West Brom fans angry as they dub Coventry reveal an ‘utter disgrace’
West Brom revealed the ticket prices for their upcoming away trips to Norwich, Bristol City, and Coventry on Monday.
All three clashes witness Tony Mowbray’s men test themselves up against a direct play-off rival and could have serious ramifications in the race to land a top-six spot in the Championship.
The Baggies dropped points in three of their last four games heading into the international break and were left particularly frustrated by their 1-1 draw on home soil with relegation-threatened Hull last time out.
West Brom will therefore hope that they can turn their form around when they travel to take on Norwich on 29 March.
West Brom supporters left furious with Coventry away ticket prices
On Monday morning, the Baggies faithful were greeted by the news that Coventry are charging away supporters on Good Friday (18 April) at a rate of £37 for adults, £32 for seniors (65+), £32 for young adults (18-21) and £25 for under-18s.
West Brom have been given an away allocation of 3,000 supporters for their trip to Coventry, but Albion fans have been left less than impressed by the prices the Sky Blues are charging them.
One supporter wrote on X: “Those Coventry prices are an utter disgrace.
“Would’ve been a no-brainer but seriously considering not going now.”
BBC Radio WM’s Steve Hermon also weighed in on the situation and posted: “£37 for Coventry away?!
“I understand WBA asked Cov to lower their prices, as their supporters paid a max of £30 for the game at the Hawthorns earlier this season… but the Sky Blues declined the request.”
£37 for Coventry away?! 😳

Was considering Cov away to potentially take my son to a first away game… wow, don’t think I’ll bother for that price. Shame on Cov! https://t.co/HH2ZCgh1Yy

West Brom must get back to winning ways after international break
Coventry’s ticket prices may even mean that the Baggies will not sell out their allocation for their penultimate away game of the season despite the importance of the fixture.
West Brom can arguably count themselves lucky that they still currently occupy a Championship play-off spot despite winning just two of their last six league encounters.
Mowbray’s side have remained unbeaten since their defeat to Blackburn on 12 February, but it is vital that they begin to turn their draws into wins to land a top-six finish.
The Baggies are only above seventh-place Bristol City courtesy of their superior goal difference, so a slip-up at any point could lead to Mowbray and Co falling out of the play-off spots.
Furthermore, West Brom take on a fellow top-six hopeful in each of their next five games as they go toe-to-toe with Norwich, Sunderland, Bristol City, Watford, and Coventry so every game could be vital.
