What are the odds on seeing this in Reading again in my lifetime?

Should we be reporting you to the police?

Congratulations on having one of the many replicas in your living room. The FA have a handful I believe, for promo's and the like.

Sorry.

Not really. They do have a few of these that they use for different events and so on. If you have THE cup, great, what an honour, but how sure are you?

Think your curtain rail may need fixing.

I cant believe we managed to win 49 games in a row to win it.

There are several "versions" of the cup in existence but these all have the relevant sponsors name on them e.g. Carling, Barclaycard. Jack Walker also had one made for Blackburn. There is just the one Barclays Premier League trophy in existence and it comes complete with two security guards! This the trophy that subsequently went to Match of The Day that evening. It is used by Barclays to promote their brand and is currently in India. I won it for a day in a competition and it is the same one that I held last June in Manchester. Friends and family were delighted to see it and the boys and girls and my son's football team were very excited. Check out the Reading Chronicle or Henley Standard this week. I just hope we are competing for it again next season! URZ!
