[Albion] The annual waiting for the upper tiers to open thread.

[DumLum]

Reduced prices.
Massive opposition.
3pm Saturday kick off.
No upper tier.
Here we go.

Kick off at 15:01 why one minute past?

Very expensive for a reserve match. I've learned my lesson at the Villa game and for that reason I'm out.

Confuse the early early leavers.......

 

[pasty]

I shall be waiting until December 31st.

FFS what a palaver! Oh for the days when they just took your money* at the turnstiles, you all filed in and filled the ground! Certain areas could be set aside for those who wished to book in advance.

Out of interest, as a lot of people seem to want to sit in the upper stands, why not open the upper stands first and open the lowers if and when needed (or alternatively, of course, price it so that 30,000 fans were packed into the ground).

*These days they could do it even faster and easier using credit cards rather than having the problem of handling large amounts of cash - I can understand their reluctance to do that.

All games are, to raise awareness for mental health

The 1901 price is decent if you’ve got a special occasion around that time.

You could make a massive dent in the outlay with the inclusive booze if you were so inclined.

Is that the hospitality HBs restaurant? Is it free booze for £99?

You could make a massive dent in the outlay with the inclusive booze if you were Bill Werbeniuk.

The food is worth about £30 tops..? At least 10 pints to put a massive dent in the rest of the cost... would be a good effort [emoji23][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481][emoji481]. TBF I basically agree if “it” (i.e. lounge dining + sit in 1901 seats) was something that appealed...

Edit: on second thoughts if the current Mrs G came along then she probably could make the included wine look like a bargain...

Must be sold out by now with Massive fans taking all the tickets.

 

[pb21]

It says tickets go on sale next Monday, further down it says tickets are available to buy from Monday 9th December.

I remember a NSC meltdown a while back about when 'next Monday' was, now we have definitive proof.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

How is the countdown going ?

Well, that’s going to play merry Hell with my OCD.

At all likely, do we think?

Needs a SURGE. Rough tot up of current availability:

East Lower - 630 (mainly E1A and E1H)
North - 1,460
S1A - 180
West Lower - 480 (nearly all in W1A)

That's the point.

Indeed. Good luck to Jack Spong and the lads though but you get plenty of chances to watch U23 games

 

[dwayne]

Seems like there will be a few streams available for this game.

Still nearly 2k tickets left for sale on the lower levels so no chance of the upper ones being opened, surprising as I thought MASSIVE would bring 30k and demand the whole ground
