    Thames Valley now and your choices are

    Oxford Utd
    Swindon Town
    Reading
    Wycombe Wanderers.

    Who would you support and why ? Or who would you not support even if they were the only team...

    We're moving on to South and West London in Part 4

    Reading I think-Process of elimination

    Definitely not Swindon-Several reasons why not-
    Oxford, went to their old ground and it was carp,
    Wycombe- Went to an away game with my son who was about 9 at the time and it was the first time we had seen City win away(didn't happen much in those days)

    For these I think it would depend which county I lived in

    Never went to the old Manor Ground but I'd opt for Reading too.
    Nice stadium and infrastructure. Went to the previous Elm Park which was a hole and we consistently lost there !

    READING stands out like a sore thumb

    what a poor bunch to choose from! would have to go reading seeing as they are the best team with the best ground.

    Reading is the only team from all of those above that has any appeal to me

    I'm surprised no one has gone for Wycombe seeing it was their survival that caused a certain other club to exit the league

    Nobody has mentioned Brentford and when I fly over Griffin Park on my way in and out of England I wonder how they support any football with such a stadium, yet alone Premiership standard.

    I think Reading, rather chew my own thumbs off than Swindon!

    Swindon Town for me, they talk like us, play in red & white and are called the "Robins"...nuff said.
