Villa Away

[Ekelund24]

Checking the train tickets yesterday if anyone is going in a group of four and is not bothered about getting a direct train, it works out a lot cheaper if you buy your tickets via Basingstoke and Banbury and can get them on the day.

 

Groupsaver 4 Soton - Basingstoke

Normal ticket Basingstoke - Banbury

Groupsaver 4 Banbury - Witton

 

For some reason if you split it via Basingstoke it is a lot cheaper, from Eastleigh the total return cost is £30.50 on the day and if you have a Network Card I think it works out to £25

Got 15.80 return from Andover with a railcard.

Does anyone know if we've taken both tiers for this?

Not much chance of finding out, for a while anyway.

The online system suggests we have both tiers.

£12 return from Euston.

[Sour Mash]

Looks to just be the upper tier on sale now?

Possibly been told to sell upper tier before lower.

[LGTL]

Just went online to get 5 tickets, sod that I'm not sitting in the upper tier. Will ring them tomorrow.

[Ziggy]

The tickets seem a lot more expensive than last season unless my memory is bad. This season I got tickets for me and my lad for £40 at WBA while to go to Villa it will cost £70!

[Berkshire Saint]

Yep, it either was £32 or £35 last season I think. Certainly not as much as £39 anyway.

Stoke only had the upper tier in Sunday.

I thought that, but as they panned to away end after the game there seemed to be a handful scattered in the bottom tier.

40 miles straight down the M6 and free coaches for those that want it. Stoke's away support is poor numbers wise these days.

Working in the city I can tell you that it comes down to one thing. Ticket prices.

Did you speak to the ticket office? What did they say on it?

[LGTL]

Yes I did, Villa have requested we well the upper tier first, approx 1300 tickets. Lower will only be made available if all those are sold. I'm just going to wait.

Cheers, so a bit of a catch 22 at the moment, as we don't sell the tickets as fans are waiting for us to sell the tickets ha.

Was the upper tier sat down last year?

 

Was in the lower and it was stood.

First 5 rows of the upper tier were made to sit down, the rest were left to stand though.

[JRM]

If 1300 is all the upper tier holds you should imagine that will sell out fairly quickly, although that will be impacted by the selling periods and people holding back to get the lower tier preference.

 

i was going to get tickets today buy will wait until Friday and see if the lower tier is on sale then.

Thought it worked well. People who wanted to sit just swapped places.

[Appy]

Lower tier on sale now.

[svetigpung]

This is easter weekend so i guess we should sell out.

 

Shame it was Villa as i was over for this last season. Spent the night in Brum where two murders in the city centre had just been commited. Nice place!

 

Found a fantastic Fullers pub there. The Old Joint Stock. Worth a trip just for that.

The Old Joint Stock is a great pub - I go there often. There are many great pubs in Brum if you know where to go.

Got my tix last wednesday. Only bottom stand on sale. Top stand sold out.

[Sydenhampton]

Action Man,

I can't PM you. Waiting to hear back from a pal as I want to go and was about to buy a lower tier ticket. If he says yes we'd be up for buying your tickets.

Can you perhaps email me at ceegeegee@live.com please?

Cheers.

[Lets B Avenue]

Upper Tier ticket available at face price. If you want it PM me, or let me know on here with an e-mail address and I will put you in touch with the ticket owner.

still 2 available

[jezza]

Just bought 2 tickets in the lower tier, happy days, never been to Villa Park before.

 

Question though guys - I'm not a local Saint (Bedfordshire). The woman on the phone said they'll take the tickets up to Villa Park on the coach. Where do I pick them up from... Villa ticket office?
