    Looks Like Wednesday Will Sell Out

    From their fan forum

    Looks like they’ll be only around 1,000 tickets for tomorrow - plus whatever other areas they can release.

    They are hoping the club/police will let them have the lower tier below our fans which is not usually open to home fans.

    After their win today it will be like a cup final for them!

    Stay up - their manager for me should get the best manager in the league award as it will be a miracle.

    Currently less than 400 seats remaining in the home ends, mostly singles. No announcement has been made regarding the opening of the lower tier of the Leppings Lane stand for either set of supporters as yet so this fixture will very likely sell out by close of play today or early tomorrow.

    So, by 5pm on Saturday, there will be a lot more disappointed home fans than usual leaving Hillsborough!

    Dan - called the ticket office this morning and they said they have requested the lower tier three times but Sheffield don’t want to know.

    Might leave it empty on police advice with our lot above!

    The way some of our away fans behave I wouldn’t want to sit below as a home fan!

    I would be surprised Dave if the police allow the bottom tier to be open with the risk of idiots lobbing flares and seats from the upper level.

    Read similar online a couple of days ago re the lower tier. I've always thought it's daft having opposing supporters above/below each other regardless of who they support.

    There's been some choice moments at Blues too when they've been above us in the wonderfully titled 'Olympic Gallery'. And then there's always the Mol'.

    It's not an Albion thing. It's a use your common sense thing. Never depend on the intelligence or otherwise of the human condition. There's no need to put temptation in the hands of those above whomever they support.

    Wise words right there....🤔
    Consider yourself to have had a good day if you read nothing else but those words.
    Most applicable to non football related life matters especially...

    See Wednesday have opened up the bottom tier for their fans albeit reduced due to obstacles that may be thrown from above. On their forum there’s a mention of a West Brom fan obtaining tickets for that section - seems odd as thought the ticketing history would be like Fort Knox.
