[Albion] Luton at home sell out (almost)

[pocketseagull]

Personally think it's quite exciting to be Luton's first ever opponent in the Premier League. Will hopefully be a good game and a little bit of history.

bugger, am in the country for this and really want to get to it. I've never used the exchange, do people think there will be much available on it?

 

[tigertim68]

Still don’t get why people think Luton have a great away support , or why they are roughy toughy
never have been in my experience

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

What time are we doing “you’ve see the Albion now….”?

Going to away games at their place there's a whole section nearest the away end who spend more time throwing coins and doing throat slitting gestures at the away fans than watching the game.

Its also probably the roughest town I've ever been to. I live in Bedfordshire and its the only place in the UK I've felt genuinely unsafe just walking around.

I expect so. Once the message goes up on the main club website saying sold out/ticket exchange now active(or similar) there will be quite a few tickets appearing.

There will be plenty become available as its summer holidays

That and Newcastle selling quickly, West Ham and Bournemouth not so much. Is it all down to the away fans?

I had an Evertonian next to me for the game against them last season, which was not the best feeling. He was, however, in his 80s and the only trouble he caused was his scouse cackling every time they scored.

I’ve got to say that is the most excruciating chant that’s hit the terraces in ages. Cringe worthy and embarrassing doesn’t come close whether it’s done by our lot or other fans.

 

[el punal]

130 left up for grabs at the moment (according to club site).

No real surprise that this has nearly sold out so speculation that its Luton fans is a stretch. There’s fewer match day tickets on sale this part if the season at least - as season tickets sold out . Also - for quite a while now - regardless of opposition /day/ time - all our games sell out . No shortage of Brighton fans who want to see the Albion…even in August.

Me too - Armagheddon would be a better place to live
Literally I can't think of anywhere worse that I've visited in the UK.
Middlesborough maybe - but that has the coast.

100% will get a ticket if you want one - for any Albion home game.

Agree, should only be used when we are beating man United convincingly based on origins

Why then, Mr Know It All, are the games a couple of weeks later still showing plenty of availability?

The ticket exchange is open now.
Not announced on the website but just checked the ticket page.

I don’t know who this Mr Know It All is - so I’d ask him if he’s about. But I’d say it’s because one is on August 26th (in 6 weeks time) and one is on Sept 2nd. (7 weeks time) .

If it has any place in football it's as a 'punching up' chant.
It really isn't worthy of us big 6 fans.

 

[Tony the Pony]

I'm on holiday, so my ticket in the SW corner has just gone on the exchange. It's currently the only seat available in that block!

What’s the atmosphere like in the south?
