Article about being a Reading Fan

by imwithit » 27 Nov 2010 18:35

I'm still cold from being at the Madejski.

I just read this article about being a Reading Fan when living abroad. I don't know where else to post it on here.

That's what I thought.

Mainly due to the fact that he said
I'm still cold from being at the Madejski.


And the article says
This weekend I’m watching Reading take on Leeds. I’m hoping for a victory three years in the making.

To clear that up, he is a mate of mine. I was at the game with him yesterday. Poor fella hasn't seen Reading score a goal since 2007.

Nice read and I have had virtually a mirrored experience here in the US. When Longy scored the first two against Villa in the QF, I did not hold it in however; I woke up Mrs Ark and virtually every other house in the street.

agreed, nice read. I would be in shock if I ever saw someone else here in a bar wearing any RFC attire.

When I'm unable to listen to a game, I always launch HNA and read through the match thread from start to finish along with the RFC website thread...good way to relive it a bit...

At least I saw them put six past the Posh last April. Hope to get back there in 2011.

To be fair, the way he described the Leicester game was the same for me, and I watched it in Maidenhead.

Let me know when he's next attending a match so I can put a bet on nil goals.
