We have enough long journeys up north in the league, if we are going to be away lets have something reasonably local. Gillingham would be quite nice.

Yeah, as much as I’d love a trip to Highbury, a home game v Woking would be nice (no disrespect) but a game to shelve the C1871....Woking would fill the entire Southstand.

Glad you are thinking the same way as me and OMA.

This'll be the same Woking that average around 1400 per home game and the town has a population not much more than Wokingham :?

There’s no thinking necessary.

Woking will bring their entire footballing community, day trippers and all, they will need that 4k space.

We, on the otherhand will barely scrape together 8k.

Irrelevant anyway, it’ll be Preston

Ideally Woking away of course but I'll take a Fleetwood or Oxford away too.

Jackson Corner That’s not how I remember it. My memory was he had been caught by the old bill was being escorted around the pitch right in front of the Reading fans who ran down the front. One ding fan climbed the fence straddled over and booted The Plymouth fan in the face, and jumped back in to the group. It was one of the funniest things I have ever seen watching football. It was a proper old school day out loads of ding on a soaking wet open terrace. Dylan scored and we believe the first ever player to pull his shirt up over his face?


That happened as well, but was a separate incident. There was a lot going on that day!

Was a good 800 Woking fans at Swindon today. Well drilled organised physical side. Only had two shots on target and one was the headed goal from a free kick. Be interesting to see Reading play them. As would pose a challenge given our lack of urgency style of play. Similar to the way that Swindon approached the game today. Did them no favours and created little in the way of clear cut chances.

If we get a smaller side, I would always prefer to get a home tie mainly out of the smaller club benefiting from the financial aspects of larger crowd money.

I've just looked at the fixture list and have changed my mind - it will now be either Swansea or Forest at Home as we play them either side of the 3rd round.
