We'll turn up play with no passion or desire. Keep giving the ball to keogh, who'll have no one to pass to as every other player is hiding Meanwhile villa will wait for bogle to make his goal conceding error and play out the rest of the game with ease If I went to football just for the 90 minutes I would have given up years ago.

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. It will still be cheaper to drive for 4hrs than use the rip off 0871 no on your mobile !! ?

Will we be ok turning up and buying tickets in the home end? If so, any advice on where to sit, please? We’re assuming Derby won’t do anything exciting enough for us to give ourselves away! I sat with the Villa fans a couple of years ago in the Doug Ellis stand next to the Derby fans. I'm not sure if you'll be able to pay on the day though. I got away with registering and buying online due to my Birmingham post code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Bristol post code might confuse them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, simple answer: time and money. Journey time (including 5 minute drive to the station) for the Tamworth to Witton route = just over an hour. Train fair £12:60 return + £6 to park (it's a little cheaper to park in Tamworth town centre but not much) = £18:60 compared with: Journey time via Four Oaks (including 15 minute drive) = just over half an hour Train fair = £3.40 (free parking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archram Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Have registered on the Villa site - which is even worse than ours - and bought tickets. Now I don’t want the team playing well and making me sit on my hands as it’s not good for my arthritis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
