Aston Villa have no plans to sell 2020/21 season tickets
Aston Villa have confirmed that the club has no plans to sell season tickets for the 2020/21 season, as fans remain locked out of fixtures for the foreseeable future.
Fans have been unable to attend games since March, amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and Villa have now confirmed that season tickets will not go on sale for the current campaign.
In a statement issued online, Villa announced that should fans be able to return to B6 at any point this season that a ballot of 2019/20 season ticket holders will dictate which supporters can attend fixtures, with limited capacities expected.
"The club can confirm that there are no plans for season tickets to go on sale for 2020/21." the statement read.
"When a return of supporters to Villa Park is possible this season, tickets for any games will be sold via ballots of 2019/20 season ticket holders due to the limited capacities expected in the stadium.
"The club came to this decision after we consulted supporters via a survey with 7,701 fans responding. 81 per cent of our supporters said that they preferred a ballot to decide entry if capacities were reduced.
"The club will also make provision for supporters who require a place in the Accessible Seating and Wheelchair Bays to be able to access games via their own ballot, when fans are permitted to return."
Any fans will not be guaranteed their normal season ticket seat should they be able to attend fixtures this season via the ballot, however following a full return fans will have their original seats held in place for them.
Meanwhile Villa memberships remain on-hold for the season. You can read the full club statement here.
