Reading are taking more than 500 supporters up to Wigan Athletic on Saturday- selling out the initial allocation- despite the off-field unrest at the club.

Thousands of supporters invaded the pitch on Saturday against Port Vale, getting the match abandoned and raising the profile of the club's plight under 'tyrannical' owner Dai Yongge.

Fans are determined to continue protesting against the Chinese businessman, with the club on the brink, but it has not stopped supporters from travelling the length of the country to back the team.

Only four clubs have averaged more than the 1,200 that the Royals have had following them on the road, with a trip to the DW Stadium a staple trip over recent seasons.

Tickets are now off-sale online but are available on the day in Lancashire for no price increase.

Derby County are the next club to visit Berkshire, facing Reading on Tuesday evening in RG2.
