Reading's facilities last night

Parking was a nightmare, it seemed there were essentially two huge car parks, with one tiny entrance. Took about an hour to queue into the car park.

Fortunately they opened another gate after the game so it only took about 45 minutes to get out, was on the M4 by 11.00.

You queued for an hour to get INTO a car park?
More patient than me!

Food for thought from their place.

Positive: They opened the doors for fans to go outside and have a half-time cigarette which was taken up by numerous Blues. Stewards stood either side of the door and checked tickets of people coming back in. Because of this, there was no smoking in the toilets and no Stewards having to take abuse at trying to get people to stop.

Negative: Half of the Staff in the Kiosks were selling beer and half of them weren't because they claimed they weren't allowed to until the whistle had gone! The Pies also weren't ready.

Easy to let away fans out to smoke when there are only a couple of hundred in the first place.

Imagine letting 40 odd thousand out to smoke, as I assume that is what you are inferring should happen? Apologies if its not tho!

I couldn't see any other alternatives and it was nearly 7pm.

One half interesting answer amongst a plethora of piss taking from people about as funny as Bo Selecta.

a) We had far more fans than a couple of hundred there
b) Not all 40,000+ fans smoke and want to smoke yet we have numerous entrances to the ground

I parked 10-15 minutes walk away and I was home at 11-15pm in Southampton ;o)
