rammieib Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 @Gritters Leeds, Wednesday and then us. Shame. £30 is still high but we fleeced them for £36 so I'm surprised it's not higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 The online tool to select your seat is great....until you realise only block Q2 seems to be available. The upper tier is not available to select and it wasn't clear to me whether the picture of block Q2 showed blocks Q1 and Q3. Anyone else slightly confused?

I got mine no problem but also thought that it was strange that I could only select from 1 block out of the 6 that we have been given. I wanted to sit in upper tier but had to make do with lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Same for us! Has completely removed the front, middle, back and singing options. Fans are all going to be muddled up together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I asked and this is the response. Not really any improvements then. Where does common sense apply? Surely they know we'll sell out Villa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely they know we'll sell out Villa? Guessing Villa’s strict policy applies to all clubs, likely to sell out or not tickets must be sold in block order. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same at most clubs to avoid having fans scattered all over 2 tiers when they can be confined to a smaller easier to Police/steward area. Still an improvement, although I’m not sure many will choose to sit on the front row, at what point do you open the other blocks for selection?

If you think about it B4, say I want to buy a ticket for Villa but won’t be in Derby between now and the game, it’s a 2hr drive there and 2hr drive back. I’m not going to do that just to buy a ticket, I will either pick up the phone or purchase online, both still need staff to process the sale. Or I could say just forget it and try and pay on the day which would completely bypass the club. Appreciate you’re not a fan of buying online but for others it’s a really handy way of purchasing tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Well I just feel by going ticket office if find a seat you like my dad often does it he sees if any seats near it. By going online you get what you are given that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get it, end up sitting behind young lads who want to stand. The whole system as it stands encourages hassle at away matches. On Saturday we had a lot of young kids near us and a young man right in the middle of them screaming "gay *****" at the Brighton fans. Classy!
