Paddywhack Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Not renewing after 10 consecutive seasons. Nothing to do with the Villa and decided before promotion was lost, it's just down to a few other circumstances. I am half looking forward to a bit of a break from it though to be honest. I'm going to be picking and choosing games this season instead and will probably renew again in a few years time. I'm delighted I won't be sitting next to the miserable, abusive arsehole who has been there for a couple of seasons (not you @Rob182 , the other side of me). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’m looking forward to the prospect of going to a few games, wherever in the ground we want, than knowing I have to go to every game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted June 4, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 4, 2018 More likely to renew now that we're staying in the Championship. But still looking unlikely this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Will be there every game rain and snow again. It is going to personally be a more muted, less excited me than last season, but I am sure once we win our first game I will be buzzing again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Sold 17k so far. They have been off sale for the last few weeks. Will be around 20k again I should think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Why would remove season tickets from sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 40 minutes ago, Kingman said: Why would remove season tickets from sale? They had a window before it closed with a price freeze from last season. This was before we lost in the play off final so people could have gambled on a season ticket and then get to chance to see the big boys back at Villa Park. However that did not happen so I expect the club to carry out a very minimal price lift from last year and try to flog a few more season tickets for anyone who wants to watch worse football for more money.

mikeyp102 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Renewed months ago. What else am I meant to do on a Saturday afternoon? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I would have probably renewed for the tenth year (@Paddywhack has one more year on me ) had it not been for buying a new house and having my first baby. I’m sure I’ll get a season ticket again, maybe in 3 or 4 years, with a renewed sense of optimism and hope! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted June 5, 2018 Moderator Share Posted June 5, 2018 For those like myself that have already renewed, is our money and ticket 'safe' in the current scenario. If we go into administration could these tickets be annulled or similar? Does anyone know how that works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go into administration could these tickets be annulled or similar? Does anyone know how that works? If you paid by credit card you have section 75 protection, your card provider is equally liable so they would refund you. If you paid by debit card, and administrators come in, and they decide to continue the business, they're not going to just cancel the tickets if we're still playing games. If they decide to just wind it up, they'd flog off all the assets and try to pay off any debts they can. In that case ticket holders could apply to be added to the list of creditors. You might get a fraction of your money back. Let's hope it doesn't come to that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted June 6, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2018 I've decided not to renew. Will still go to games when it's convenient, but a having a season ticket is just too inconvenient for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two years, I've been to about 80% of the home games, but didn't buy a season ticket as I wasn't sure if I would be staying near the Birmingham area. This proved very expensive! Now it looks like work will be here for at least one more year, so I'm getting one. UTV! Well, a bit embarrassing going back on a post that had 11 likes, but since I hadn't got around to making the purchase, and it seems to be significantly less than certain whether there will be a team to watch, but this is being shelved indefinitely. What an abysmal day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMcKenna Posted June 7, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 7, 2018 I have had a couple of corporate season tickets through my business for quite a few years. My account manager has been chasing me to renew, so yesterday I asked her to let me know today what assurances I would have that the money would be safe or the tickets valid in the event of the club going into administration. She didn’t respond today as promised. I am assuming that as yet, they can give no such assurances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
