It's around 670 sold thus far - so just under 1,000 left. I'm sure sales will take off after our win tomorrow.stealthpapes wrote:Looks to my untrained eye that there's quite a few left.
From my personal experience, our away followings since Covid days have been better than they were pre-Covid days. I've been to places like Bolton and Wigan away on weekends when we have taken <=500 fans. After Covid, it definitely seemed to pick up a bit which was strange considering how poor we have been since the return of fans. Some atmosphere when we played Stoke away on the opening day a couple of years ago, Barnsley during the same season was excellent as well.Clyde1998 wrote:Seems we've sold just over 1,000.

i think our away following has increased because club 1871 has grown too. the away games I've been to seem to have alot of them in attendanceYorkshireRoyal99 wrote:From my personal experience, our away followings since Covid days have been better than they were pre-Covid days.

The situation this season is admittedly different with fans protesting and some may be fearing that we might not have a club left so they are making every game count (unlikely we won't have a club though).
I think a factor is a lot of our support who started watching Reading around the mid-2000s have reached adulthood in recent years - and are therefore able to go to away matches regularly; a latent effect of us reaching the Premier League. We could see further increases in the next few seasons as people who started watching us around our last Premier League season (2012-13) start to reach adulthood.YorkshireRoyal99 wrote:From my personal experience, our away followings since Covid days have been better than they were pre-Covid days.
