Secondly do Reading still charge just 20 quid for away fans this season ??

Finally yes you guessed it

Engineering work is taking place between Barnes and Strawberry Hill / Feltham, closing all lines.

Trains between London Waterloo and Windsor & Eton Riverside / Reading will divert via Hounslow.

London Waterloo circular services via Twickenham will be revised to run between London Waterloo and Shepperton.

London Waterloo circular services via Brentford will not run.

To help you complete your journey, replacement buses will run between Barnes and Teddington / Hounslow via Richmond.

Paddington for me and that journey is much easier from East London this time next year.
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Their Journey Planner suggests from Waterloo to take tube to Paddington and train from there !!!
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Easiest away game of the season - the only one closer than a home game - and normally one of the cheapest for me and junior although Cardiff and Norwich are giving them a run this year. Missed it last season due to it being in the HT and we were away.

Also I quite like the Madejski - good view and plenty of leg-room.

The National Rail Enquiries website shows Sutton-C.J-Reading for me is quicker than going via Paddington and it's only £12.95p return with a Network Railcard. :sorted: Happy days. :bound:

I agree with your last sentence but would add I find it very steep. Good for the view but hard work to climb especially with no hand rail.

I quite like this. One of the better newer grounds IMO

First time I got tickets for the Madstad, my seat was about 6 rows from the back. Not good for one that suffers from vertigo as a very steep rake! I spoke to a steward at ht and I was allowed to sit in the lower tier for the 2nd half. Much more comfortable for me.

Getting to park reasonably close to the ground can be a nightmare. My solution is to drive to Henley (easy drive from Hatfield) and get the football special bus using my wrinklies bus pass for free. Parking in the station car park at Henley is quite cheap at weekends and free on bank holidays.

Park by the fire station and do the sky walk...

Can anyone provide a lift from north harrow or north hillingdon area for one for Reading please. Will share fuel and parking if necessary. PM me please. Cheers.
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Easy game for me. Train from virgina water. Enjoy reading away. Decent ground and pub right next to the station. Also, reading afterwards is a good late night out afterwards (when we win)!.
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Ordered two. :)

I’ll be away but the shadow and her other half are going! At £10 each, its a steal! :cool:

Pretty crap since it's a Saturday game and £20 for ST holders and members. We should be taking more than 2,000 down the M4.

Always driven in the past, but going to let the train take the strain from Sunningdale for this one!

:sorted: :sorted:
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Just booked up 2 tickets.

Couldn't make the last two trips. Last went in the playoff season and seem to remember a stressful afternoon. I think there might have been a late Ipswich goal.

looking forward to this one. Hopefully we can do the business against Bolton first

Is it pay on the day? It usually is.
My boy might be playing in Ringwood KO 11.00, so could be a mad last minute scramble.
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Me + 1 still to buy (maybe + 2). Hope someone's keeping count here.
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

x3 from Somerset, Devon......... (and Surbiton)
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

It depends how many home tickets they have sold to the left of the away end

I mean towards the left when you are sitting in the away end
 

Reading (a) Sat Jan 20th

Going. Don't need another 3 points for this one. Already got 9 this season, so will be driving like an ol' tart for this.
