    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    So you are complaining because they've improved the system and you've missed out? As I said I appreciate that you are hard done by but your experience was a casualty of the old system; the new system is a massive step forward from that. The idea of collecting stubs and having ticket office...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    I appreciate you may feel hard done by, but ultimately under the current system you would have had preference for those seasons that you were a season ticket. Of course the club is going to value those that have contributed more recently higher than those that have contributed in the past. I...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    The white membership is as much to provide an audit trail (so the club can prove who they have sold tickets to, if there's any 'strife') as anything else I suspect. But while it's there it allows people to buy (and yes it is buying) the ability to purchase away tickets in advance. I'm afraid you...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    I agree - being any kind of member does not make anyone a bigger fan. But ultimately they contribute more to the club (in financial terms) than other, and what it does make them is more entitled to a ticket for the big away matches. Which is what the system manages to the best of its abilities.

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    That's the best part of the entire thing though. Whatever percentage of money it is that we get (is it 50%) comes from the total attendance anyway, so to the club it makes absolutely no difference whether people are in the home end or the away end. They can't really lose for these big games...

    oh bollocks. Fair enough then, thought it was probably too good to be true!

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    But, in all cases, tickets are available from the ticket office in advance. If you explain that people should book online in advance if they wish the game to count towards their loyalty points, and that anyone paying on the gate will not have the points added to their account, then shirley...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    Yes you do, but as I say, that's the point of the priority system. Do you have a better suggestion? There is absolutely no way in hell, when we could probably sell 8-10k tickets, that you can expect to be able to reserve some tickets just in case the white members you know are lucky enough to...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    Are you serious?? The obvious answer is DON'T. Apply for (and get) your ticket and let your mates fend for themselves. Trying to give you one ticket, and hold onto another for someone who may or may not ultimately get a ticket would be a logistical nightmare when x1000 or however many people...

    4,000 Villa tickets sold so far

    No chance will Villa sell out. They could only garner 25,453 for the 3rd round tie where tickets were £15-20 against Premiership opposition. I'd be surprised if there's more than 30k.
