Shame that no further Wheelchair tickets have been released alongside this enhanced allocation

Am very surprised that they are not @RaspberryRed assumedly we now have access to the full end - both sides of the divide behind the goal

Surely there is the same number of disabled spaces in this additional side as the original ?

Can anyone who's been before advise on what parking is like around the ground?

Last year I think I drove past the ground on my left and a little further along there was a large field/car park for about £5. Was a short walk to the stadium but at the wrong side for the away end. Any better options the away side of the ground?

That was exactly my point when contacting them.

All sorted now as the confusion had arisen as Reading did not send any further wheelchair tickets with the increased allocation.

They are available from Reading directly by calling (0118) 968 1313

Well I know of 15 who are paying on the day,hopefully quite a few will decide to go at the last minute and boost the final figure,3500 would be fantastic,fingers crossed.

Not sure if mentioned anywhere else but I didnt realise that Cardiff are away to Fulham away on Sat.

They have sold a similar amount to us for their game so the trains and service stations are going to be interesting!

Assume that you realise lots of fans travel EVERY Saturday on the same trains all around the country?

Don't think the trains will be a problem with South Wales services stopping at Patchway(and not at Bristol Parkway)

Then non stop to Swindon not stopping at at Bath or Chippenham

City fans who live in the Bristol Parkway area

I suggest making your own way to Filton Abbey wood

and get the local train to Bristol Temple Meads

and start your journey from BTM

If you want table seats get into coaches "E" and "F" as they are the unreserved coaches

Just glad I ain't gotta visit any of the M4 motorway  service stations

Seeing as we are taking similar routes to our away games which is rare, there may be some trouble.

Dont quite understand your patronising response as clashes still happen. 

Because over the years we have travelled on many similar routes during a season and nothing happens, just because we are going in a slightly similar direction it doesn't mean anything will happen this time.

Fair point to make just don't get why you had to be so patronising. I think the fact that because they are bigger followings its more likely.
