So an indoor arena, The Crucible, gets a full house on Sunday, we get a 25% crowd.
Joke.

So thats a one-in-three chance of tickets - assuming all ST holders apply, which they won't. Not bad odds.

Has anyone received the e mail invite yet?

No. But I have entered. Just log in to your account and you can do it that way.

Not sure how I'll fair, as all 3 of our seats are in my Son's name, I just suppose he enters both tickets but no my Granddaughter who is under 14 and therefore can't enter.
I'm not that bothered really 10k in Villa Park will still be like a morgue

He should be able to buy 3 tickets and assign them to the others , which is what I did.

My son and nephew are linked to my account so whenever I buy any tickets I can assign them to their name.

We are in the draw, my lad is saying it's £50 a ticket??

It's a category A game so £32 - £50 is the price range. I have about £75 in credit from the season ticket refund so I will use that to pay for my tickets.

That's top price.
There is a range. No idea what they relate to seat wise
Doesn't explain. Which is pretty useless, unless I have missed it.

 

[Silhillvilla]

They emailed me inviting me to enter the ballot, no idea why as i'm not a current ST holder

I think it's a case of wait to see if you get drawn out of the ballot before you start choosing where to sit.

That sounds about right with my lad, although he's assuming we'd be somewhere near our normal seats I expect and we could be anywhere

I have just had an e-mail from the Theatre Royal Plymouth, who recommence the same week as this fixture, and it states "all seats are available to book".
Why the restriction on football, an outdoor sport.

Not actually sure why they have done bloody categories tbh. Seems over complicated. Enter ballot, get drawn out of ballot, choose category .....
Presumably there will be an online bun fight to grab the category you want and some will be faced with only being able to get 50 quid ticket when they wanted the 27 quid ones.
Sigh.
One game . Just do the ballot , one price , luck of the draw what seats you get (factoring in disability requirements where required ). Who would seriously complain at that . I am not remotely bothered being lumbered with a shite seat in a fair ballot . I knew the rules etc.

Cock up to match the Liverpool league cup fiasco. Please rethink this Villa.

I’ve never won a bloody raffle in my life so I doubt this will be any different but just the thought of a chance of finally returning to our second home has given both myself and Langoe junior a bit of a warm glow this evening.....!
