NulliSecundus Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Are we going to have one for 19/20? I'm not sure we are, don't see much point in having a ST if you miss more than 2 games (in all likelihood). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Seatwave a few years ago wasn't it? I used to pick up tickets days before the game for £10-£15. Was awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Yes I remember in the Lambert days I used to regularly get tickets for £10 in the upper trinity- and then watch us lose. The good old days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we are, don't see much point in having a ST if you miss more than 2 games (in all likelihood). I'm expecting I'll miss more than 2 games. I'm aiming to go to 10-15, but having a 1-year-old, I'm sure there will be some weeks where I decide I'd rather stay home and play with her. What's the alternative? Buy single tickets and then when I feel like I want a season ticket again (which I will in a few years, I'm sure) put myself on a waiting list or hope that Villa still have some available? I'd rather just have a ST, go to most games, and potentially have the option to flog my seat or give it to a mate if I can't go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not! Because of the potentially missed games, I've gone for the cheapest ST in the £370 bracket. I'll miss my Upper Holte seat, but I'll give the Upper North a chance! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May work out more expensive per game but at least it opens the options, much better than the reverse where I find myself free on a Saturday afternoon but can't get a ticket. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I’m unable to buy a season ticket this year but will try and attend as many games as I can. But my eyesight is crap so it’s only worthwhile if have decent seats which are normally taken by season ticket holders. So hopefully theirs a ticket exchange this year.
