I hope WBA get a bigger allocation than 2500 or that will reduce the gate to 23,000. They should have close to 4,000 tickets, they would shift them no problem.

Allocation for West Brom on the boxing fixture is 2,500,not sure how many have been sold Just a short journey vai M6 and/or A45. No worse or time consuming than Bristol to Gloucester. Or Ashton Gate to Swindon Town. So not so wonderful fans as it would appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudolf Hucker Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) The 15ers would surely take more than that. FFS they once took 40,000+ to Wembley. Edited December 20, 2022 by Rudolf Hucker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having a go at you Alan, but I did say ticket sales specifically…not fans through the turnstiles. We all know that ticket sales are greater than “bums on seats”. I don’t be there either. Merry Xmas. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us we need to get the three points and get climbing the table. For them, they are on a run towards the play offs, plus it is is Boxing Day, which is usually one of the best supported days of the season.
