PATRIQT Is there a football bus that runs down Berkeley Avenue?
Apart from the obvious reasons for not wanting to live in Coley, it's location is crap, and football is either long walk, or 2 buses each way. I'm hoping I can grab a football bus and half the messing about?

Elm Park Kid I mean, yeah, just walk it. By the time the bus has crawled through the traffic is it really worth it?

RG30 Additional fare increases as the club are no longer subsidizing it https://www.reading-buses.co.uk/fares-and-tickets/football

The Quiet Man Feel free to correct me but it looks like a single matchday return is now £7,50 and a single £5.50. It was £5.50 return a game last year. It is now £5.50 for U19 return. So for me a increase of £2 per match for me from £5,50. That is a pretty hefty increase.

Silver Fox That's a massive increase, makes you realise how much the club must have been forking out (or Reading Buses are taking the piss)
Don't know why the government funded £2 to anywhere single doesn't apply for the football buses?
To help people with cost of living pressures and save on everyday travel costs, the government will also provide up to £200 million to continue capping single bus fares at £2 outside London until the end of October 2023 and then at £2.50 until 30 November 2024 – when the government will review their effectiveness and future bus fares.

Because it's a football special type service there's more than likely bound to be some small print that specifically excludes these fares but someone should push back on this and at least ask about it.
