Nowt wrong with Norwich, although I did escape at an early age with all my fingers and toes intact.
What all 24 of them?

The drinks token was only for the first X people. Our group didn't get them, for example.
(I'm not disagreeing with your general point, just correcting this aspect of it)
The other clubs who took the venue didn’t charge their fans
Not quite true. Man City charged fans for the Carabao Cup final. (they did have a free ticket , but also a VIP ticket, similar to the Albion/semi final - that included drinks tokens and guaranteed entry).

That’s not entirely fair. Entry got you a token for a drink (£6), plus the place was decked out with Albion banners etc, had a stage where interviews with ex players, TB, the team after the game etc...
Your approach is a bit like saying that entry to a muddy field in Worthy Farm at the end of June costs a couple of hundred quid for a long weekend.
Meanwhile we charged fans £15 to enter a free venue.
Only if you wanted to go, and it was £10. I presume that you’re talking about Box Park for the cup semi-final? I took my son in law and grandson along, they really enjoyed it. The club put a lot into the occasion so no complaints from me.
Now if really want to have a moan about “profiteering” read some of the stories about fans being ripped off for the Champions League Final in Madrid - flight fares, hotel accommodation, cost of food and drink - ouch!

Ooh! You never know, we might just scrape into the Europa League. Our first game away to Kairat Almaty in Kazakhstan. Southern will no doubt be putting on extra trains.
Delia has it sussed.
