Re: Expected attendance for villa - LC
Real Madrid midweek at home will be sold out simples, with kids in attendance, so.........why can't Villa at home in the League cup be sold out......all the reasons that are trotted out work commitments, midweek game for kids, everyone having no brass. I welcome the influx of new fans as in 1977 I was one as well, so welcome to one and all.

For all we now City might have suggested to Villa that we should charge a tenner but if they say no there is not a lot you can do about it.

The prices the filth are charging
for the Newcastle game are between £30 and £52 for adults, in comparison £22.50 is a bargain.

Re: Expected attendance for villa - LC
What about those of us living out of town that have to pick and choose midweek games due to work and holidays? When the CL draw was made I had circa 20 hours holiday left so I picked half days for the Dortmund and Madrid games and a day and a half for Ajax. Sorry but I haven't any time off I can take for Villa at home. I have done my fair share or midweek league cup games, getting home at 1:30 / 2am and being up for work at half 5. Wrap.mum knuckles for not being able to attend Aston pissing Villa.

Re: Expected attendance for villa - LC
if it was a tenner youd be looking at 35 maybe 40,000. With most people that go non season ticket holders- your looking at the arsenal game 40 + quid possibly the madrid game and then 22.50 for villa- its too expensive to go to all of them. especially when the lc is in the early stages

Re: Expected attendance for villa - LC
Oh God, I had a feeling all this uber-fan shite would appear on this thread.
In what universe do you live where our reserves against Villa in the first round of the carling cup is as attractive as Real Madrid in the Champions LEague? I'll be at the Villa game but I wouldnt be hugely arsed if I missed it. If something important comes up I might even not bother when push comes to shove. I've done that in this trophy and the Europa league before. It's a nothing game, a kickabout by both team's fringe players in a trophy even the managers aren't hugely arsed about. The Real Madrid game is enormous and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
City, and all premier league clubs, have always got half a crowd for these games. This goes back to the Mercer era, the last great side we had. This applies to all clubs and always has done, even when admission prices were pennies.
Why on earth should this particular game be any different?

Re: Expected attendance for villa - LC
I never miss a home game but I have to admit if I wasn't in the cup scheme I might have given the Villla game a miss.
After all it is my birthday and I'm in the doghouse for missing a birthday meal.

You don't have to be apologetic about it, fella.
You are not "duty bound" to attend every game, no matter how shit. You're paying your hard earned cash and giving up your precious time for an entertainment product.
