Pretty Pink Fairy, you are a pillock.

If you don't want to pay what is a reasonable price, don't come on here and whinge. Just don't go and get off the Big Board. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.

So how many extra tickets will be on sale tomorrow? Should I buy one now and be a billy no mates, or risk waiting til tomorrow on the off chance I can get a pair, that's assuming I can even get on the ticketing website. Anyone know how many tickets are unsold? Bit of a shambles TBH.

Assume you missed the email from the club, that started:

As a supporter with a booking history of Albion games at the Amex, I am writing to let you know that you are entitled to a special online pre-sale of tickets for our FA Cup 4th round clash against Arsenal. This pre-sale is online only and you are entitled to purchase one ticket from 7pm on Saturday 17 January. During the pre-sale a limited number of tickets have been released for purchase. At 9am on Monday a further release of seats will be made available online.

Tickets start from £33 for adults, £25 for over 65s, £16 for under 18s and £6 for under 10s.*

I got the same email. No good for me as I need at least two so I'll have to wait and see what's left. I want two together, but if I can't get them then I can't get them. It's not the end of the world and I'm REALLY pleased to see how much interest an FA Cup game has generated. (Although I'm sure all the dullards and saddos will be saying the Ipswich game is 'more important', despite the fact it clearly isn't).

So this game should be cheaper than league games because you want to go ?

So, you don't want to pay to watch the Albion in the Championship, but when they draw a big team in the FA Cup, you want a cheap ticket ?

There is only one Blackburn in Lancashire.

However, apart from being unable to resist the urge to critique your grammar, I actually have no idea what you mean.

I'm not even sure you will have the ability to explain.

Yes, will be in any basic economics textbook. The book will probably also cover how a company makes a return on its capital investments.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

that's not the point and you know it, this game against Arsenal would have sold out smartish at £20
regards
DR

If they were only charging £1 for this match against Arsenal, it still wouldn't have sold out yet as all tickets won't have been on sale yet.

Just because they are charging more for this game doesn't mean that they will slow down their release of tickets for sale to fans using the same method to ensure those that attend games are those who get the chance to buy first (otherwise whats to stop the whole ground being brought up by Arsenal fans)

If the club can sell out at the normal price they charge for their category A games (be it league or cup) why should they charge less? We are losing millions so why would they not look to maximise their income from this match?

If people don't want to pay it, thats their choice and i have no problem with that, everyone's circumstances are different, but should it still sell out, then the club have got the pricing right for this match.

The proceeds are not split 50/50

Looking at FA rules each club gets 45% and the remaining 10% goes to the ''pool'' ...close enough i think

Is the right answer

Can someone else point out how silly this statement is? I would do so, but I'm kinda feeling like I'm picking on him and may not choose the best words to make my point!

You were still wrong though which is why i pulled you up on it.

I think he has issues, probably best to leave him to his thoughts, lets be fair, look what name he has on here!

 

[Quinny]

Might be a few half and half scarves left

They look really good, I will be buying one of those next week

Crikey some of you are brave, I don't know Pretty Pink Fairy but judging by what he posts on here about football fighting and stuff, I wouldn't want to argue with him
