The if any become available the section they are in will not be greyed out. Dont go back, keep the seat plan page open. You have to have 1) lots of time, 2) be patient and most importantly 3) be quick/lucky if any managers saw my screen at work today i'm in trouble. was literally hitting ctrl+r all day and managed to get one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fruice Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Speaking with the FA today some tickets that had been reserved with the FA which then are not been taken up are then been released back to general sale so worth keeping an eye out for these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 There was one seat in 143 that kept coming and going. Toying with me the little bastard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefdoc2000 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I bought a ticket on the Derby website today using a friends ID for those asking why would you seat in that end, it's not a choice, it's about there there to witness the event, the rise of Villa back to the top and if I have to take off my Villa shirt at 2.45 and put on a white t-shirt to do it then so be it. I would love to get a Villa ticket but I am in Ireland and have only been to a couple of games this year. Last year I walked Wembley way from 11-3 looking for a ticket, I got one at 2.55 it was very stressful, no pre drinking no fun and we fecking lost This year I'll be in the Arch having pints until 2.30 and then into the stadium to quietly enjoy the game! The ticket was 82 (sign!) and included a 1.50 donation to the Derby Ladies team which I do not begrudge them, hoping for some karma back!

I appreciate your points but if villa score how the he will you keep quiet - - espa game of this magnitude! I went to a league game vs Chelsea years ago and sat with my mate as he and his dad are season ticket holders. When trekkers scored it was so difficult to stay quiet. I didnt enjoy it tbh. Enjoy your day regardless though bud 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I can’t imagine many would begrudge Villa fans getting tickets in the Derby end, as long as they stay quiet when (hopefully not ‘if’) we score. The amount of tickets we’ve been given compared to the amount we could sell is pretty pathetic, so I’m sure you won’t be the only one in the Derby end @chefdoc2000. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTV fair play mate...would i rather not go than sit in the derby end? that's a conundrum...keeping quiet would be the easy bit. if you dont celebrate a derby goal youll be rumbled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomIsADeftone Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 See msges over night that tickets were bought again via the website. I guess you really do need time on your hands to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pintpotvilla Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 My tickets came today. They were bought via a re-seller and advertised as Neural ( Club Wembley).. They are in the Derby end!! So much for them having more fans then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I just got a 2nd ticket. I’ve been refreshing the stadium plan for 10-15 minutes constantly at random points throughout the day since I got my other ticket on Monday. So now I’m not going alone, and my cousin can come. We’ll be no opposite sides of the stadium, but still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Lol sorry @omariqy, I kept seeing that wheelchair one in 137 on Monday. Then this morning I briefly saw one in 120-something. But yeah, the one that I’ve just got is in 143, so I must have got the one you were seeing. I’m guessing there are still hundreds of people refreshing the screen to get a ticket. It’s mad that Wembley can just give us another few thousand. They’d prefer the money they get from corporates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stadium plan page or buy tickets page? you need to be on the stadium plan page and keep re-freshing it in the hope one of the sections shows a ticket is available and then be quick and lucky Edited May 23, 2019 by imavillan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 If anyone has a ticket on their own in block 535, and would be willing to swap it (for free) for a top price ticket in block 143, then drop me a DM. I'm going to try to swap this £96 ticket so I can be in the same area as my other ticket in 535. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
