Owls opt to close Kop for cup tie
The managerless Owls made the decision to shut the stand due to slow ticket sales, which saw more than 460 supporters re-located last week before sales were discontinued.[LNB]"We have to justify the expenses and it costs a lot of money to put a football match on and that has to be balanced from the income we project from the game," a spokesman said.[LNB]"Last week, the sales had been very slow for the Palace match, particularly in the Kop, so it came to a point where a decision had to be made."[LNB][LNB]
