[Brighton] West Bromwich Role Call

[crodonilson]

I imagine the away following will probably be about 300 or so, which we will then get criticised and laughed at about on various social media platforms.

I think it will be plenty more than that. To put it in context Frank Lampards Derby took circa 1,500 to Southampton in the BBC televised replay from the last round. Appreciate it was their big day out going to a PL club but still another round further on and a winnable home tie in the next round should see us pushing north of four figures.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

My role is supporter.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Likewise. No sign of them in todays post.

As if by magic they appeared at lunchtime. Ordered on Sunday.

OP can you change the title to "Role Call of people who are NOT going to the game"?

“Roll call” please

 

[Taybha]

I’ll do a drum role whilst everyone’s tickets fail to arrive

 

[Blackadder]

“Roll call” please

I know. I didn't want to change too much of the original title.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Nope. We've got Polly and Giles coming over for a Bridge night.

We'll probably have Gaz Lineker and the boys on in the background for a bit of atmosphere though

 

[Wilko]

I was going to go but was promised an extra long holiday in the sun if I do not bother.

 

[Official Old Man]

I was going, honestly, if it was on Tuesday. In Birmingham Monday and Tuesday and so would have gone to the match on the Tuesday night.

When I spoke to the ticket office they described [I]sales as 'brisk' although couldn't put an exact number on it. Sounds encouraging though, should be a healthy away audience.[/I]

Sounds like an X Factor promotional soundbite.........

 

[LowKarate]

I’m going with my good friends Tony Meo and Patricia Routledge.

They both wanted to try some of the Baggies’ famed Bovril and Black Pepper drinks after I had relayed to them my experience of said drink.

I'll be very surprised if the away attendance is north of 4 figures...!

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I'm there!


Oh sorry, I thought you said 'wet bum'.....

 

[Henfield One]

Which is the 'away' pub at WBA please? Thanks

 

[Sajerz]

Ordered Friday, still no sign.

The Vine (about 15-20 minute walk) There's not much else around The Hawthornes for away fans although (apparently) there is a Fanzone where visiting fans can get a beer and food by the Halfords Road Stand

Oh, and I'll be going up on a very nearly full Blues Away coach

 

[Bolton va va]

Probably ,..... if somebody gets their arse into gear and buys the tickets , nudge nudge , but so not bothering with the Vine Pre Match still trying to forget the Midlands version of toad in the hole

Did they substitute pork scratchings for sausage in the toad in the hole ? They love them at West Brom & Wolves.....many years ago we went in a pub near Smethwick station & they had at least 4 varieties of pork scratchings !!!

I really couldn’t tell you wtf it was if I guessed all night

 

[Wardy's twin]

Nope.... i did like the day out last year (though not the result) but not this time.
