Hoping Reading win the playoffs. Least likely of the 4 sides to survive in the Premier League IMO.

Just watch the highlights and see the large gaps in the south west.
To be honest, I don't know why this thread was even started. So what if they don't sell out ? The fact that they are not going on 'general sale' will make a difference.

Maybe you should check these things out before slagging other fans off
I'm not slagging anybody off, unless disagreeing is slagging off in your book, and I have yet to see proof that the games weren't sellouts. I seem to remember quite a bit of segregation which would result in less tickets being sold.

Since when has the word 'TINPOT' been a compliment ?

Not over 2.5k worth of segregation though.
