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

[Geestar]

If the tickets are cheap it will be interesting to see how the club apply the "no show up, no points" plan.
If you're in the north, this might be your one chance to see the Albion away this year.

I hope so!

I did a write up of our noon kick off dead rubber in 2015. I don't buy the 'shithole' thing. It's not. But reading it again I realise how footballing times have changed.

So we only have 450 hardcore fans?

Less than that if you if you only count away fans from when we were shit. Some more joined us when we were successful in the Championship, but even then generally less than 1000 travelling up north, and then the hordes of 'hardcore' away fans apperared this season.

Really sensible pricing - we should have done this for the Palace game.

Great job offer in Leeds. Fancy a change - it's been a tough decision though.

Best of luck Notters. Will miss your pro Newhaven posts.

 

[Official Old Man]

Is the date settled? What if the game is moved for TV?

No, forget that, silly question. Who wants to watch a lowly Championship club take on a high flying PL club at home?

Yes, but they deliberatly over priced it.

Is it usual to charge non-ST holders more (for an away game) than ST holders? Can't say I've noticed that before (not that I've been paying very much attention). What is the reasoning behind it? (I realise non-ST holders pay more for a home league match, with general admission being more expensive than the ST match-by-match price, but why charge them more for an away game?)

I thought the same, I honestly cant see a reason why, unless there is some further admin they need to do for general sale, to create an account and add points to maybe? The prices will be set by Boro so it must be an addition from our club.

Reading do cheaper tickets for away fans who are season ticket holders, £20 last season

Can I just say, well done sir, for that bit of Latin. Made me laugh (once I'd translated it on Google)

 

[Bozza]

I've heard the club attempted to charter a train to get fans to and from Boro, but it hasn't proved possible (something to do with the bit back South of London).

I guess the question is - are the club charging non-season ticket holders a £5 premium, or are they funding a £5 discount for STHs??

Date settled, It wasn't likely to get TV coverage, I can barley be arse to go watch it and I have a vested interest!

My guess would be the latter, as is done by a few other clubs.

The Boro v Sunderland cup tie played last Saturday had the same ticket prices for home fans.( I didn't look at away fans ticket prices)
I guess Boro are passing on a discount to Albion ST holders as well.
