Tony Pulis’ men are competing in the Premier League Asia Trophy and are next in action on Saturday in the third place play-off against Crystal Palace.
Chairman John Williams confirmed today that the die-hards who made the long trip will be able to enjoy drinks at the team hotel.
He will be joined by chief executive Martin Goodman and director of football administration Richard Garlick in greeting the away travellers.
Dean Walton is one of those who made the trip to cheer on his side.
He was one of the first to be contacted by the club and is delighted with the gesture.
