is anyone doing yeovil cant seem to find a train back or is there just one?

try going back via castle cary. Tempted by both of these.

Anyone been reading before and know what it would be like getting back to the station for 22.15?

Extremely risky............unless we are getting tonked and leave early

Especially as it's a 20:00 kick off. I'd say nigh on impossible if you left at FT

roseandcrown

maybe give it a miss then. thanks for the replies.

You have to laugh, we would not take 2k to Reading on a Saturday never mind a Tuesday night

Amazing how things change so quickly.

In 2009 we took 2,066 to Colchester for a Tuesday night in League One.

Four years on and a division higher, you would laugh at the suggestion of taking that a similar distance to Reading.

He's right, though. Colchester was also a new ground. The restrictions create extra work and in these cases aren't necessary.

Didn't we fill in the following mid week away as well? I think they were promotion rivals but it wouldn't happen this season.

Do the club really think we will sell 2,000 tickets for an evening kick off at Reading?

But This is the best bit, NON SEASON TICKET HOLDERS will be rinsed for an extra £2 thanks for that, great incentive.

Trains are pretty frequent from Paddington (literally every 5 minutes). Some stop everywhere and take ages, the quick ones take 25-30 minutes. The latest one you want to be getting is about 6.30, that gets you into Reading for 7pm then you've got a good hour to get to the ground.

Why 10.15 though? Looking on national rail there's trains from Reading back to london up until midnight

I need to get round to liverpool or fenchurch street to get home to Leigh on Sea and last trains are 12.30 or 12.50 depending which station.

Mate I might go to this by train and I would be hoping to pick up the 11.45 to Hockley, you will easily get the 12.30.

Re the Yeovil game, was thinking of going but I'm 61 with bad knees (got no medical certificates or such like) and can't stand for the whole game, it seems if you are a concession ie 65 you are allowed to sit in the stand, but in my case I won't. Am I'm reading this correctly? Any advice etc

You can sit in the stand. Ring the club and buy stand tickets, they let me.

Cheers Red7oaks, have now booked in the stand with no problems.
