Lower Holte would have been a healthy compromise. That said, I had a ST above the dugout under O'Neill and it was enjoyable. Listening to him, watching him gestate. I learned a lot about football watching from there too, great view. Really? Joke... joke.... just a joke I assume you mainly heard O'Neill discussing the merits of putting on a midfielder at RB when we weren't winning? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevonIsAPlaceOnEarth Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Today I renewed for my 9th season. Wasn't such a dilemma this season. Think the club is being well ran, and have the right ingredients for a memorable season next year. I was positive in Lerner's early years, but this somehow feels different under Tony.

There are some blokes who sit near me who are so unbelievably negative and moany that it gets right on my tits. It's probably the same everywhere. They sit on my row, so maybe you're buying their tickets Just as a matter of interest.......What is your Bra size Edited April 8, 2017 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted April 8, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted April 8, 2017 I'm renewed but then I will always renew whatever. Wouldn't have a clue what to do at weekends. Close season does my head in as it is. I look forward fervently to Wimbledon, not because I like tennis, it's dull as dishwater, but because Wimbledon means the new season is just around the corner.

S-Platt Posted April 8, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted April 8, 2017 I am back after a 3 year absence. Family ticket for £644 2 adults 2 kids so £14 a game for father and son is amazing value I am amazed we never advertised this more. A colleague at work took up the same offer so that's 8 extra from last season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for being thick but, what happens if you don't renew before this early bird deadline? Does the price freeze no longer stand? I'll be renewing but not sure when and whether I want to move seats or not. From the previous page: The club sent the following on the bottom of an e-mail I received on 23/2: "To clarify and in response to a number of comments from Season Ticket Holders, supporters that renewed their 2016/17 season ticket before 31st May 2016 will have their price frozen beyond the Early Bird deadline of 7th April 2017 and will remain frozen until the first home league game of the 2017/18 season in August (date to be confirmed). Your existing seat will be held until 5pm on Friday 9th June. We will continue to monitor feedback and act accordingly". So it all depends on when you renewed last year. Hope that helps.

A friend of mind didn't renew last year after being so brow beaten but he's told me he's coming back next season. He was previously a season ticket holder for 20 years or so.

The Fun Factory Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 After a bit of consideration I decided to renew. Overall the home record was decent and actually with the Villa cash it was cheaper this season than the last. Averages to less than £14 a game. The evening matches are a bit of a pain to get to but even If I miss a few it still will be cheaper than buying every game. If we don't go up then I may not renew for 18/19 as looking at the prices It will probably be at least another £30 more for the same product (efl).

Guest av1 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Quick question, I'm probably just being dumb, but here goes. I brought me and my lad a season ticket a couple of months ago now. The seats are at the top of the Holte, an area i don't want to be, but the lady convinced me to buy them in order to take advantage of the 9 months interest free credit, and said i could relocate on the 1st of june. Now we ended up sitting in the Witton lane stand for the blues match and my boy loved it so wants to sit there. I've noticed that the prices have increased since i brought our tickets (presumably an early bird offer?) So if i relocate, do i pay the increased prices? Or the price the seats were at the time i purchased them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems odd they didn't encourage you to buy in the stand you wanted to sit in and then relocate, i.e. people buy tickets in the stand they want then might just move blocks within that area, normally not altering the price. But that's kind of irrelevant for you now I suppose! I imagine, and it's just a guess, that they'll honour the price you paid on purchase but how that'll effect your direct debit I'm not entirely sure (you've already paid two installments I think). They might just ask you to pay the increase in one go so not to impact on the finance you've arranged through Zebra. But the only way to be sure in this instance will be to phone them - be interesting to note what they say. Out of interest what's the difference in price between top of Holte to Witton/DE both now and then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But tickets for the Holte sold out so quickly for sha game that we ended up in the witton, and my lad loved it. Off the top of my head, for k7 i think it was £420 for me and £69 formy lad. Now, its £450 for an adult and £79 for an under 16. So not a massive saving but a saving none the less. Current witton prices are £530 for an adult, £175 for under 16's. Not sure how much they were with early bird offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 @jackbauer24 the finance stays the same. And increase would need to be paid upfront at the time i relocated. I was just wondering if i paid the early bird price or the current prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who bought last year before x date are guaranteed the early bird prices til the first game of the season so they are full setup to approve those prices still. But no one on here is likely to be able to give you a definitive answer so a call is likely to solve it. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Managed to find a comparison. So if i relocate to m5 of the witton (3rd column in) I'm entitled to the early bird prices, an adult and u16 would be £665. At current prices it would be £705.
