Does anyone know how to find out your current position in the season ticket waiting list queue? Is there a "live" status like when you're online waiting to buy tickets to an event and you see you're no# 9,117 in the queue with the little man slowly walking along the progress bar?

No live update.  As per the list T&C's they contact once a season.  Last email i had was 24/4/23, just as last seasons renewal period began.  They've only communicated to the FAB that they wont offer new tickets this season.  Nothing mentioned on the ST info they released yesterday.  I suspect once the renewals are sorted, they'll put a note out saying all sold out, no new tickets this year.  Then offer the memberships again, and the rumoured tier system for those on the list.  Comms is poor all round though.

It looks like they've closed the waiting list now too for new applications.  The link to join has been missing for a couple of months, but they've just changed the wording on it.  I wonder if they'll ever re-open it? or is it the beginning of the end of STs as we know it

With the nature of this summers redevelopments (and quite possibly next summers developments) I think it's unlikely there will be very much movement in the queue for the next couple of years.

 

The last waiting list update from Apr 23, before ST went on for renewal last year, i was 507.  Pretty much near the front.  With standard turnover of non-renewals i was expecting to finally be offered one,  But it wasnt the case.  Never heard off the club, contacted them and was told those eligible on the list had been contacted.  Be interesting to know where we all sit on the list now, and how many were actually available to the list last year.  I suspect, like they're doing this year according to the FAB minutes, they took them in-house and thats what was used for the Terrace View STs.  

I also noticed a couple of months ago, you cant actually join the waiting list anymore.   The page on the website is still there, and asks you to click a link to join the list, but the link isnt there.  Still not there now.  Looks like they've closed it for now

A quick note to say I'm liking the new website and have just downloaded the new official Villa iphone app. Although its been a long time coming, I must say I am very impressed indeed. Essentially a scaled down version of the OS, with direct links to tickets and the online shop aswell. Easy to use and navigate, which is just as an app should be. Just a massive pat on the back and a doth of the cap to those involved.
