Good to hear positive and decent contributions from a few Villa supporters. Best wishes to you for your season but not in the Carabao cup!

Looks like season tickets are no longer available

Brings back memories of our last big league cup against Notts Forrest Sept 69.
They had few international players got beat 2-1 but very unlucky.
Hope this is our year a win and maybe one of the other Premier League clubs to help finances.

Correct. There was a deadline set for ST sales which has now passed.

Ticketing structure should go as follows all being well

Season ticket holder - Saturday Sunday
Trust members - Monday Tuesday
Those who can show a Exeter ticket/enter a valid code - Wednesday Thursday Friday
Open sale

If the club don’t incorporate some kind of priority for those who attend Exeter next Tuesday then they have missed a trick

As a regular for the past 40 years - but not a Season ticket holder or a member - I’m just hoping that I can get tickets for my lad and myself. There is bound to be plenty of interest from those who attend the ‘big’ games once every 5 years or so.
I’d be happy if they could incorporate a way of rewarding those who went to the 1st Round game as they will have details from online sales etc.

I've got to agree with this, the Aston Villa game is obviously going to be a sell-out but this could be used to increase the attendance for the Exeter game next Tuesday and entice people to attend therefore earning the club more money. You’ve got to take advantage of these situations and hopefully get new fans into the ground and make them want to attend more often.

Yep, agree with you both 100%

What about those that attended the first cup game?

Trust Members have been sent a GDPR waiver to allow the Trust to share your personal information with the club.

If members haven't signed this then there is no way for you to be on a priority list.

Only circa 200 of 700 members have completed this since it was sent a few weeks ago. Recommend that people do this as soon as possible.

Unfortunately you have to draw the line somewhere. There would have been few home ties that would result in a sellout and this is one of them. IMO Jeff's structure seems to be the fairest and it will put a few on the Tuesday gate.

Double money off one off people.
Unfortunately .its not possible to sell tickets when the date has not yet been announced. And then there will be priorities on who gets first go at buying...online I guess , before online general sale. So Exeter game I'm guessing may not be available for open sale. Also the little matter of a game away at Harrogate to sell tickets for plus all the rest of organizing around a potential 5.5k crowd and as someone already mentioned those who attended the sunderland and middlesborough game that will reappear for 1 night only
That's why we have full time staff for these kind of things and if tickets aren't organised and on sale by next week I'd be surprised
