During the last few visits in the late 80's/90's we had the upper hand.

They have had to do these prices as they have struggled the last 10 years to get big crowds.
go on then i,ll take the baitwe had sell outs in the prem when we first went up but i,d say we have struggled ever since mcliesh arrived.this year i cannot remember one league game been close to selling out.the euro nights i think we might have done on one of them.ticket prices for europa league.kids s/t 5quid ,adults with s/t 10quid .15 for non s/t.the club did us proud with them prices.annis in the prem under bruce some tickets for villa,man u,arsenal and chelsea been as high as 48 quid.
I wasn't being funny or sarcastic, I have been shocked that you don't get bigger crowds, you use to get bigger crowds years ago when you were not doing so well. Your away following in Europe was fantastic, this season.

think a few reasons for the crowds annis.the slump has hit west mids hard so the cash isn,t around and also apathy.too many false dawns.europe well i suppose it was the novelty factor.some lads may have gone abroad but not gone to home league games.to be honest the football hasn,t been blinding for years so whilst we have done ok at times its rarely been great to watch.loads better under hughton.your right before we went up in 2002 we,d get 20k plus then of course more in the prem at first.so what you say is true.a bad night for us both tonight.
