Black Country Derby ticket information released - with a warning

Wolves have warned fans that ‘additional ticketing and safety measures will be in place’ ahead of the Black Country Derby at Molineux this month.

While West Brom have already sold out their allocation for the Championship fixture - the first Molineux meeting between the sides since 2021 - home tickets are yet to go on sale.

However, while confirming the first of four ticket windows will begin on Monday, Wolves did so with a message to supporters.

A club statement read: “Given the significance of the fixture, Wolves and West Bromwich Albion have been working closely with the Safety Advisory Group, local authorities and West Midlands Police ahead of the game.

“Additional ticketing and safety measures will be in place, with both clubs operating controlled sales processes designed to ensure tickets are purchased and used by eligible supporters. Tickets are not transferable and supporters must remain in the designated home or away areas. Anyone found attempting to access, or being in an incorrect area will be refused entry or ejected and may face further sanction.

“Enhanced ticket checks and security measures may be in operation. Supporters are reminded that disorder, pyrotechnics, missile throwing, discriminatory or unlawful behaviour, and entering the pitch or trackside areas can result in arrest, prosecution and club sanctions.

“Both clubs ask supporters to attend safely, behave responsibly and follow the instructions of stewards and police officers throughout the fixture.”

Members who attended five or more Premier League home matches at Molineux last season will be given priority, with a window open to them from 9am on Monday and Tuesday, September 7 and 8.

The second window will be for members who attended one or more Premier League home matches from 9am on September 9 and 10.

It will then be open to members who purchased their membership before August 1 from 9am on September 11-14, with the final window being from 9am on September 15 onwards to fans who attended five or more home Premier League matches last season.
