Yeah, I felt the same when we beat Man City 3-2 in the Covid era.

What about the 'proper fans' who weren't so lucky in the ballot?

Agreed. Need to move the away fans too. Not sure where too though. Not many clubs give away fans behind the goal for obvious reasons.
It’s too late, luck of the draw deems you’re now one of us plastics
(Don’t worry, I only found out I was this evening too)

All the regular STH's where I sit in WU, no fair weather supporters.
We all felt very downbeat before kick off but we're all glad we went, plenty of mojo's boosted this afternoon.

Up in the gods of the west stand and then claim whatever excuse Newcastle use for doing the same…

Had a space next to me today, was lovely.
Really enjoyed it.
We all had a shift around too, was all very amiable.

And yet no audible difference in noise really. I'm not sure what to make of that. Other than it was easier to have a piss.
We have always had no more than 4-6000 hard core fans. The rest are busy people with fences to creosote now the weather has improved, and anyway there is always Chelsea on the telly.
3 next to me were free. I looked like Reece Mogg on the front bench. Minus the being a total, gaping arsehole part.
Big screen down on the beach.
To be fair, in August / September / May they’d probably go for it.

What the hell does that mean? I going to miss the Chelsea game so I lose my hardcore status? My daughter works abroad and can only make a game if she’s back in the UK therefore she’s a plastic. Proper fans are those that support the Albion as and when they can regardless of how many matches they attend. I’ll leave it at that.
I really enjoyed that game. I didn't have to sit next to anyone. It was just like watching quietly at home.

How long ago was that? I'll give you a clue, 1983, the first game was played on 21st May!!!

I lost out in the ballot but not all the tickets were actually sold from the ballot in the end. You could buy a ticket for that game from the ticket office - which is what my friend and I did - second front row just behind the South goal! Great night.

Doesn't sound like you are very good at sums; there was probably 26-27,000 in the ground today; knock-off the 3,000 Villa fans and that equates to around 23,000 committed Albion fans who turned-up despite our terrible form.
