I know but you have to stop drinking in the pub to make your way there and you cant have a fag break at half time to calm your nerves
for the charlton beam back you was allowed in and out as much as you wanted for a smoke as long as you kept your ticket for inspection on the way back in

Yes but like anyone else. Just a cut throat razors edge away from your razor tongue. Lets hope the defeats don't start till next season. That way we are in the Premiership regardless...............Who sung that .... ''Carry on regardless'' ?

Beautiful South ?

Yes, 'Gold As Gold'...

Demand for this seems to be huge!

Presumably the club looked at the most convenient stand and staffing levels vs likely attendance. I wonder if they're looking at whether this would work turning the screen 90 degrees to face say the East stand and sell both tiers? More stewards and staff, but a lot more beer and food sold?

Its brilliant that it has sold out, 3,000 packed in the NS watching a game the other end of the country is fantastic. Hope there will be some decent crowd recordings posted.

I also find it quite funny that the "going to wait until after Derby" crew will miss out.

Just need to win on Monday now.

I can see SKY flicking between The Riverside and the jubilant Amex crowd as the BHA goals fly in. Pitch invasion at full time as well.

Anyone have any spares will be greatly appreciated by me. Happy to reimburse via paypal or beer.

I know that demand is high because of the context. But surely this would be successful for every match. Especially if we are in the prem and its the only chance that some people get to see the Albion at Old Trafford or similar. The fact that beer will be possible in the seats means that the booze sales should be high. What a bloody laugh.

Not convinced. The one and only reason any of our group of 7 are going is because we all want to be amongst 1000's of Albion fans if we get promoted. If it were a regular league match, even as you say it were against Man Utd in the Premier League, I would be a bit me-h, can't be bothered.

Exactly, celebrate amongst our own and please protect the guy that tries to call last orders at the AMEX

Would be interesting to see if any of the screens have a 'delay'. Bupa lounge going mental 15 seconds before the big screen show a corner being taken.

I'm confident that such a possibility made negotiations for the beamback very smooth.
PB: we'd like to do a beamback.
Sky: can we have cameras there?
PB: can you halve the price?
Sky: you cheeky get. Fine.
