Albion slash ticket prices

Albion are hoping to recreate the carnival atmosphere from their 5-1 thrashing of QPR when they return to The Hawthorns next week.

The Baggies have made their home game with newly promoted Blackpool a week tomorrow kids for a quid in a bid to attract a bumper crowd.

Clubs are allowed to run ticket promotions at several home games each season and Albion are hoping to take advantage of next week being half term by getting more youngsters in to watch the clash with the Seasiders.

The promotion comes hot on the heels of Albion hosting their biggest crowd of the season so far against Rangers when they slashed prices around the ground for both adults and children for a game that was televised live on Sky.

The visit of Blackpool is the first of two home games in five days for the Baggies, who also entertain struggling Norwich City on Saturday, October 27.

The ticket offer for the Blackpool clash is open to under-16s all around The Hawthorns, with tickets scheduled to go on general sale today.

Normal matchday admission prices apply to adults, seniors, under-18s and students.

Of Albion's international contingent, only Slovenian duo Robert Koren and Bostjan Cesar were in action in the weekend's qualifiers.

Both played 90 minutes for their country as they battled out a home draw with Albania.
