2000/2001 Season:
Last season Reading did the double over Swindon to claim the full six points. At home Reading comfortably beat Swindon 2-0 - our first game of that season at the Madejski Stadium. Away from home a single goal from Jamie Cureton in March won the points:
27 March 2001: Swindon Town 0 Reading 1
19 August 2000: Reading 2 Swindon Town 0
The home match was the first time the two sides had met since Reading were relegated from the First Division.

1997/1998 Season:
Our games in the 1997/1998 season in the First Division saw a share of the points with both sides winning away from home. We won on aggregate though. :-)
17 January 1998: Swindon Town 0 Reading 2
16 August 1997: Reading 0 Swindon Town 1
