But all those people have had first dibs, as was their due. What possible reason could be there be now not to try and allow/get as many Albion at Wembley as possible? Apart from pure selfishness.
What devalues the membership is offering SF tickets to anyone with the cash to buy one for 2019-20. At least the existing members had shown a prior commitment. It could be the first Albion game for someone doing that, buying a 19-20 membership and Wembley tkt, which is nuts compared to others on...
I think that idiot won 'most stupid post of the day', always a feat on here. I'm basically in your situation but just opted to get the bronze membership. Partly because with anti social work patterns, the rare times I can go, I want to go. But you simply cannot say that someone who has invested...
There should now be a general sale for any tickets a) left now or b) that we could get, maybe another 2,000, from City's unsold blocks.
It is very important for the club to realise there are all types of fans and fan attendance behaviour. If you have followed the club for a long time, and/or go...
If this had been Italy, the two chairmen might have got together and a conversation along the lines of 'We'll roll over on the final day if you give us the SF' might have taken place...luckily we're all far too honest and above board for those sort of shenanigans over here
A win would be huge on Saturday, no question. And it would also almost certainly mean if we beat Cardiff then we stay up. Cardiff's fixtures are a real mixed bag, four games they should lose against big guns, but four potentially winnable against teams close to them. Lose to Southampton and/or...
In this case? Really? Firstly, a lot more Albion fans might get to go as a result. And secondly, as PG says, if hypothetically we had nearly 40,000 and they had a bit over 25,000, it's not going to hurt the team's chances any even though on pure ability we all expect to lose. Thirdly, that's...
Come on that's far too sensible, it doesn't have to make sense...and you can't go singing 'You've done really well to bring 200 because we know it's a long way for an evening game and the trains are a nightmare'. Just not catchy.
Genuinely stunned at all those making excuses for City. I acknowledged in original post some mitigating factors for them. But 18,000 to date is pitiful, they are a big-city, 45,000-a-home-game club, with thousands of fans in London.
But fair enough, I'll certainly be singing the 'There's no one...
Please, let's dispense with the whole 'City are just a homespun club with all their fans in Manchester' routine. They are run by effectively another country. They aggressively market for fans worldwide just as United and Liverpool do, they just haven't done it as well. They were fined for FFP...
We aren't struggling at all. Thousands of fans who want to go won't get a ticket, loads of people just come a few times a year to the Amex and don't have a ST or membership. Our process will barely get to them, if at all. If we got 5,000 back from City, we'd sell them.
