Not going, £33 when we'll be charging them twenty at ours.

I wouldn't be going to watch Derby County and don't fancy paying more than twice what it costs me to see Albion via my HST. And even though fairly local (ish) I absolutely hate 12:30 kick offs. They're inconvenient and never feel right. Only put up with it last season because it was our final away game and everybody kicked off at the same time so we were all in the same boat.

Derby County (money grabbing b@rstew@rds) and Sky (for the urine taking inconvenience they routinely cause) can get stuffed for this one. Unimpressed, I'm officially flouncing and voting with my wallet with a view to picking and choosing my away days for the rest of the season. I can see me missing quite a few.

Although I've done the vast majority of away days in all competitions for yonks I've never had an away season ticket. Gave some thought to one this time around but decided against it given the way we were mucked about last season. So glad I didn't bother. It's a real pity as I love away days but I'm becoming increasingly vexed.

What's that noise? My kidneys breathing a sigh of relief  ;D .

I am going. I'm in that block with 510 tickets remaining. Billy no mates as usual.  ;D

Who else is going?

Our recent record against Derby isn't good in fact they are starting to become really annoying. We need to turn these over and put them in their place.

I'll be there mate, hoping that we can do them over, but they seem to always be able to turn us over lately.

I think we have sold just over two thousand so far. £33 a ticket,  game on tv a pretty decent effort.

We've been given 800 extra tickets.

Considering the game is live on Sky, 12,30 kick off and the tickets ain't cheap taking over 2,000 I think is not bad at all.

.

People have all manner of reasons for not attending this game. For me the 12:30 hrs kick off is part of a bigger picture regarding fixture changes generally. Ally that to £33 and a mid day kick off for the second season in a row when it's £20 for them at ours and I'm out. If others wish to go then fair play to them but my mind's made up. Would I go later in the season if there was more on it than currently? Possibly, but for now the sponds are staying in my pocket.

Having missed about four games in all competitions home and away over the last five or six seasons I'd say I'm serious about the Albion and promotion this season too. I'm choosing to bin off the next four away fixtures because of spiraling general costs and the faff about factor created by TV and match day scheduling though. Leeds away last season was £38 for the match ticket (while on TV), £6.90 to get to West Brom, £20 coach and then a £20 taxi back from West Brom and I'd probably be looking at the same again this time around. That's £84.90 before we even get to beers which I've cut down on considerably.

My finances aren't what they were but once I've recouped some dough I'll be back on the road again and hope to be there for Boro away. I went through well in excess of £2,300 following the Albion away last season, and that's before we get onto tickets and coach etc for my lad (Ed: or five away days for the wife) . Never confuse non attendance over a few fixtures for not being serious. I'm deadly serious that I'm sick and tired of being taken for a mug and paying through the nose for the privilege. And no I won't be going to the pub to watch it either, naughty word Sky TV.

Enjoy your day out.

i completely understand your point and i am in the same boat throughout the season as i go to around 12 away games a year so it is costly.

however, there will be many fans in our position, but for a saturday ko, yes its on sky and dinner time but an hour away we should be taking 2,600 there. the reason i say that, is because of our home support is in excess of 20,000 and our away support is very good along with the football we now play under billic is easy to notice from last season and we have started with 3 good results in the league. i would completely not go or understand anyone else not going if it was say a boro or cardiff on a saturday dinner time ko.

£33 a ticket is a lot and to enable me to have the finances for other away games, i am driving saturday. £20 there and back diesel, £33 ticket, and 2 pints and a pie before the game ill be out and back by 4pm and cost £65ish.

Fair play but I don't drive at the moment. And I'm absolutely buggered if I'm going with the wife's idea of her giving me a lift and me giving her my debit card so she can go shopping in Derby city centre during the game. Some saving that would be  ;) .
