W&E Royal I've got a good one, Reading 4-1 Swindon 02/10/1976. Old Division Three.

I was actually born on the third though.

my God I remember that season too well. I was already 15 ffs.

We went more or less top with that result.

And ended up relegated.

I thought by your sensible posts that you were a lot older, say 35ish. Wise head on young shoulders!

Fubar According to Soccerbase, when I was born, Reading FC was on holiday cos' of WW2! Bummer...

likewise..........
But my most memorable birthday game was Brentford 1 - Reading 1 2001/2002 Div 1.

Double cause for celebration......

Yeah, i looked at the table on Soccerbase and noticed we finished 4th bottom, Swindon didn't have a bad season.

Three days after I 'arrived' we lost 3-4 @ Accrington Stanley

- finished 6th in the 'old' Third Division.

Eldest two have late July birthdays - Youngest's in November '02 - nearest game I could find was H win 1-0 vs Watford - Kevin Watson scored.

A 3-2 away defeat to Rochdale for me...69/70 season.

Being a June birthday there was no game for me. However, I was born in 1988. We were relegated that year......and they year I turned 10......and the year I turned 20........Another reason not to look forward to my 30th.

2 days after my birth

English Division 3 (old) Rotherham 1-1 Reading 03-05-1980

Last game of the season which after only winning 1 of the last 9 saw us finishing 6th

Need time to go backwards now getting too close to my 30th for my liking!

There actually was a match on the day I was born.

We lost it, 1-0, to Coventry.

Mad Dog's Ghost · by **Mad Dog's Ghost** » 04 Mar 2010 12:49

1 - 0 win over Southport, 18.1.69.

Son was born day after our 4 - 0 defeat at home to Arsenal.

It is amazing how I can recall the details of many games mentioned – England v Ireland, watched it in Union bar, Poly of Central London, Port Vale away 78/79 crowned Div 4 champs that very day – yet can never remember where I've put my keys.
