Seems like he was looking out for you at Wigan away. Strange behaviour, given his remit from Methven on scouting players. He should have had his eyes on the pitch.
Reading mid-table, 4 points from 3 games. Another good indicator of form this season. A draw would be OK but if we lose there may be suspicions of the old inconsistency. Playing up to the better teams and beating them is of limited value if we come unstuck against 'bread & butter' opponents.
Financially, Reading are completely on their arses. They have done well to survive in L1. Another lunatic foreign despot of an owner, allowed by the useless EFL to ruin a great English football club.
I’ve got my ticket for tomorrow . It looks like a full house in the away end - superb stuff. If Global is on the look out, I’ll be wearing a cream linen jacket from John Lewis. A bit like the Man from Del Monte
I’m not able to do this one but once again incredible support from the fans. I’m going for my usual 1.0 cheeky yellow shirt win.
I'm going to this, whats the best way to get to the stadium by train? Heard its a pain in the ass, does the new lizzy line help?
Use that line, it's very useful. There are shuttle buses from the station, be there by 2 and you'll be on time for the game.
Yes it goes to Reading. I believe it is the end of the line. Remember to send a copy of your ticket to Reams.
Do not get the Elizabeth line. The cost is the same as GWR, but it takes twice as long. It costs around £28 return. Catch any GWR mainline service from Paddington - they run fast to Reading and it takes 25 mins max. The stadium is a £10 taxi ride from the station. It is unwalkable. Book the return cab as well, as it’s a stampede after the game.
Kojak, the Eliz line works for a lot of people, certainly from South and East London. A down side is that the Eliz trains do not have toilets I'm going to have problems tomorrow on the train back
I’ve used the Elizabeth line more often than you have fallen over p issed coming out of Spoons The Reading service stops at a lot of places in Berkshire / Maidenhead. It is slow. Hence the advice to get a GWR from Paddington.
