Reading efl tickets

[Glanders]

Fancy a change from my usual seat for the reading game, but only tickets in certain areas of the ground have been released. Assuming season ticket holders have until a cut off by which to reserve their seats, does anyone know when the rest of the ground is likely to become available?

I applied for my ST seats in Lower West and was told that area or block is not being opened. so had to settle for seats in the next block It would appear that it is the central blocks only being opened.

I had a similar experience when I rang on Tuesday afternoon to book mine. It would seem that at certain times the Ticket Office outsource to outside agencies, and l ended up talking to someone in a call centre in Manchester.

The guy got terribly confused when I told him I wanted to reserve my season ticket seat in W1G, saying that area of the ground wasn't open, and in the end admitted defeat and transferred me back to the ticket office at the Amex, who booked my seat for me.

 

[BensGrandad]

Mine is W1B

 

[Glanders]

Cheers for that - guess I'd better book while I still can!

I am guessing this is such a low interest game they are releasing areas one at a time.

When I tried to book on Tuesday, there were only two small central blocks available in the lower west. On Wednesday, the other blocks were available and I was able to book the seats I wanted. 10,000 maximum there I think.

We are trying new seats on the east side however if our fans came to this game in there droves the club would open all the seats.
Priced for adults at £12 should be sell out in the old days.

Boring opposition I hate all championship ties in cup games.

Is it PoTG?

 

[BensGrandad]

I expected all Lower west to be available so all STH in there could have their seats and upper west just book a seat in lower. The same with east.

When they said "season ticket holders can claim their seat' they didn't actually mean their normal seats.

It seemed only WSL was available when I booked.

I think that this is the case. Our regular seats were/are not available for sale and so WSL we are booked in. No idea who sits there normally.

I'm sure it will be

In my recollection, there were nothing like 20,000 attending.

Silly question I suppose but will it be possible to watch the penalty shoot out ( if there is one ) and get a SASTA train back to Brighton ?
