rjw63 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Season ticket holder now for a while, since the 90's I think. But pre-all seater you never needed a season ticket. I always used to pay on the day and stand on the Holte. There were very few all ticket games back then, but I've got stubs from some that were. Quite amusing to see tickets for Olbiyun B-lose and Man Ure at £1.00 each, and Barcelona in '78 at £1.30 :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingsombrero Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Had a season ticket for a couple of years but I am now a Seat Exchange fan. I go if I can grab a couple of cheap seats for me and a mate in the Lower North and when there is a spare season ticket going because a family member/friend can't make a game.

WhenSaturdayComes Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 ST holder in Lower North, with some away games chucked in. Got so disillusioned under Doug, so started stopping away more and more, that i couldent be bothered by the end of DoLS tenancy. But im back in the fold, and here to stay.........and believe it or not, feel quite happy about the direction in which we are heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stato Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 STH and go to about 2/3 of away games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted August 25, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted August 25, 2009 Up to a couple of years ago, I was option 3. These days, somewhere between options 3 and 4. Not quite totally armchair, but less than 4/5 games a season (only one last season). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcTheObsession Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I see quite a few of you stating that you do regularly or at least go to some away games every season. I realise it was £38 a ticket last night at Anfield but did anybody else find it slightly disappointing that we failed to sell out all of our 2,000 allocation?

stato Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I don't personally. I'd be more disappointed if people who'd wanted to / could go couldn't get a ticket. I didn't go last night (can't afford it at the mo) but went last season, which we didn't sell out either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knoppy1987 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I am a regular when university starts. Loughborough is relatively close and I can not justify the prices of coming from Liverpool at the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise it was £38 a ticket last night at Anfield but did anybody else find it slightly disappointing that we failed to sell out all of our 2,000 allocation?I reckon it's the recession having an effect. I think we will see fewer fans travelling away to Premiership matches generally this season. It's a hell of an outlay, increasingly often at inconvenient times to suit the television coverage.

whitsend Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Go when I can these days. Probably attend 7 or 8 home games a season and always try to get an away game in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 A regular. I never seem to find myself in a position to afford a season ticket lately. But I get to 10-12 home games on average, whatever home cup games there are and usually 2 or 3 away trips, although I missed out on that last season. It's hard living on your own on crap money and something has to give. Sometimes it's Villa sometimes it's my mates. But I've just received a massive boost financially (touch wood) so I won't miss too many this year from now, if any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise it was £38 a ticket last night at Anfield but did anybody else find it slightly disappointing that we failed to sell out all of our 2,000 allocation? A little. But it's a long way for a Monday night, it can work out very expensive and there is a recession on. What I find more disappointing is that we didn't sell out or first game of the season, but I'm not in a position to argue really. It might be big headed, but I class myself as a proper fan. Yet I can't afford a season ticket, or I couldn't anyway. So I understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepDish Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I live in Norway, so I can't fly over to watch more than once or twice a year. This year I will try to go to an away match with the supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I can hardly ever go. It just costs too much now and sadly my student loan wont cover it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daft Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Armchair. Live in Sweden and I've never even been to Birmingham. Hope to be able to go this year as I've finally landed a job that makes good money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubby Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 ST and travel to get there. It was Wales last season and is London this season. Away games home and abroad too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
