopy of the ID too, they can't release your ticket until this is done.

Still not received mine, anyone else still waiting?

Where do you sit mate, wondering if they are sending them out in stands ?

No allocation mentioned - last year we took approx. 1500, imagine will be more for 1st game away.

No dont think so actually..hanging on for Mallorca I imagine

What are your thoughts on who will make the 25 man squad out of the current villa squad for next season including new signings made up until now. How many players do you think it now leaves to sign? I would expect: Goalkeepers Guzan Siegrist/Steer Defenders Luna Okore Vlaar Clark Bennett Baker Lowton Midfielders Bacuna Tonev El Ahmadi N’Zogbia Westwood Delph Sylla Herd/Grealish Gardner/Bannan Carruthers/Albrighton Strikers Helenius Agbonlahor Benteke Bowery Weimann Leaving 1 remaining place ... unless others leave above - 1 CAM - Belhada/Kiyotake

Means no game from 24th August - 14th September...

Aston Villa agree a fee for FC Groningen's Leandro Bacuna (via @voetbalzonenl ) #avfc #eredivisie

Train arrives in at 10:40.. Not sure many pubs will be open & serving at that time so may start at the top at Wetherspoons Moon under the water & make our way down as the day progresses... Top of Wallgate to Train Station at bottom is... Wetherspoons (Moon Under Water) The Raven Little Fifteen Last orders Lime Bar The Berkley Clarence Hotel Reflex The Venue

Wigan away information: There are no designated home and away pubs. Most popular with away fans are The Red Robin & Marquee Bar.Both of those are close to the stadium. In the town centre there is the Wetherspoons Moon under the Water or Camra pub The Anvil. Both are located close to the train station. There is lots of parking available at the stadium £5 per car, £10 per minibus, £20 coach. What's everyones pub plan then?..

I heard 800 more tickets have been released (500 initial waiting list & 300 to go on sale tomorrow am) but apparently 1500 we have been given?...http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1rka7pf

What pub/s are you looking to head to before the game? Thinking of Red Robin just next to ground...any other ideas?

Hello Dominic. Quick update for you (which you may know already?). A few fans have been in touch with a company called Maskarade based in Coventry. They have very kindly agreed to print 3,000 Petrov masks free of charge for fans attending the Wigan game. A group of fans will be putting these on seats before the game.
