I love midweek games!

better than being stuck at home doin paperwork in the evening, the only shame about them is.

Away supporters never bring enough fans so there isnt enough banter, part from that im glad they are back.

I am glad mid-week games are back because due to work I have had to give up my season ticket seeing as I work on saturdays. :( So evening games I can actually go to, so long as I'm not put down to work that is. But the majority I can get to.

Problem is if I work in the evenings I have to work 5-8 so I have to listen to it on the radio on the way home.

Blackpool at home? On a Tuesday night? In the cold? Midweek home games - a day at work followed by a battle through Reading's poxy traffic - are a particular pain in the @rse and I am sure that we are all like a coiled spring waiting for this particular fixture to take place :roll:

Of course it is thanks to the nonsensical amount of World Cup qualifiers against third rate nations who should be forced to pre-qualify to play against the likes of England that we have this bottleneck of fixtures due to the plethora of international breaks. Which idiot scheduled a fixture for midweek in December though :x ?

I'd rather sacrifice an evening to watch Reading v Blackpool than a Saturday.

Midweek games are the pits of the earth.

Kids are too young to take, which means I don't get to go either. :evil: :evil:

I enjoy the midweek games. They happen here at lunch time and I can tune into Reading World and listen to the radio broadcast.
