Saaaaaaaammmmmm
Winchester Royal
Saaaaaaaammmmmm 4,000 sold and that's just individual ST holders

Given we're entitled to over 9,000 seats, taking just 5,300 seems a bit odd


The allocation in the League Cup is up to 10%, but it's 15% in the FA Cup. I'm not sure how corporate seats affect this but we appear to have about 9%.


Yeah but Coventry

In 2012 it was 15% allocation for away fans. Its 10% now.

I would've gone but, I've been to Brighton previously, not an enjoyable away trip. Also we played them about two weeks before the game, I'll take Arsenal away over Brighton any day

Haven't been to any of the previous rounds don't really care if people are pissed off they can't get a ticket because of the current season ticket exclusive period. You can demand the club give priority to those who attended the previous round but the club is always going to show preference to the ones who spend £375 up front at the start of the season over those who spend £10-15 for a EFL Cup ticket.

In x 2 yesterday for me and Dad.

Brighton's just a bit too far to get to for an evening game without taking time off work. Did Plymouth and MK though.

I don't understand the sniping - a tenner to watch Reading play in one of the best and arguably the easiest grounds to get to in the country. Whats not to like?

got 4 tickets in the home end behind the goal. Obviously means I have to deal with sitting next to Hugo and Tarquin and their city boy mates, but sure it will be worth it.

I wasn't, You can go online on their ticket site, select then tickets and then it prompts you to create a membership. Took less than 5 minutes to select seats, create membership and buy tickets.

Although you are put into a queue to select seats, which took about 15 minutes.

Isn't that where many of their tickets go on other match days? That and the Surrey borders.

They'd probably be more suspicious of someone ordered with a north London address

No one here is complaining we didn't mate.

Just the fact we sold 390 for Brighton but nearly 3000 in 2 hours for Arsenal! Why can't Reading fans turn out and support the team for less attractive games...



Oxford United average more than us ffs:

Partly down to the fact they took 4,000 to MK the other week (with many Chelsea/Liverpool/United fans from Oxford going for the day out) and that they're in a new division for the 1st time in years.
