If this game was being played on Saturday without Sky cameras I would predict a crowd of over 7000. What will it be on Monday? 5500? I'd like to think Reading will sell at least 1000, NRE & mainstand nearing capacity so should still be 6000+ |

I would agree with the 7,000 plus if on a Saturday.
If Reading sell out their allocation (not sure how many they've sold) I think we'll still see 6,000 +. Twitter account put out that Main Stand and NRE are running low on availability now.

Would be surprised if Reading don't sell out, when was the last time that they visited? Would surely be a new ground for a lot of younger fans
Personally disappointed that it has moved as I can't justify the 4 hour round trip on a Monday night so will settle in front of the TV to watch instead

How much cash do we get from Murdoch's propaganda outlet for this particular match ?

Yeah it's now owned by Comcast in the US and its output has changed direction from the Murdoch years They still won't be getting any of my money & I asked the question as I wonder if the income from Sky will cover the shortfall in the gate receipts ? Figures of anything between £10K-£100K are quoted dependent on the actual League & timing of the coverage |

We must get something to cover the 'disruption' of moving the game. |

Andy Carroll has gone to Amiens in France so he definitely won't be there.

We were 2-0 up at one stage and I think we missed a penalty when it was 2-2. Possibly Martin Butler played for them following his transfer. |

Only 5 tickets left in the NRE should be another good crowd. Going for a narrow win, with Knibbs (of course) to score for the Royals.

Perhaps unadvisedly I'm quietly confident about a win in this one
