I wonder how many are Liverpool fans though. Remember how stupidly quick our home game with them sold out? The only game to not get past members.

mattyvilla Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 if the seating map is accurate and all tickets have been released only about 1k left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 12, 2020 Moderator Share Posted February 12, 2020 I make it about 1,600 left. I think a few hundred of those will go before Tuesday, so the question will be how many members have been to eight games and how many of those want tickets.

The Fun Factory Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 We have 30,000 season ticket holders so even if everyone has bought a ticket that will still result in over 3,500 left. And probably about 5-10% of ST holders can't or don't want to go so probably be about 5-6,000 will be left to C&B members. Cant see this going to general sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I imagine nearly all ST holders that aren’t going will be pimping out their reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slowandlow Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 in future they should probably strip out the tickets they are giving out internally and to hospo etc from any announcement re: our allocation for general supporters gives an unfair impression of how many tickets are available to the masses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slowandlow Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 people are going to be p1ssed off either way when they do the basic maths - better off being upfront about it in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 At the end of the day at least the league cup and efl play offs are better than the FA Cup final in terms of allocation. They get 28,000 each with the 'football family' awarded tickets. Which then get sold off at inflated prices to either of the finalists supporters.

Delphinho123 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 I'm going to end up in the Man City end for this one. Can pick up a ticket for fairly cheap (£90) on live football tickets. The City end will be littered with Villa fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted February 13, 2020 Author Share Posted February 13, 2020 Wow, circa 3.5k gone to the club off the initial tally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 14, 2020 Moderator Share Posted February 14, 2020 Still around 1300 left and it's stopped moving a bit now. I'd imagine there will be at least a thousand available to the Members-with-eight gang - with 28,000 members and us having played twelve home games, I wonder if 1,000 might actually be enough to see that group through and we might see a handful get to Members-with-five.

Fingers on buzzers chaps! Apparently they still had around 8k left as of this AM and have resulted to giving season ticket holders the option for additional tickets for friends/family. Might be a few sent back if they cant shift the allocation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
