Fair play to Mr Barber he appears to have learnt his lesson and got on with it this time.

Shame they didn’t open both originally as I am sure there will be a fair few who dived into west lower corners or whatever who would rather be in their normal West Upper.

Like four of us for a start. Didn't want to run the (albeit small) risk of waiting for WSU to open,then find it didn't and not be able to get a ticket. I guess there is sod all chance of being allowed to change our ESU tickets back to our ST seats?

The club indeed said at the start that there was sod all chance of this being allowed.

People will find anything to moan about so I'm gonna say it - this has been managed perfectly.

Including :

1) Keeping a lid on Cup Fever about the club until after the Stoke match.

2) Having a short time period where Coventry fans getting tickets in the home end would pretty much have had to get them by the segregation areas.

Should be offering WSU st holders a window to reserve their usual seat. If I find someone in my seat they are getting a boiling hot bovril chucked on their balls.
Why? I didn't get a window to secure my seat in the NS and that went to someone else. My tough shit. I snooze. I loose [emoji6]

Hmmm... they were down to just a few 100 unsold in ESU.

And today/tomorrow was probably the last day to give notice to staff that they're needed.

I'd say his hand was forced.

Back in Sussex
The WSU is going to be a glorious place to be. A few hundred rattling around, all the space in the world to stretch out in and no queues for beers and pies.

I'm tempted to buy another ticket and head up there.

I agree. We need to promote the 'buy a second ticket' notion.

Might be worth checking refreshments will be open if only a few hundred up there.

At the same time, swelling this summer's transfer war-chest for next season's promotion campaign.

Interesting snippit:

‘both Jurgen Locadia and Leonardo Ulloa expected to make their first starts after joining Albion in January, another bumper crowd is expected at the Amex.’

First bit of decent marketing on the game they have done!

The awfully low round 3 attendance was a reality.

Opening the stadium section by section this time around, has been shrewd..

Bollox it has... it was a **** up BELATEDLY corrected by our club...
