'Cheaper than Leeds' - West Brom fans see funny side over £100k Nottingham Forest ticket gaffe

Football fans get a raw deal when it comes to ticket prices - but spare a thought for the Nottingham Forest fan who was eager to watch his beloved Reds at the Hawthorns.

A Reds supporter on Twitter was eager to book his seat for the Championship clash later this month only to discover that he was going to be charged almost £100,000 for the privilege.

His post captured plenty of attention on social media as fans from the Baggies saw the funny side of what was clearly a ticketing gaffe.

And here's what they had to say...

Al: "Still cheaper than Leeds."

Kieron Gibson: "We've got a few outstanding payments due from Barcelona, Palace, Al Ittihad etc for players they have had and not paid for. We need to improve the cash flow. Sorry!"

AJ: £20k is plenty.

David Cutts: "We'll still sell them all."

Jay: "Just do it. Worth it to watch Karlan Grant live."

Sarah Kerton: "Wait til you see the admin fees."

Jack Morley: "Got to fund for a new striker somehow."

Andy: "Super mighty best team in Yorkshire Leeds would charge more."
