How to creat a better atmosphere at the mad stad

6. Release a wild boar onto the pitch mid game.
7. Dog fighting at half time.
8. Big Clive running the book on the dog fighting at half time.

I'll prefix this by saying I'm hopelessly out of touch with RFC - but I really hope "Big Clive" refers to Clive "The Hound" Baskerville.

Anyone mentioned more drumming yet?

Big Clive Goddard the steward, still at RFC. Most (in)famous for being the one to shield Souness off the pitch after we beat Southampton (Pride of the South, lolz) in FA Cup at Elm Park.

What's tragic yet funny is how London Irish can have 25 designated pubs in Reading town centre, yet RFC don't like having drunken fans turn up and in the past even hired an undercover investigator to visit all the pubs in Reading town centre and monitor who was drinking where

More instruments to acompany the awesome drummer.

I propose they have an instrument day where everyone just brings what they have at home. Guitar's, dirty old trombone's, massive organs etc

Maybe, as part of Reading Football Club's brilliant and worthwhile commitment to eradicate all men from football, we could persuade the female staff at RFC to accompany the drummer in some sort of pre-match Glee club rally.

I know I'd be more likely to make some noize and back the boyz if I was able to watch Sara Jacob play the pink oboe in the centre circle before the match, while Annie Bassett parped on her rusty trombone.

Two drummers max. It cannot get and more Gary Glitter.

What were they hoping that investigation would reveal?

Football fans in having a pint before the match shock!

More inflatables to bang along to my favourite Reading song:

The Army!
*bang bang*
The Army!
*bang bang*

Oh dear, I've been saying 'Blue Army' with the people around me for the past 7 years. Silly us.

[Royal Lady]

Not sure if that's meant to be a whooosh there Glo, but it IS "blue army" - I think General B was having a bubble!

I think standing helps the atmosphere
, maybe a persistant standing day as i cnt see all 15,000 fans getting thrown out ! Other grounds where the fans stand the atmosphere has been cracking i.e spurs , southampton

Agreed. It's fine to stand at other grounds, and away fans at the Mad Stad always stand, so why is it only Reading fans that can't stand?

You might be on to something here. Someone should start a campaign about it. Or something.

[loyalroyal7]

Campain stand for 90 mins and sing ure heart out !

I think you should lead this campaign - it was your idea after all.

[loyalroyal7]

I am up for leading the campain and with a week untill watford have a chance to get people follwing on here even tho i know all the standing will only occur y26,y25 anyone have twitter or facebook to promote the campain ?

[Royal Lady]

Well, young man, I sit in the Upper West, right near Mr Madejski and I shall be standing up all through the game - so you have one follower already. don't for one minute think it's just Y25 and Y26.

[Rex]

Steady one there. Someone might drop a stitch in that jumper with such an outrage.

If you do start one be careful on twitter and facebook, as the club and old bill will monitor these for those attempting t do this.

[ruprecht]

Any man who attempts to stand / talk / open their eyes near me will get pointed at with my giant foam RFC hand and promptly booed at. Hopefully by then the nearest steward will have been alerted to my plight and you'll be treated like the common rapist you are.
