@JUSTIN_AVFC_ No enough that is for sure. Not all of us live near Villa Park

If anybody has any questions they want me to ask in the Club Shop then just drop them in the comments and I’ll do my very best. I will ask about how many Shirts they’ve got. I will give you an update on pricing and anything like that but anything else you wanna know drop a comment in and I’ll do my very best to answer them all

Victory @dan_villafan see you next season x

@thefootballpark @AVFCOfficial Blame UEFA

@AVFCOfficial 10,700 tickets for a final is a disgrace!

Aston Villa is delighted to announce our ticket allocation for the UEFA Europa League final has now sold out. Thank you for your incredible support, Villans 👏

@avfcmax_ @1874dan @_avfcjames They always say that . The only ticket i had checked was Bologna away

@1874dan @_avfcjames I was told by AVFC ticket office that you can’t resell/forward tickets as they’d be matching passports to ticket names. For this reason I couldn’t go cause I had no one to go with?

There's people missing out on tickets while some won the ballot and have instantly whacked them on resale sites for stupid money. Disgrace

@davilla82 @AVFCSupport But you had to go to 7 European to get in the ballot

@AVFCSupport Iv only ever been to two games but won my ticket in ballot 3 cant wait to get there go villa ❤️💙

🚨 Supporters successful in the Category 3 window are reminded that the deadline to claim their ticket is 5pm today. #AVFC

@essaaa__a @jameskeane82 He winding you up you had to have gone to 7 European to get into the ballot. Unless he as brought from UEFA

@jameskeane82 first fucking game?

Successful in the ballot! First ever game with Villa, and what a game it’ll be. Usually a Solihull moors fan but got to support the midlands! UTV🟣🔵! #Avfc #Utv

@SanMiguelMalaga @avfcbreaking .

@avfcbreaking More than it being corporate or for revenue, it’s just bare-faced corruption as they sell the tickets themselves to touts to line their disgusting, fat pockets. Shameless scum. They get away with it. So every year it gets worse. 🤮🤮🤮

There was a time when a European final belonged to the supporters who dragged their club there. Not anymore. When Aston Villa were handed roughly 11,000 tickets for a Europa League final in a 70,000-plus stadium, the number itself told the story. UEFA can package the event however it likes — “festival of football”, “European showpiece”, “global celebration” — but the modern European final is no longer built around supporters. It is built around clients. The supporters fund the journey. The corporates inherit the destination. Villa fans will have spent thousands following the club across Europe. Flights, hotels, time off work, loyalty schemes built over years. Yet when the final arrives, huge sections of the stadium are reserved for sponsors, hospitality guests, executives, delegates and “neutral” allocations that often end up on resale sites within hours. And supporters are expected to accept it. UEFA’s defence is familiar. Sponsors fund competitions. Broadcasters need space. Hospitality drives revenue. All true. But football crossed a line when the event surrounding the final became more important than the supporters inside it. The optics are awful because fans can see it themselves. A finalist gets 11,000 tickets while corporate packages costing thousands remain available. Genuine supporters scramble through ballots with lottery-like odds, while neutral areas fill with tourists taking photos during the warm-up. And UEFA wonders why resentment grows. Supporters are constantly called “the lifeblood of the game” until ticket allocations are discussed. Then they become an inconvenience to work around premium inventory. Football did not become Europe’s dominant sport because sponsors created atmosphere. The noise, colour and emotion UEFA sells globally every season is generated by match-going supporters — the same people increasingly pushed aside at the biggest games. The “neutral fan” concept is perhaps the biggest fiction of all. In theory it promotes access. In reality it fuels resale markets, inflated prices and thousands travelling ticketless out of desperation. UEFA could change it tomorrow. Finalists could receive 70 per cent of the stadium combined. Corporate sections could shrink. Hospitality would still exist. But that would mean sacrificing revenue. And modern football has shown repeatedly which side wins that argument. #AVFC #scfreiburg

@Thetfordlions @avfcbreaking Money

@avfcbreaking Can someone explain how is possible we just got 11k for 42k capacity??11k for friburg..and the others 20 k ? what the hell happened to this amazing game 😞utv

Despite being eligible, it doesn't allow me to register? Anyone had this issue and know of any solutions? #AVFC

@waynemorgans @avfcbreaking Hope your standing next to it then

@avfcbreaking Don’t get the negativity on the drum, well done to those responsible for getting it over the line. If we get it right it has the potential to really lift the atmosphere at VP

The Villa fan group section has been authorised to trial a drum for tomorrow's game against Nottingham Forest. #AVFC

@avfcbreaking I bloody hope not its a dam football match

@ga11agbon They think they are entitled 🤣 hope they lose them both

Really disappointed in the Arsenal caller earlier on the show.. Not very nice to speak to me like that why are Arsenal fans angry and not happy 🤨🤷🏽‍♂️

Villans Only one Villa team have broken the glass ceiling in our European history, we know their names, immortal in the history of our great club. Many of us have tried and failed to to bring a magical European trophy back to Villa Park. I remember that night against Atletico Madrid, glorious failure on the night. I've never heard Villa Park so loud. The Holte lead the way, and young Villans in K3, K4, K5, you have the chance to do something special and louder. You can and you must. Make this grand old stadium stand for 90 minutes and never relent for one damn second. But the Holte End is one fourth of the jigsaw. Trinity. We need you. North. We need you. Witton (sorry Doug). We need you. Bayern Munich. Beaten. PSG. Beaten. Atletico Madrid. Beaten. Anderlecht. Beaten. Athletic Bilbao. Beaten. Barcelona. Beaten. Inter Milan. Beaten. Ajax. Beaten. Celtic. Beaten. A handful of clubs have those scalps. The special sauce in every win? You, Villans. YOU. Every one of those wins, the noise rivaled anywhere at any time. We face admirable foe and a special football club that I know very well. A club who believed in miracles and miracles came true for them. Our players need our voices, our songs, our heart and soul on Thursday. Every stand. Every Villan, old or young. Remember when you walked into Villa Park for the first time? The joy, the tears, the pride, holding the hand of your Mom or Dad or excitedly shephereded in by your big brother or sister or best mate? Let the memory of them be your guide tomorrow night. Sing for Spinksy, Birchy, Alan McInally, for Gary Shaw, for Brian Little, for Paul McGrath and for John McGinn. To the players and staff, we know how good you are, and we ALL want you to walk into the pantheon of greats that adorn our halls. As someone once said.. "The lows just make the highs higher. We are at the heart of English football, we have a majestic name, a decorated past, we serve as a shining light among our peers, we are Aston Villa ". I believe. We believe. Villa believes. UP THE FUCKING EUROPEAN VILLA!!!!

@JImblee1 @premierleague The @premierleague they so corrupt you make me laugh.

This Villa performance is bordering on corrupt. Surely the @premierleague need to have an investigation into this. Damages the integrity of the competition.

@Chelsearory Lol oh dear we rotated our squad the same as Forest have just done. The same West Ham did last season and Spurs too

Knew it. Emery and Villa have let the whole country down. That line up unforgivable, basically thrown the game. Hope Forest batter them in the week now.

@CFO4TAG What deals that then lol

🚨 Notts Forest have STUNNED UEFA by putting tickets on sale for the Europa League final in Istanbul, as well as seats on a charter flight from East Midlands Airport. #NFFC have been accused of over-celebrating but are confident of their progress, due to Mr Marinakis’s “deal” with UEFA.

I’m sure that someone from the #NFFC fans will know who this is ? Anyone witnessing the incident can email me at simon.travell@notts.police.uk and I will do my best to locate this “fan”. If it is you and you would like to clear things up - please get in touch. #NFFC #AVFC

@ga11agbon Whats happened to linaloft and why wont he use Elliott

When I said Onana is made out of straw and buendia is garbage you all said stop Gabby it’s harsh? We’re overachieving so much with some of these players! Onana missed 12 pl games last season and will probably miss the same this season? 50 million investment sell him asap!!

@youngy18 "An unbelievable career, Youngy. Thank you for every ounce of effort you gave in the Villa shirt across both spells. You were a true professional and a leader when we needed it most. Enjoy the retirement—you’ve more than earned it! UTV! 💜💙

From Sefton Road to Vicarage Road to Villa Park to Wembley to Old Trafford to San Siro back to Villa Park to Goodison Park and finally to Portman Road. It’s been some journey that I only dreamt of as a boy! But with this dream there has to be an ending and Saturday might be the Last Game Of My Professional Career🤘🏾💛💜🤍❤️💙 23 years and OUT! To be continued….

@DeadlineDayLive Oh lord

🚨 Aston Villa are READY to sanction John McGinn’s exit for around £20M in a bid to strengthen their financial position. 💰 The move is aimed at helping the club RESIST potential nine-figure offers for Morgan Rogers, who is attracting huge interest. 👀 (Source: Football Insider)
