Mr. Chow Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Plus I think a lot of people hate the band. They irritate me to death According to Reading's forum (http://hobnob.royals.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=123490&start=40), they have shifted 650 tickets for tomorrow are they paying £10 or full price?

marshy Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Kop is really tin pot these days.... Does the kop mean anything anymore? Yes it does. It's the cheapest part of the ground to sit it, so it means an awful lot to those who sit there. me included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 when we charge £10 to away fans and they dont sell out, I always have a think would we sell out if it was us going to reading for £10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we would. We nearly sold out last year at full price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HirstWhoScoredIt Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 31,817 tickets in home end. Including the segregated area there are about 5,200 tickets unsold. Therefore they have sold about 26,617 in home end so far. Maybe 700 from Reading? so 27,317. Looks like being 28-30,000 to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 love my seat on the Kop, wouldn't sit any where else. UTO I know a few a few people like this. Even when cup tickets are same as same price in North or South they still prefer there own seat on the kop. Always think its a bit odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked online and 4,170 remain in home areas and with the segregated areas you mention that is about right. Can anybody clarify if it's right that approx 500 seats in the North and 500 seats in the South are used as segregation as a standard practice? It would appear so.

shandypants Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I sit on the Kop. I can easily afford to sit elsewhere (I have disposable income you see) but I like where I sit. You have to be cool (but I'm not interested in being cool) or a wannabe "boy" to sit in the "Cant" - an old friend of mine sits on the "tastey" part of the North and he couldn't knock his way out of a wet paper bag. You have to be polite or actually dead to sit in the "Old Man's" stand. No, no (is that the new "Grayism"), its the Kop for me. It may be "tin pot" but it'll do for me thank you very much.

ViolaOwls Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Segregation- manc derby, afew rows, scouse derby afew rows, swfc v anything from leeds to Torquay, end section of side stands netted then 2500 seats in a bottom tier and end sections of upper tier and not forgetting 1300 seats in NW corner....amazing!! Before we go on about not selling it- Norwich 2008 last match springs to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before we go on about not selling it- Norwich 2008 last match springs to mind Correct. There was Wycombe 2012 but accept that was a bit different due to their small following. SYP clearly have safety over kill compared to the rest of the contry after a certain event and we and even the other team in our city have to comply by it.
