Reading Ticket Details

[Moonchesteri]

Good news. I don't want to give them any sort of extra boost for the match. And 7-8k fans would have been such boost I'm sure

[CITYSTEVEDON]

well i have my tickets in north stand for a change, so i will get the north standers singing

[sweeneymcfc]

is anybody sat around 110 bringing inflatables?

[CITYSTEVEDON]

have we sold all 1st and 2nd tiers now, as ive just had alook for some1 and the planner isnt there for the reading game. if we had, isnt it better to open the 3rd tier now, get as many in as poss

Given that we have now confirmed free coach travel for all of our supporters, and appreciating that demand could potentially go beyond this allocation, we immediately approached Manchester City to investigate all possibilities. Unfortunately, after discussions took place, this was not possible; City went on sale immediately after their game with Aston Villa, and a considerable number of seats in adjacent areas had been sold to City season ticket holders and their supporters. Bearing in mind the level of projected demand from their own supporters, City are not opening the top tier on the sides of the ground, but after discussions with their safety officer it is not viable to move supporters into those areas.

I'd imagine it the club couldn't handle it if they now decided to open the 3rd tier anyway. Reading would have to be given more tickets which would lead to a new problem - read the last sentence above.
Also, I would imagine many 3rd tier ST holders would be pissed to have been relocated only to find out later they would have been able to sit in their own seats etc.

well if thats true, its a poor showing by the club, and also a very bad showing by city fans who havnt come to the other games

Think the safety problem is more to do with opposing fans mixing whilst going up the spirals so the club should have no probs opening level 3 to City fans. They could of course open 1 spiral solely for the use of away fans to go up to level 3 but with it being late in the day I suspect the club would prefer to keep schtum on this and try to put the top tiers on sale as late as viably possible

its showing limited seats in north stand BUT i wouldnt believe it at against wigan it was showing as sold out apart from the back of the south stand and there were plenty of gaps on saturday.

[9secondlegend]

3rd tier open now.

[john@staustell]

3rd tier open now.

It's a bit unfair on people moved from the 3rd tier, but the club seems to have marketed it very smartly. May even sell out, which is more than we have in previous FA QFs or Rnd 5s. The attendance has always been disappointing.

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

Our best chance in years should be sold out without a doubt. Why on earth would you not come?
I notice Reading had another good result last night.
Hopefully they will be concentrating on promotion and will send a weakened team!

I wish sunday would just hurry the fuck up, got three 4ft dolphins today.

I'm retarded with excitement.
