Was the Europa league an awful, pointless competition when the Spanish clubs were completely dominating or is it only now the English clubs are having a good run we say that?
Increasing 30,000 season tickets by ~£50 nets the club an additional £1.5m
The excuse used is to “support ongoing investment in the playing squad”
Achieving UCL and winning Europa will earn villa ~£85m
Harvey Elliott’s wages for the duration of his loan cost ~£3.4m
Jadon Sancho’s wages for the duration of his loan cost ~£7.2m
Abraham and Alysson signings cost £30m+ in fees alone only to barely play
Aston Villa spent £38.4m on agent fees between Feb 2025 and Feb 2026
Price hikes exist to help the commercial teams achieve arbitrary year-on-year internal target increases rather than having any material impact on “supporting ongoing investment in the playing squad”.
If it had a meaningful impact - why is our manager dealing with the same core of a squad he took over 4 years ago despite hikes every year?
You don’t NEED to increase ticket prices. You WANT to.
Stop meaninglessly punishing match-going fans and get your act together commercially. And stop lying to us about why.
Pocket pinching loyal fans WILL NOT help Aston Villa compete.

The somewhat positive reaction to this by some is laughable. Why on earth is year on year price increases now the norm? A period of great success on the pitch does not warrant this level of extortion.The cheapest season ticket has increased 90% since being back in the prem #AVFC
Usually when a team goes far in the Europa League, League form suffers.
#AVFC win the thing and finish 4th, after the lowest net spend in the league back in the summer.
Unai Emery- pound for pound the best manager in the League and the manager of the season.
A few words on Freiburg for Villa News.
A club I’ve been fascinated with since my first trip through the Black Forest, who deserve every bit of praise thrown their way.
Pleasure covering them over the years, should be cracking game 👇

#AVFC raising ticket prices for the UEL QF is completely tone-deaf after last night saw the fifth-lowest attendance of the season.
Unai Emery and his players need a packed and rocking Villa Park to push for a trophy - yet fans are being milked again.

@J_Tanswell@TheAthleticFC Ticket prices and the fact Villa would rather someone go down to Villa twice a season spend a load of money in the club shop then people who go every week 👍🏼
@Jr19337 Watching as a Villa fan a neutral thought saints were shit today only got a couple of songs but that’s been known for a while. Pompey out sung them today and at saint marys 👍🏼
@BradleyAVFC_@Wrighti1 Last year from August 2024 to 31st December 2024 we played 9 away games, 8 in the league and Wycombe in the cup. August 2025 to December 31st we have played 11 away games in the league and cup so I think that’s what it will be mate
