If away sides have an allocation of 2.7 k or whatever it is and then fail to take up that allocation I cannot see what the club can do about the empty blocks within that the away section selling last. The only thing I would say is that they come to an arrangement that they get an answer from the away sides a little earlier on their take up so as to give plenty of time for our fans to take them. Empty spaces behind our ends ........ Not good.

Well that defeats the whole object of having Albion fans behind the goal. What happened against Wednesday, won't happen again. Club have f***ed this up IMO. The East and West lower wings should have a different price to the centre seats. Then they could sell the corners first.

It's a bit odd that ticket prices jump straight from Zone A to Zone C (S > W)

I thought the away aide had to state how much they wanted and then they were committed to buy those if any returns couldn't be sold by us or it wasn't practical as it made for mixed supporters. So when you see Ipswich saying they have an allocation of 1200 it's because that's all they want to commit to. S'pose they can come back and ask for more if they get a run on them, which is why I presumed we didn't release those areas straight away

At least that's how I thought it worked

Ipswich have estimated how many tickets they can sell for a Tuesday evening away game. It makes sense for the Albion to allow the away club to sell £28 tickets first rather than have 150 scattered in ESL whereby we lose seats through segregation.

Shocking turnout from Birmingham. One of the lowest turnouts we'll see at The Amex this season.

There's a small block in S1A, which is actually the southern end of the east stand lower. I imagine they will trickle-release more in this block in due course. Few odd seats elsewhere which look like TE seats??

There are some things money can't buy...a £34 away seat appears to be one of them.

I'm quite looking forward to the inevitable selection of comedy banners from Albion's finest.
