I'm guessing those plans to expand the Madejski to a capacity of 38,000 are now on hold?

"Gates will drop, of course, but I wouldn't be surprised if they still hold up around the 20,000 mark," she said. Maybe. If they are in the top 4 all season. Otherwise there's no chance love |

Apparently the Reading fans (I was told by one) have stuck posters around Coppells parking space and are protesting later to get him to stay |

Those pictures of their support on say a lot.
Can anyone remember Reading coming here with any numbers at all, let alone the amount they had at Derby on Saturday?

Could be we won't be playing them for a long time yet. Could well be seeing us promoted next season & Rrrrrrrreading going down again. Thereby the natural order of things is restored

I've been checking out some attendance stats from 14 years ago, when Reading were at Elm Park, when both of us were in what is now the Championship :
Reading (Finishing 2nd, lose in PO's) Av Att 9,350
STFC (Relegated under McMuck) Av Att 9,744
So despite we getting relegated, we still had a bigger attendance than them....and they claim to be the bigger team !!!
