Anyone know the latest? How many left?
Should sell 2,300 tickets especially with the new signings.

Go on Stoke!!

When I got mine on Thurs there we're a few left but not loads. I'd expect a sell out even if it is a bit of a trek.

SCFC direct didn't have many seats going, very few with two together. I'm not sure how it works on there as I got ours on day two of sale and there's only 500 P+ so even if the other 495 had booked tickets it still didn't appear that many were available. |

my son got our tickets and he thinks that out of the blocks available each block was being sold and filled before the next set of seats went on sale..

from the three guinees you can walk to the bus station and its a 4 quid return fair......
if your driving there is a harvester on the basingstoke road near the ground (dont park there thought the little f**kers from the local estate will steal anything if its not bolted down......
will be a top day and I imagine your will sell ur allocation so will be a good atmosphere to.......
ps we looked very good against palace today....but then i suppose northampton would look good against palace XD

Jimbo,
Where do you suggest away supporters park?
Can't bloody wait, should be a cracker - the bookies just have you as narrow favourites ATM, but that's because we're normally dreadful away, but things are looking up!!!

How long does it take walk from the train station? its about 4 miles but the buses are great .... never ever get any trouble at Reading especially as stoke and reading always get on....... the buses will be much better option than walking :-) ps it takes the buses about 30 min to get to the ground because of traffic but its best to leave the town centre at 2pm :-) |

We are traveling down by car sat whats the best way to get to the groung from the three guineas you have mentioned? I wasn't living down here then, but the other away pub is the one Jimbo below mentions, The Harvester (similar idea to our own, I suppose): www.wheresbest.co.uk/venue/115645/Harvester/As he mentions, there are shuttle buses for fans from The Three Guineas (you couldn't walk it, Stokieboy, unless you're one of those Olympic walkers!). This is the away pub for every game, so it's normal for both sets of fans to be on it. If there are 3/4 of you it could be worth getting a taxi (not far), and the taxi rank is also right next to the station (see above map). There will be a few of us, but I'm happy to go wherever... Jimbo - can't wait, mate!  |

Last time we played at the MadStad I parked in a multi-storey about a mile from the ground on the main road between the ground and the M4.
Is that still an option?

The Hobgoblin on the high street is a wonderful pub with a fantastic range of real ales. Not sure which pub the London Supporters have decided on yet, but I am sure it will be this one

Not sure which pub the London Supporters have decided on yet, but I am sure it will be this one It's no longer called the Hobgoblin.  It's now called 'The Alehouse', but not too much has changed. Luke, there are loads of shuttle buses that leave from right near Reading station pretty regularly. |

Always worth popping to Sweeney and Todds for a good pie and a pint.
The Moderation is a good pub if you don't fancy the town center and it does a good Thai curry.

Sweeney & Todd's does do a good pie, but the town centre is more for home fans on match day; not that they are in any way a problem and are a nice bunch. The Moderation is a lovely little pub as well. Wherever we all fancy, I suppose. |

Was that HP (formerly Compaq/digital) Worton Grange offices (I used to work for them), think the offices may have shut down but looks like the car park is still open, they use it for London Irish games www.london-irish.com/Madejski.ink |
