On Villatalk there is an excellent thread speculating about possible new season ticket sales and two pieces of gossip/ITK

Last season we sold 27,000 season tickets and as of last Friday we had sold 20,000. I was at a meeting at Villa Park and was told those figures by a senior person at the club.
And before anyone has a go I am not in the know. The company I work for and the club may be working together on something. It came up in conversation as they knew I was a season ticket holder and asked whether I had renewed yet, which for the record I did a couple months ago
I would say that this is very good news, given the economic times and some people’s negativity about last season and well on target for 25-27000 again.

So how many season tickets do Villa sell on Average??? What was last seasons quota??
About 5’000 less than capacity…which isn’t bad seeing as half the fans don’t actually come from Birmingham. Not that it makes much difference to the atmosphere, an extra 5000 sitting in silence won’t make much difference.
