Wolves does, the beautiful smoky bastards.

Do they? Not a smoker so I usually stick in the concourse. Derby do it as well.

I remember them doing free travel an awful lot under Megson. Middlesbrough, Spurs and Chelsea were free travel in the league. Sunderland might have been as well but it got called off if i remember rightly.

Chelsea in the cup the season after was free travel as well, I took them up on the offer and watched the 4-0 drubbing!

I'm in for this one as well. Can't afford to get to many away days but I always like to do two or three a season. Glad to hear it'll sell out. Although our original allocation of 2600 didn't seem like much, aren't WBA obligated to offer us a certain % of their stadium capacity? Perhaps we'll ask for more tickets if we sell out those final tickets quickly.

Out of interest, we'd won one in the opening six league games (relegation form!) and had just gone out of the League Cup at Burnley.

But you're right in that it felt like we were doing better.

Got results/fixtures from this season and last stuck to the side of the work computer. Was early October we went to Baggieland; Wolves was in the middle of that lovely November, the one where we won three and drew two of our five games.

Pleased it's a sell out, I'd be embarrassed if it wasn't though.

Same team as Stoke please, with maybe Ngog in for KD. COYWM!

Doubt there will be more given.

That's good of you to pay £15 each.....no please or thank you, manners cost nothing, but for you I'll charge £15.

Don't mean to sound like a nob here but if you missed out it serves you right. You had enough time to sort out the tickets before the 5-0 win!
