Swindon on the other hand is a lot more pikey. In fact you sir are a pikey more than most coming from Swindon. You hate Reading because they are more successful than Swindon on the pitch and off it in terms of club economics. We have a nice ground, great training facilities, a really good FA Academy, bigger fan base etc etc. Reading FC has massive potential and Swindon has none! and you hate Swindon cos they have history which your tinpot club hasnt and will never have. Swindon are more successful on the pitch than Reading as they proved by beating Arsenal in the League Cup Final. You might have more potential which is debatable but you will never realise it.

apparently, there are 1000 tickets left for pay on the day - so i think we've sold about 2000 ish? (dunno exactly how big your away end is, but seem to remember it being near enough 3000) should be a decent crowd anyhow!

You're a joker Rich. Reading has lots to do in the centre, but obviously London has a little more to do. True, should still be a decent away day though. We've nearly sold out our inital allocation of 2,156 and are apparently applying for the full 4,000 tickets (doubt we'll sell that many though !! )

Well the first meeting since we thumped you 4-0 on the last day of the season in May. But times have changed and both clubs are on the up. We are undefeated at home and even though Derby have turned things around, I still expect us to get all 3 points. My prediction: Reading 2-0 Derby County i think it could be more than 2-0 mate - we have no fit centre backs! It'll come down to two main things: 1. Can we get Albrechtsen & Leacock Fit. 2. Can we learn (in 3 days) to defend set pieces - we havent been able to all season, and you lot are awesome at them. We have only kept 1 clean sheet all season & you score goals for fun so we're in for a tough afternoon. 3-0 to you is my prediction! I think you'll find i was spot on! A game of few chances really, we missed 3 good chances, you took 3 good chances! In terms of football there wasnt THAT much between the sides - the big difference was Bikey, Doyle and Hunt (who were a class above!) and your quality at set pieces! You're fans are fucking shit though CAV!
