Has anyone received their tickets yet?

Thought they would have arrived by now...

Never any problems with trouble at Wigan away - if it comes down to the final game it could be different...

http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~3155714,00.html

Sold out 3,000 initial allocation.

Doesn't seem too hopeful of another allocation by the sounds of it...?

Getting train at 9:23 from New Street, arrive in Wigan at 10:45.

Can't remember the name of the away pub by the ground, robin something was it?

CONFIRMED - Designated pub 50 years from Stoke train station for Villa fans.

http://www.staffsunion.com/ents/lrv/

£3 shuttle bus to ground from outside

It is being advertised as a price freeze but..

This season the value seats are £295/£100 for adults/kids & next season is £325/£125. Not sure about any other areas of the ground

Not a massive difference obviously but seeing as though its been shown as prices frozen its a bit of false advertising..

Looks good -

Turn right out of Train Station to main road do a left & Terrace is up on left side, only 0.4miles

Any other ideas then?...

Aston Villa WMPolice ‏@WMPVillaFC 5m
#avfc #utv Fans travelling to Stoke pubs happy 2 accept fans by stadium r The Harvester and the Power League, both easy walk 2 ground

Pretty sure Harvester & Power League wont let too many in (especially away)

Train arrives in at 10:45

 

Anyone received their ticket yet for this?

Ordered mine nearly a month ago now...

Had heard Briar Rose in town usually attracts a good few villa but havn't tried it myself before WBA away. Has anyone else? Or any other ideas? Would be good to find out the pub Wedge is on about.

Purchased tickets on 21st December - still not arrived. Rang ticket office & they said they were despatched on the 27th and if they don't arrive by Tuesday to get in touch. Any one else in the same situation? Not sure what use getting in touch on Tuesday will do with the game on the evening?

Only 2865 tickets left now according to the online ticket website - will be biggest turnout this season..wonder how many of those will be utd fans?

Anyone got any recommendations for a pub near the ground?

Nice to see our chief ex. saving all our kitty for January transfer window...

And swansea have only been given an allocation of 2400 - 1800 initial and further 600 as initial batch sold out. So take a further 600 off is 31,781 and whatever you think less than the 2000 in so far for trinity. Looking at 31,000ish atm. Very poor for a Saturday 3pm

Yeah I know it says adult but all away tickets have adult on it, usually has 1 or 2 stubs on the side to differ between adult/kids, thats all I wanted to know-have the adult tickets for newcastle got 1 or 2 stubs on the end.

Cheers

Has anyone got an adult & child ticket?

I ordered 2 adult, 2 kid tickets & they have arrived in the post but look exactly the same - usually the adults has an extra stub on the end etc to show its an adults ticket. It does say adults on it and the barcode on the side but I dont want to get there and they are 4 kids tickets (I am used to seeing the adults having an extra stub/different barcode to a kids), would rather pop down and get them changed at VP before.

Can anyone help?

Cheers
