Why have you got so defensive about him slating Wigan?

Is the level of self hate that bad on here?

They are a tinpot club, that is as close to a fact as you can get without it being actually factual.

Everybody get what they applied for?

Happy here, one is on standby but got three out of four.

Harsh way of doing things but doubt there's another way.

Five out of five for the rest of our group but unfortunately I fucked up & missed the ticket sale for those with +3, I phoned the box office on Friday & they couldn't even add me to the ballot :banghead:

Boom, 3 out of 3 and mates got 2 out of 2. So no dilemmas about who is going.

Arsenal are utter retards giving out a time for the ballot results and releasing details early. After last year sitting on my pc for nearly 3 hours I will be logged on at 9am clicking through to the ticket site expecting it to open up before the advertised 10am.

2 out of 2 for me. Just wondering did anyone NOT get what they asked for? I think some tickets will go to reds with a high number of attended matches - it won't be the free for all like Wigan last year but not far off it.

It won't, anyone that never got one was out on standby so if people don't take them up on Mon those on standby will get a chance, if those don't take them up then the Silvers are next in line.

One of mine was put on standby so I never got everything we applied for.

There was more tickets last year.

"Reading FC will not charge any additional booking fees, and will not charge for postage"

........ and for the price of loyalty having already paid over £1000 for my ST I get stiffed an extra £4.40:

"If your registration is successful each ticket purchased will incur a booking fee of £2 per ticket and a postage and packing fee of £2.40 per booking"

Last year they did silvers + 12 matches attended and reds + 25 matches attended or something like that at the same time didn't they? So I think Reds will get some?

Still feel a bit hopeful, Reading announcing that from 30th its TBC, suggests to me that if theres a lot left they may come to us. Think thats how it ran for Wigan, its hardly likely that Reading will start by saying they dont want their full allocation, after all.
