Did anyone go to the Reserves Premiership Champions Game?

by Royal Boil » 28 May 2009 23:58

Back in 2007 when we as the Southern Champions played the Northern Champions Bolton and beat them 2-0? Thought not, because there were only about 500 people in the Mad Stad that night. It was quite the Champions League final with a hastily erected platform on the pitch and possibly the only time we'll ever see a fireworks show at the end of the game. The best bit for me was when the announcer screamed "Premiership Reserves champions for 2006, Manchester United. Premiership Reserves champions for 2007, Reading!" Not that it means much right now, of course...

There were about 4,500 there and I remember it being a bit chilly....

Nice to beat Bolton - especially with 2 goals from set pieces.

Always nice to see the hooped ones win a trophy whatever. I'll never forgive Aylesbury.

Yes, we were there...so what if it was "only" the reserves? It was still an enjoyable evening and a good performance.

I was there, and there were definitely more than 500. Was an enjoyable night, but then I'd been to quite a few reserve games that year.
