5th round draw - ASTON VILLA away

[Jimmy the Jock]

Id like to see us field the youngsters in the cup game. For me the priority the priority is finishing 21st in the Championship and if we can slightly improve our goal difference against Burnley by resting the first team players then thats what needs to be done. Winning trophies is nothing compared to the promise of one day finishing bottom of the Premier League again.

I quite like the championship . Occasionally we win games , play well , see youngsters coming through .
No real money in it though.

8pm on the Friday.

Hull shifted forward 24 hours, Burnley the following midweek (Tuesday 4th March) as expected.

Bit shit for Hull fans. 11 days warning for the rearranged fixture.

No trains back to Cardiff after the game either.

I’ll be watching from behind the sofa like I used to sixty years ago when the daleks were on Doctor Who.

Bit pointless for a Hull fan to come back to Cardiff after the game

[Cardiff-Cal]

Earlier in the day of the draw I had a good look at odds on who would win the FA Cup, decided Villa at 8/1 was the best value, and put a decent sized stake on it.

Bloody typical! Lol

Exactly.

I won’t be watching at all. Thankfully I’m away skiing and so have the perfect excuse not to watch.

Jesus Bob, you make it sound like the club are playing in South Africa during Apartheid or something. Calm yourself...

[MOZZER2]

Do any of you know when they will go on sale?

£25/£20/£10 for ticket prices.

We've got usual away 'end' on the side of the pitch and the upper tier behind the goals. Which is same as Spurs had, so 6,400. West Ham had a slightly smaller allocation in round 3, but were given their additional tickets on the side of the pitch rather than behind goals.

Seems odd splitting it across 2 stands

Anyone struggling with the website this morning, log in, go to my account, buy available products and then Villa tickets.

Seems to have been fixed now

I had no trouble buying my ticket, but the email they sent says "{NewVersion] Booking Confirmation - Aston Villa v Cardiff City. FA Cup 5th Round" in the subject and "Mjml not supported with old version templates" in the body of the email.

Any ideas how many sold so far?

[EastbourneBlue]

Any ideas how many sold so far?

I wouldn’t have thought there would be that many fans who have done an away this year, or two in the case of members live myself.

3,000 maybe?
