Why only £20? Why not £30. Really take the [SwearFilter] out of us all. And capitalise on the opportunity 🙄

There will be quite a few brummies using their world atlas to find out exactly where we are on this planet.

It costs £17 on the terraces to watch Barrow v Sutton United…….

I’ll never understand the mindset of some Barrow fans. On a night we draw a Top side in a competition and the biggest game in years and the thoughts of some are immediately on to giving up a whole end for away fans when it is likely that Barrow fan interest in this will be massive and then you've got others like yourself already hiking up the ticket prices to take advantage of fan interest in this. Unbelievable.

On away allocation I think the away club can have more than they would have for a normal league match. Been to a lot of league cup games and that always happens. Think Rochdale took about 7 to 8000 to Old Trafford a couple of years ago. It's not a problem for the big clubs to accommodate loads of away fans especially in the early rounds. Not sure how that will apply to Barrow though. Just have to wait and see. Hence we might have no option but to give over the Holker St End like it or not. And yes Villa will fill their allocation they have a vibrant large away support.

What’s the current capacity? Won’t be any more than 6500 will it?

Some of the Villa fans saying they should play their youth team, together with some not too complimentary descriptions of the town ha.

Totally agree lots of pop up bars inside the ground, lots of programmes merchandise etc need to really get our act together on this one.

Think our capacity is around 5600 but it states on the website that away allocation is 650. Our ground does not hold 6500 so the 10 per cent rule is interesting.

Surely you don't agree with putting the ticket prices up to take advantage of a big game. We have debated the cost of games for years alongside the financial struggles in this area.

Hi there,

Villa fan in peace...

Looking forward to this game, it should be fun. Hopefully we will get the away draw and then take u back to a full Villa Park and in front of 42,000 fans I think we should be able to get the win and safely through to the next round.
