This is going well - should be a pretty full ground. Extra kudos of annoying West Brom by writing "Albion v West Bromwich Albion" on the tickets*.

*Yes, I know we write "Albion" every match. But West Brom don't know that.

Coventry pricing was £18 and £6 for a 5th round tie including travel and various bits of the ground were opened up every few days based on demand.
So not sure what the difference was.

The only thing I would criticise is not opening the North Stand, depriving those who like a good old sing song. Seems like the club has learnt from this.

Unless I’ve completely lost my marbles I’m pretty sure I was in the Northstand for the Coventry cup game .

Is singing banned/physically impossible unless one is standing within the confines of the North Stand?

Having been to matches where the North Stand is not open then yes, as the singers are split up around the ground. Even when they start gathering at the edges there are 2 lots on opposite sides of the ground. I think North Stand should be opened before East Stand.

They’ve only opened the front half of each block in the WSU.
Yes. And ticket sales in WSU have been a bit disappointing. In round numbers only c.1,500 have been sold leaving c.4,000 empties up there....?

If WBA sell out the South Stand then we are on about 26K at the moment. Hopefully sales will go well this week.
