Lost picture already

Since 2016, we have championed Twenty’s Plenty. However, despite our best efforts, very few other clubs in the Championship have followed suit in their pricing strategy. That has resulted in our travelling fans routinely paying well in excess of £20 for the privilege of watching the Royals on the road, while opposing clubs’ travelling fans have all paid £20 or less to follow their team to the Select Car Leasing Stadium. For clarity’s sake, clubs are only allowed to charge away fans the equivalent price that they charge their own supporters in a comparable section of their stadium. So by keeping matchday ticket prices so low at Reading, we have also been committed to keeping prices for visiting supporters at the same level. In 2022-23, adult matchday ticket prices will, in some sections, be elevated slightly above the £20 mark – meaning we will now be permitted to set the equivalent price to away fans. However, every Championship club will be given the opportunity to offer their fans £20 tickets when their team visits RG2…but only if they commit in advance to a reciprocal arrangement for our loyal away fans in the reverse fixture.

Does anyone? Pre sale tickets went on sale this morning, hope anyone interested got theirs

This is a much more realistic problem, I would also imagine it is a very delicate scenario in getting the best for Baker There are not many footballers (or sportsmen) that retire due to a an injury like this and can imagine that there will be a large amount of publicity not only around the way we handled him throughout but also the bigger risks in sport will no doubt be massive news as well. Just my personal opinion but I would be very surprised to see Baker in a football shirt again, but as he has another year with us there certainly isn't any need to rush any process, especially is getting him back on a pitch again meant he was more seriously injured in the future

Gastershire lol

Interesting line ups for the Adam Stansfield charity fundraiser at Yeovil this afternoon (2pm ko) May be of interest to some in that area?

Excuse my ignorance, but how do Liverpool affect Derby financially?

Just noticed they're on Jools Holland this weekend

Funny you say that, I watched a video last night of him listening to a lady busking and then spoke with her after, thought I couldn't imagine many people being like that. When he was with KP he was often around Weston as his legal team were based here, I'm told that he always had time for anyone that treated him civilly

So they take a contactless payment then issue a ticket?

I forgot how shit the ground is without all the temporary seats

Great first ball

I set it up many years ago for us based in Weston because most Saturday mornings I would get the same message asking if the train was on time, where were we going for a pint etc etc, so it was easier to all chat in one place Over time we have added friends that we go to home and away games to

Just saw they won 3-2 on penalties after a goalless draw Ebbsfleet away on Sunday now to play the winners of Dorking and Oxford City

I'm guessing it was a mutual friend in our WhatsApp group? ?

Was easier just to look for the answer myself. I'm surprised at how low some of these crowds are

Assume Bradford would be top for the home crowds?

Judging by the fact the recent womens game at the ground was advertising the high sales for weeks / days before the game and on the day the club were massively under stewarded and also caught out with only originally opening one entrance I would say that there is a very high chance things will go badly Personally I would get there in plenty of time if you want to see kick off

Some brilliant news this afternoon

Sky sports news are showing an in depth interview with LJ on the show this morning, talking about him getting back into the game

Excuse my ignorance but I am not familiar with the numbering for disabled areas, but if it is at the front of the lower Lansdown stand then yes it will be open I know Jerry is very busy at the moment, no doubt he will pick up your post shortly

I believe @TomF is working on something behind the scenes at the moment

Who would have thought Somerset 10/0May 12th, 11:15 Early signs here detect a slow pitch with not too much on offer for the bowlers, with Chappell and Higgins settling in with the new ball. Matt Renshaw has played one rather flashy drive that scewed away past backward point for four.

I'm baffled too - I have messaged him to ask lol
