Louis Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Hello one and all, Does anyone know what West Brom’s away allocation is from when Villa have played there in the past? How many do they tend to have in their away end? I’m asking because my other and more local team to me Aldershot have been drawn away to WBA on Sunday 7th January in the FA Cup 3rd Round at The Hawthorns and we've been giving an allocation of 2022 tickets (which I think isn’t great), but Aldershot have requested for more tickets. I would appreciate if anyone knew what WBA away holds. Many Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that. Just looked on https://www.theshots.co.uk/west-brom-tickets-further-update/ for an extra 700 tickets on the way. I brought my tickets last night so I was interested. Maybe they could’ve sent a courier from Guildford to Birmingham to go and pick up the tickets! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those teams are bigger than West Brom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 From my experience of games there you're due to make on around £7.56 from coins chucked at your head And they'll switch the beer off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Interestingly, I went to collect my tickets at The Recreation Ground (Aldershot’s stadium) I went into the club shop, requested my 4 tickets which I brought online via Aldershot’s ticketing site, and the lady behind the desk said they weren’t there. So 2nd time lucky I will try again today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
