Easy

 

[ABEEE]

Nice and easy Away day to get too. Love it

 

[Banana]

What a draw. Can't wait for this one.

 

[LostBee]

Take that - will be a good turnout for sure!

 

[BS7Bee]

Perfect. This is the only one I wanted as I can probably make it.

 

[Edmundo]

Will we ever get a home draw again?

 

[Adam]

Will it be the w/c 7th?

 

[londondude]

Another club that we hate.

 

[DaveP]

what a draw!

 

[Griffin]

Lovely stuff

 

[Glen_Bee]

Very happy with that plus local. Just hope we get a decent allocation so I can go! Put out a similar squad to last night and we should be through.

 

[davido_i]

Great draw, after Brum another to bring back so many memories….

 

[kaebess]

Does Chelsea stay Friday night ?

 

[Turkish]

Excellent. Boom. Let’s bring the noise!

 

[Glen_Bee]

Their capacity is 25,000 so surely we’d get at least 5,000 which we should sell out?

 

[Wids]

And with this draw and Chelsea’s, our home game against them stays on Friday night now ?

 

[TonyGMan]

Love that, local for me and another reminder of the old days (although maybe that was Elm Park)

 

[GABS]

Just hope we get a decent allocation so I can go!

They'll have a crap home attendance. Could give us the whole end behind the goal if needed.

 

[jlove]

Closer than the Gtech for me! We’re in.

 

[BeeInSW19]

Well, Bees, I think it's time we take over Berkshire again!

 

[Banana]

That's an orgasmic draw. Cannot wait. Probably gets 5 TAPs however

 

[TW3Bee]

Great draw.
One of the two I wanted.
Should get a load of tickets too.

 

[Ashford Bees]

Great draw. We should easily take 5,000 or more if allocated.

 

[JFisher97]

I remember going to this souless bowl on my birthday in 2019 and losing 2-1. I've had better birthday's.

 

[Friji]

Good draw, hopefully we thump them too.

 

[bexleybee]

Another club that we hate.

Are we going to collect all the 90s rivals in this cup run? Orient in round 4?

 

[Banana]

Great draw.
One of the two I wanted.
Should get a load of tickets too.

We're gonna need 10,000

 

[Untouchable]

How many thousands did we take in October 2001?

We should double that easily.

 

[BigMarv]

Any idea when the date, at least the week, will be announced?

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

BFC take as many tickets as you can get your hands on.

 

[maddogging]

I hope common sense prevails and we get the first midweek match days…..

 

[jlove]

That's an orgasmic draw. Cannot wait. Probably gets 5 TAPs however

5 TAPs? 5 goals will do!

 

[Banana]

Any idea when the date, at least the week, will be announced?

No. We just have to wait before we use our Oyster cards

 

[Banana]

5 TAPs? 5 goals will do!

How we ever scored more goals than TAPs?

 

[Judio1999]

It will be 8th or 9th
As we play Chelsea the Friday of 2nd week

Oyster ??
Surely Reading is outside zone 6

 

[BeeInSW19]

I feel another 'Southampton gate' coming on

 

[Hippobee]

Time for some Jamie Cureton payback.

 

[Jay Bee]

Their capacity is 25,000 so surely we’d get at least 5,000 which we should sell out?

They're only obliged to give us 2,000 but assuming they won't sell out home ends it can be anything by negotiation.

But, they have tended to give smaller away allocations lately as they also have home section in that end.

Don't be surprised if they are stubborn and say it's 2,200 max or something like that even with thousands of empty seats elsewhere in the grounds. Reading friend says " For the cup the whole end is sometimes allocated".

 

[Jay Bee]

I feel another 'Southampton gate' coming on

Someone said that about Rennes....didn't sell out

 

[TW3Bee]

Any idea when the date, at least the week, will be announced?

Will be on the Tuesday, as we are at home to Chelsea on the Friday.

 

[filmyfan]

Small club again

 

[ruislip bee]

It will be 8th or 9th
As we play Chelsea the Friday of 2nd week

Oyster ??

Lizzy line goes there.

 

[Ashford Bees]

Give us the whole end, we’ll fill it.

 

[hanwellbee]

It will be 8th or 9th

Oyster ??

Buy a return to Reading from West Drayton and use Oyster for the rest.

 

[ABEEE]

What’s the maximum we can get for allocation ?

 

[LP_Brentford]

Should be a good one this, nice and fairly local for many of us…At least 4000 please Reading.

 

[Banana]

Will be on the Tuesday, as we are at home to Chelsea on the Friday.

It could be the week before

 

[Simon C]

How many thousands did we take in October 2001?

We should double that easily.

I've still not had a better birthday than this....

 

[LP_Brentford]

What’s the maximum we can get for allocation ?

Around 4300 I think

 

[Banana]

What’s the maximum we can get for allocation ?

10% of their capacity so 2,400
