Season Ticket Holders v West Brom

Has anyone heard anything from the club regarding a ticketing policy for the last game of the season against West Brom.

All being well in the country we should have access for around 9000 fans in the stadium.

I imagine these will be offered to season ticket holders on a luck of the draw basis? (20000 ticket holders, almost 50/50 chance)

Has anyone heard anything though?

I really hope I can get a ticket.

I have really missed it.

But accept that there's a limited number and may not be lucky enough.

Would be nice to have some information though.

Yeah I've definitely missed going ...... watching it on TV with sterile stadiums, just isn't the same.

The other element, not sure how much of a factor it would be, is the fairness to the clubs playing away? Not so much of an issue for us, nor West Brom by that stage i'd imagine. But if there's a promotion/relegation at stake, then having fans in might create an advantage for the home team, that's not existed all season maybe???

I do get where you're coming from though.....

I think the Premier League have acknowledged this and are moving the previous round of fixtures back from the weekend to the midweek. This will move the fixtures within the governments date for the relaxation and mean each club gets a home fixture with fans

I think it’s important some fans can get to see their team play. I also think it will be good for the players. Let’s give Alioski a decent send off and let the players know how much we’ve enjoyed this season and appreciate their commitment to the cause - and not forgetting Bielsa.

No chance I’ll get a ticket but I’d be there like a shot if I was offered one.

I'd personally rather see the season written off, as a ST holder. I've thought that for some time now.

Whether it's a lucky dip or any other way of deciding, i just think it's fairer if everyone just starts again with a new season and clean slate.

Totally agree.

West Brom game would be like going to a show and watching the last 5 minutes only.

It is a tricky one for sure. 95% of the games played with no crowd then the last 2 which could be absolutely crucial for relegation for some teams played under different conditions. Would be open to cries of unfairness I feel.

Will there be an away allocation, I doubt it.

Wonder what the staffing costs will be like for 9000 people, you'd still need stewards, possibly police etc. Wonder at what point do they start to break even.

Would rather we started again next season,

Not heard anything yet but i think i would feel happier than Charlie Bucket if i got a golden ticket to the West Brom game

None of this wait until next season stuff. Want to see Leeds live in the PL for the first time. Don't have a ST anymore, but will try to play the guilt card on my dad and see if he caves
