So far the only Club, that has revisited the Amex, to have increased their support here is Cardiff. Everyone else has had fewer supporters than last season which is a bit disappointing. Of the remaining home fixtures I can only see Derby,Leicester & Palace possibly bringing more this season than last.

Does anyone know the actual amount of tickets we offer away fans each league game (does it differ from Club to Club or is it a set amount and unsolds are returned to us for Albion fans) and what is the maximum away allocation at present ?

we would have brought more but for the last two seasons we have only been given Tuesday night games against Brighton, home and away. will be in wales for the game in February and am hoping for a good few Brighton m8s to make a day of it as well. will be strange drinking with them on my patch. for what its worth, anybody thinking you might get palace at wembley in the play off final ? it is shaping up as a possibility thats for sure. good luck saturday against forest. :)

Re Palace, yes. I can see them finishing 4th behind you guys, Leicester and Middlesbrough. We may sneak into 6th - that sets up a possible match at Wembley, and I'd happily take the 5-0 defeat at Selhurst, the 3-1 defeat last year, and the recent 3-0 disgrace if we get the payback in the playoff final.

that would mean you play us in the semis, hope not, there will bedlam in my house lol. my misses hates the city. at the moment i got cardiff and hull going up followed by leicester and boro. with brighton and palace in 5th and 6th. am also worried about ipswich, mick mcarthy is a top manager in this league. but theres still a long way to go and as you know anybody can win anywhere in this division.

Was going to say that it could be worse, just been watching the highlights of Sampdoria v Udinese - Apparently 1 Away ticket sold & his team won 2-0 :lol:

How EPIC would that be!

Almost every away fan I spoke to last season on the train back was very impressed with The Amex, less so with the transport to and from.

This is having a bearing I think.

It really surprizes me this thought process - going to any football match home or away is generally a mission regarding getting out of grounds, catching trains buses or coaches. I never give a thought to how easy it is to get to a ground or away from a ground. For example west ham is a nightmare queing at the tube to get back to london...

My main consideration is, is it a new ground for me. I am definitely going to Blackburn because i havent been there before, however this clearly doesnt stop me visiting grounds that i have been to before as i go to support the team not how easy it is to get there or get home.
