Absolutely outstanding!!!!

I’d heard somewhere that we weren’t taking many but it looked full and could hear them all night from start to finish. Really sorry for them we didn’t nick the 3pts.

Steward told me 1400 but I don't know if they'd taken in to account the number of tickets that had been issued twice!!
Disgraceful how away tickets are dealt with currently

It was a good following and atmosphere last night - impressive given it was a Friday night game in the Midlands.

Some idiots decided to let a flare off on the concourse before the match though, which sort of ruined it a bit for me.

Certainly was well over 1600, although by the time the Police had thrown out numerous idiots, it was a lot less by the end!

Ticket office said 1,600 on Thursday when I went in to buy tickets. Doubt we sold many more on the day?

As we were allocated 2000 tickets, looks more like 1800.

The lady in the West Brom ticket office where we bought our ticket last night said we had sold 1646 and returned 354. We bought 4 and there others behind us waiting to buy.
We, of course, got duplicates but were lucky to find 4 empty seats just across the aisle.

We were in a box on the half way line and on looking i estimated about 2000 and West Brom friends we were with agreed and said it looked like about 2000, so it was that amount plus 3 of us, the funniest thing was when it came to the last 3 minutes they went in to get a drink so missed there goal, though i really didn't find it funny at the time.

Lots chanting for Muric as Murik rather than Murich.

Need to improve our international linguistic skills now!
