[Albion] Boro Away - Ticket info post #83 "attendance data will be obtained from Middlesbrough"

[Hampster Gull]

Middlesbrough already has a day of my life that I will never get back

 

[sully]

Away allocation will be around the 4500 mark

I’m going to stick my neck out here and say we won’t need that many!

I’m going to the Panto on the Saturday, so had already ruled out attending a cup game.

 

[Geestar]

Hopefully will get there!

Urgh. Moving to Yorkshire a few weeks after the game. *bangs head against wall*

How come you are moving?

 

[LamieRobertson]

Washing my hair that weekend.
No way am I traveling all that way again.

Hopefully won't be an early kickoff

£125 return with BA no same day flight available back home so sat/sun Heathrow to Newcastle

Cheapest by train i could find with no railcard from essex was £107.68p .

Lets hope the tickets are cheap

Not bothered looking about the price of coaches , wild horses couldn't drag me on one going that far unless i was playing .

Not sure why all of a sudden flybe from Southampton to Newcastle have stopped the late return did it for Newcastle league great fun

No chance, big game for Boro against a PL side. Given the home team are now able to dictate ticket prices, expect full price for this one

Is it bollocks. If we had Burnley in the cup at home last year would you have considered it a big game?

Be very surprised if more than 1,000 go

Away allocation will be around the 4500 mark, same with Man City in the QF last year. Sunderland had 4400 last weekend. Slightly under the 15% due to segregation under the stands. Oxford were initially given 2500 and sold them and received a further 500 tickets.

Club usually prices them about right to get decent attendances in the cups over recent years, see below. Expect it to be around the same as v Sunderland price wise. Was £13 season ticket holders, £18 non season ticket holders.

Home matches recently in fa cup recently.

2016 v Burnley 18286
2017 v sheff wed 23661
2017 v Accrington 24040
2017 v Oxford 28198
2017 v Man City 32328
2018 v Sunderland 26399

So Boro charged £13 to STH, £18 to others for a Saturday 3pm game against their biggest rivals and got 26,000, the Albion charged £25 for a televised game on a Monday night and only got 14,000.

Is it too much to ask that our club should look at the way Boro treat cup matches and do something similar? Just get the seats filled FFS. We're not Reading.

1000 would be a good turnout for a panto....

Good shout, this. Sadly, we'll never know what the attendance would have been if the match was on a Saturday and cheaper. (Well, unless we draw them next season)

Any ideas when TV schedule for cup weekend will be announced?

It's hard to know what's drawing me back the most. Is it the ship, gently rusting in sight of the ground? The smog? The cold? The six fingered locals swathed in Mackenzie and sporting Croydon facelifts? God, the list of unmissable attractions goes on and on.

Probably some time next week after the replays have been settled. I doubt very much we will be a live TV game. Much more attractive ties in the round.

"Oh no it wouldn't..."

Probably the worst place I have ever visited watching the Albion. Utterly dreadful, really the pits - that ship towers over the ground like some malevolent ghost. And the walk to the ground from the 1930's town centre - depressing doesn't cover it at all. But there's some small part of me saying " go on, wouldn't you like to pay them back for that awful day in May 16".
The other part saying " don't be so bloody stupid".

Yep me and the boys will be there. Only 45 mins down the road. A great opportunity to get a match in where loyality points scheme won't stop us getting a ticket. I've been to this ground more than any other, other than our own. It's usually a fairly dull soulless ground but last time out it was one of the most incredible atomospheres I ever seen in an English league ground. Back to the usual shit with goal music and some spotty youths with a naff drum in a corner trying to create some noise. I hope Mike Dean's the ref. He was so brilliant last time we played Boro
