bickster Posted February 11, 2011 Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2011 Simple question for Season Ticket Holders (please don't answer if you aren't but feel free to join in any debate) This topic has been sparked because the General seems under the impression that every ST holder gets the chance Once or Twice a season, some of us think he's been misinformed.

bickster Posted February 11, 2011 Author Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2011 For the record, never had an invite. Personally I wouldn't want one as the lottery system doesn't suit my pre-match routine anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 No longer a season ticket holder, but previously over ten years. Since The Holte has been done up during my time as a season ticket holder I never received one. Nor has anybody else I know who has had a season ticket since it's opened.

markavfc40 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 No never received one and have been a season ticket holder since way before the Holte was refurbished same goes for the two other season ticket holders that I go with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeVilla82 Posted February 11, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted February 11, 2011 I've not had one in the last 4 years. I go to the games with my mum, and she hasn't had one either in the same amount of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_allcott Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I have had a couple of invites, bizarely everyone else from Redditch seemed to be in their as well. Makes me believe they may do it on a postcode basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tismyk Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Didn`t they drop the invites 2 years ago, any season ticket holder can go in, £3 entrance fee i think the same as the Holte Suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briggaman Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I've never got an invite. Three season tickets so far and I haven't even been in the Holte Pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted February 11, 2011 Moderator Share Posted February 11, 2011 Never had an invite. Been in though, after a game, it's a decent pub - more like a City pub, rather than the old fashioned boozer type place it used to be, and the Club were brilliant with my good mate Fear, on his 40th birthday - Des Bremner presented him with a signed shirt, and he got a cake too!

cheltenham_villa Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 i thought theyd dropped the invites. you can pay to go in these days.

DTheVillan Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Having had a season ticket for ever & a day I must admit I was expecting one of the earliest invites.....but alas no & in a childish way I have now pledged to send it back if I got one. Like most clubs Villa do little or nothing to reflect loyalty or longevity of ST ownership......except take us for granted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry'sboots Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Never had an invite but, like some, I thought this scheme had ended and it was pay on the door. I have been in a few times because my wife is an account manager for the Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
