When Albion take on the PL next season, I wonder how much it'll end up costing the fans, per goal to watch them play?
It might not have felt like it at the time, but Watford fans enjoyed better value for money than many other fans in the Premier League when it comes to goals scored.
There were 54 goals in total at Vicarage Road last season, the joint tenth most in the Premier League, which means Watford fans paid £9.58 for every goal they saw.
The average supporter in the Premier League paid £12.06 to witness a goal live during the 2016/17 season, according to new research analysing the value for money of football entertainment across England's top division.
Findings revealed that fans at the Emirates Stadium forked out a whopping £27.52 per goal scored – the highest amount in the league, despite witnessing 55 goals at Arsenal's home ground during this campaign.
Money-saving website Voucherbox.co.uk analysed the average price of a season ticket at all top-flight English grounds and compared this with the total number of goals scored in each stadium.
The theme of expensive goals continues across north London, where a combination of expensive season tickets (£1,300) and a resilient Spurs defence meant that each goal witnessed in the final season at White Hart Lane cost fans £23.75.
At the other end of the scale, relegated Hull and Sunderland will take little comfort from the knowledge that their sides were in the top three for value for money in the Premier League. The Tigers claimed top spot as their £432 season ticket and 63 goals netted in the KCOM Stadium meant that it cost just £6.86 per goal.
Unfortunately for both teams, the majority of goals scored in their home stadium were at the wrong end (56% and 68% respectively).
By comparison, the average amount for the league as a whole is more expensive than the Bundesliga's poorest value for money stadium (£12.05 at Darmstadt's Jonathan Heimes Stadion) and the average cost of a goal in Germany's top division is just £9.17.
