MMFy Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I've heard that we've only sold 20,000 season tickets this season. Not good news if true. Disagrees with the opening post. Have thousands of people sent back their season tickets? Looks like trolling to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolteEndRob Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Apparently we have smashed through the 20k mark according to James Nursey. Mat Kendrick said exactly the same as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 A big signing or two usually gets fans down to Villa Park. That's always been the case with our club. 20k sounds about right. If we make a big signing it'll increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam_ Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I've heard that we've only sold 20,000 season tickets this season. Not good news if true. And why would that be so bad? That's still more than Wigan & QPR & maybe a few others average attendance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the club act like one who is just happy to survive in the premier league, then they can't complain if hey see attendances to match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8pints Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 A lot of people I've spoken to are 'seeing how we get on and waiting to see if they'll get a half-season ticket'. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won the last one I don't know, fair play to them, they seem to have a good fanbase from the past few seasons. I'm not sure on our numbers, I know there was a short boom due to Lambert. I hope it's around that area or higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon if we'd have beaten Wet Spam it would have been higher, and I can imagine the number will drop again because we got spanked by Everton.

Also in regards to putting stickers on my seat, I enjoy doing it :3 and how does your cousin steal yours!? I should have that as my signature Yeah, 36k isn't too bad. You'd hope numbers wouldn't be effected by anything for the first home game but ultimately they always seem to be. It's a shame Given spooned Fellani's' header in and Weimann hit the post because then we'd have had a hard fought 2-2 comeback glory on our hands to anyone who wasn't at the game and they would have come flocking back But never mind, can't live on what ifs. I've seen a few people stick them on He just pinches it out of my welcome box or whatever it's called and puts it on his chair at Nursery. Doesn't even go to the games himself, although he's only four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
