Midweek games - who's happy they're back?

[Archie's penalty]

After mourning another away loss - thought I'd be positive. In three days we get the chance to turn things around against Wednesday at the Madejski. I for one am happy to see the return of more midweek games this year. They mean a team who is beaten doesn't have to ponder their inadequacies all week but can go out and prove their doubters wrong quickly. I think Reading will be really up for it after losing so awfully today.

Of course midweek games produce a better atmosphere as well. There's something more exciting about playing under the lights.

I won't be there on tuesday but I'm sure it will be fun. Who's with me?

[rfcjoe]

Yeah i do like a midweek game.

[Archie's penalty]

Any favourite midweek games that people can remember?

I loved the Stockport Reading game on the thursday in 1994. The atmosphere was great and spring was in the air. And we got a good point...

I liked Palace from a few seasons ago - 3-2 win with leroy unleashing an overhead kick.

Nope. Midweek games, battling through gridlocked Reading traffic, are about as much fun as being fingered by Russell Grant.

I've corrected it for you.

What if he swaps his hook for something phallic, like an aubergine?

[sam1]

Nope too as I work those nights. Although I'd love to see the reaction of the people this tues of people who sit near me as I've donated my ST to a large Ghanian gentlemen.

Reading 2-1 Sheff Wed 2002.

Arriving back in Div 1 with a great comeback. Jamie Cureton, what a bargain!

[KC Royal]

Doesn't really bother me either way as i can rarely get to midweek games!

Playing under the lights when there is a really good atmosphere can't be beaten. A few of the play offs and cup games from 4/5/6/7?? seasons ago were mental.

[tomrfcurz]

sheff wed on tuesday should be great, first midweek at home for a while so i hope everyone joins in, i doubt wednesday will bring a lot of support

I think he means the games against Wolves or the games against Wigan in 2001...

[Archie's penalty]

A resounding yes then...
