Owls fans snap up ticket offer

Last updated : 30 April 2008 By C. Morris

Sheffield Wednesday fans have taken advantage of a reduced price ticket offer for the final game of the season against Norwich City on Sunday.

SWFC announced earlier in the week that adult tickets in all areas of the ground would be slashed to £10 with concessions at just £5.

This prompted large queues at the ticket office over the past couple of days and the club have today confirmed that the game is a sell-out.

Although Hillsborough will not be at it's official capacity due to the closure of the North/West corner area, the crowd is expected to be in excess of 36,000.

It is a crucial game for the Owls as a win will guarantee their Championship survival while any other result will leave them relying on results elsewhere going in their favour. Norwich are likely to be in a more relaxed frame of mind as they secured safety with victory over QPR last weekend.
