Strange one as members who attended one cup match have ended up with best tickets. But I don’t mind as I have mine anyway.

I attended the Wham cup game but the Villa website won't allow me purchase. Is it because someone else bought the earlier Cup game ticket but assigned it to my member details?

Members with one cup game tomorrow mate.

A mate of mine has had a season ticket for 40+ years. Been to all the FA Cup games. Has mobility issues although not in a wheelchair. Hung on till Wednesday because he has to go with his son, who hadn’t attended cup games. Ended up in the high upper tiers. Not ideal for him. I told him about the late appearance of these lower tier tickets. He got in touch with the club, and regardless of the merits of the way this ticket allocation process has been handled, poorly in my opinion, the club allowed him to transfer to a lower level. Some credit for the club there for showing some compassion to a loyal fan, who isn’t as physically able as he was .

Tbh, long as you're there who cares really.

Your right, anywhere is fine for me, I would have got the Cat 1 tickets as I think they would have been better for my 7 year old to be able to to see as I think behind the goal and majority of the upper tier will be stood up


That's fair, I didn't think from that perspective. For most adults though anywhere is fine really, wembley days out are far more than just your seat.

Not great to be up in the gods though. Spoil it for me in 2015. Thankfully I have a better seat this time.

As for reading the room. If you don’t like reading other people’s thoughts if they differ to yours (and I don’t think anyone was really moaning) then maybe a forum isn’t for you?

You should be grateful considering our performance that day!

This makes good reading for anyone who thinks the club has lost its soul.

Well done Aston Villa and thank you for sharing this.

It's good that they have swapped it for him, it will definitely enhance the experience if he struggles with mobility, well done at the ticket office, show's that they aren't just robots

Having only made a couple of cup games I'll be in the queue at 9am desperately trying to get a ticket. Is it still correct that there is about 1000 left?

I didn’t count them all but that was my sense of it yesterday. A few more seemed to appear today though - behind the goal! So who knows what will be there in the morning.

You know that but when you have to re-assign your ticket to someone else because it’s more than you’re allowed and you have to assign them to someone eligible?

Does that have to be someone in your group or can it be anyone as long as you have their reference?

Just wondering whether a few of us could help tomorrow for some on here that are trying for the tickets that are left?

Think they have to be in your friends and family list. As it’s only those people that appear in your dropdown.
