But prices aren't going to drop.
I think, barring promotion, our attendances have pretty much peaked.
An end to the cost of living crisis which seems to be going on forever might help.

The only reason Saturday isn't sold out is because it's the most expensive ticket in the league and probably the most expensive kids ticket in the history of the division.

People do throw money around but I don't think it's comparable to football.

Yup attendance vs Charlton will be much bigger than depending on how many Baggies bring. Not sure why charlton were only given 2150 tickets.

it's also an easy excuse if you are playing shite and don't fancy going to a 12:30 kick off to watch your team maybe get a tonking from a local rival.

Last time they claiming they were boycotring they were doing well and all still turned up

Maybe, but they'd have sold out at even £37.

QPR are charging them £39 and they are going to sell it out.

Nicole Ibbetson has told a supporters club meeting tonight that away fans will only be given 2100 for the rest of the season as they are moving the segregation like the Sheffield United game.

We get shite allocations these days so why shouldn't we cut it back to the minimum we have to give

They may fancy it at £32-37 though. Even if not officially boycotting, West Brom not selling out 2700 tickets up the road is pretty telling.

it's not, the ones I know just don't want to see them potentially get made to look shite against us

if they were playing well and confident of beating us they'd have found 2700 people to buy a ticket

Right call. Too many games with an empty block in the away end this year and a full home end.

That didn't stop them selling out 2000 away at Ipswich in their last Saturday away game and they even took 1500 to Charlton midweek a few weeks ago. More than they have supposedly sold so far.

You're right, if they were top, they would have like sold out.

Bring tinnies on the train and a meal deal costs about a tenner from WHSmith at New St. Train ticket probably a £8-10 too.

They'd probably spend 250k on a house as well, but neither is really relevant.
And £50? Lightweights!

£30 for football tickets was relatively normal 10-15 years ago for an adult, its one of the few things that hasn't risen with inflation, everything else, has.

Look at your ST price now versus back then, the prices have barely moved.

Mental that likely 28k+ attendance will be “empty” how times change!

Yeah because I find it baffling. I've never once decided not to go to a game because I'm scared of the opposition!

Are West Brom fans not turning up to Coventry because they are scared of us and not Ipswich away?

Nope, just the same set up as the Sheffield United game.

That set up doesn't work if away fans have 2700 as there's little way of adding stewards next to the segregation.

Mate about another whole block 9 gone on sale as WBA havnt even sold their their first allocation.

Reckon WBA will bring 1k.

Attendance will be 28k

Woukd have been 31k if pricing wasn't ridiculous.


Charlton will be a bigger attendance.

My view on this allocation is that Coventry are running scared....

Our away fans are becoming well known for the noise they make in supporting our team - non stop throughout the 90+ minutes .

Less fans, less noise ?

Let's make sure we show them that numbers don't matter.

Loud & proud.

I've just read this on the Charlton forum. It sounds like something our fans would say back in those few seasons we generated incredible atmosphere.

Its definitely the sort of utter tripe you'd read on here.
Allocation based on decibels, fucking idiots.

Allocation, no. Access to away tickets based on decibels, yes.

Not really sure why you think it’s stupid. Whenever there is a low away attendance we should always have block 9 on sale for home fans.
The SAG are likely funny about it, so the club will be using this game to demonstrate it’s safe

And the same against west brom. 18 rows in, I think they only went 9 rows in against Sheff Utd.

Doug has an eye on a big named player in January and he needs the money to pay for him.
