Lots of empty seats. I would be sitting in mine if it were cheaper.

Could have been 27,000 x £24
Rather than 21,000 x £28/£32.
Barber got it wrong and overpriced for a live tv game.
Would have let 6,000 others have favourable memories of a great Amex occasion.

And those that did go would have alot more goodwill toward the club and their attitude to supporters cost constraints at this time of year.

We can see there is a total of 815 tickets left (http://amextickets.azurewebsites.net/) for the Newcastle game
- only about 500 of these left are not individial tickets (I guess going to football on your own is less appealing).
- more people will turn up for this one as they have paid specifically for the seat
- we still have 3 days of selling to go
Therefore I think we are pretty certain to see more people at this fixture than any game so far this season. This is amazing, a real success for the club that shows how impressive our support now is, especially as people could have stayed at home and watched it on the telly for free.
I know a few (vocal minority) really whinged at the pricing. I'm afraid any they were wrong...Hats off tothe club for really knowing the level of support for the club and getting the stadium full to the brim!
21000 ? Got that wrong then

Your wild presumption with zero evidence was wrong by a mere 6,000!

Barber got it very wrong and fans like you are not wanted to voice these stupid stupid opinions!!! I've missed this great game because my Club has got very greedy!!!!

Attendance didn't seem THAT much different from a league game. Wouldn't say 5,000 less. I'm guessing today was literally only people who came through the gate, rather than those season ticket holders that don't turn up!

Don't post too often to people's comments but all this crap is annoying me. Absolutely nothing to suggest that if the tickets were a tenna cheaper then more people would have turned up. At the end of the day if someone wanted to watch the Albion at home against a prem team they'd find the extra wedge. Not like there are high travel costs etc.
Besides, the 21k odd today made more noise than the usual 26k or normal moaners and whiners do anyway

Called elastic demand based on pricing.
If 26,000 attend for run of the mill mid table league games, then a lowish price will entice a sell out cup game against PL opposition.
Albion played fantastic today, which got the crowd going.
At some awful or flat league games, the crowd got bored to tears.
Amazing what goals/a win does, eh?
