Reading still not a sell out?

[RFC_Bobby]

That was a couple of seasons back, the evening game. Was amusing, he was decked out in the Reading kit right down to the socks.

This started out as quite amusing at first. A fat guy in a full kit getting lots of attention from away fans. It quickly (after about two games) became annoying and distracting to the point that most fans just wish he'd stop the whole "look at me" act.

Think you're missing the point. Away fans moan that the Amex is a nightmare getting to and from but it's no worse than every other ground and I find the Amex better than most clubs.

The Amex has rail, bus and road links, all modern compared to our northern neighbours, where they're still getting used to the wheel and pointing at things

A bit like the QPR fan with the sombrero

Think that was their official busker, to pay that imaginary FFP fine.

Tickets still available.

Slightly off topic but didn't think it required ANOTHER thread.

What pub are we going to takeover for this one?

All of them in a 300 yard radius of the station?

If true then that is piss poor and a shambles. Earlier it was said we'd sold 3200 odd.

Why would they be selling tickets at the other end of the away section if we have not sold all the away section. R27 is the corner of the away section and I have R32 at the other end. The South Stand capacity is 4350, so I really can't believe we have only sold 2511 tickets

They have probably not sold the front 9-10 rows of each section, they've done that before. Then again, the remaining tickets on sale now are the front few rows of R31

I've got two tickets in R28 so we've obviously got the whole end in which case we've sold a lot more than 2500

I can't afford to go to every away game.

.

This should be put on 12' banner and put on display every time someone shows their 'displeasure' at failing to sell out an away allocation

I think you may be right. I noticed around the earlier part of last season the club started to cover seats in the front seating areas unless there were loads of away fans. Before, if the whole block would be open and fans could just sit and go anywhere. Now they are forced into the upper parts of the stand - not really sure that's necessary.

I guess the remaining seats being sold are now at the front as all the ones at the back have gone, so they are now moving to fill the section nearer the pitch

Yep. Even still, selling R27/28 through R32, discounting the front rows is still well over 2.5k.

Any news on whether or not Reading will make this POTG?

Im giving this a miss because
