Reading away Tix on sale tomorrow

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

I drove & parked at The Swan when I was over for the 1st game of the season back in 2004.
I agree that it's a good option, but if you're looking to have a beer there afterwards be aware that the pub doesn't re-open after the match has finished.

If you don't mind a walk there is some residentailal free street parking about a mile from the ground. I have done this, not the nicest looking area but thats Reading all over.

Good shout - a lot around the Gillette building.

Also a Morrisons nearby and I have used them before.

Last year we parked at the Swan pub at 3 mile cross south of J11. Had an nice lunch and then walked for half an hour to the ground. The walk back beats all the traffic queues as well.
Thanks to Easy 10 for coming up with this last season.

Was that the pub carpark where Brighton supporters cars were damaged or broken into some years ago

Rather than the swan you maybe better off here as you can park in Whitley and it's a 15 min walk max....

You still have to get back to the motorway after in all the traffic

By the time you walk back the traffic will be as good as clear...If not have a drink in the bar as its got a great beer garden as well
This is the nearest pub/carvery to the stadium

Go to Foster Wheeler P & R - £5.00. Turn right at J11 instead of left to ground - no traffic problems before or after.

If coming by train then come out the town centre/south side of the station, turn right and go down the stairs for the football buses.

Any advice on getting the bus back after the game?

I found getting there easy, but return was a lottery and I ended up missing my train home when I tried it. I've always driven since!

Last season was about 45 min wait in bus queue and another 20 mins journey back to station.

think the bus transport is quite well organised. The trains home after the problem.

I used the Whitley P&R last season and while it was okay going to the ground the return journey wasn't so good. The buses weren't that frequent (I would say I waited half an hour for my bus) and then you are still queuing in traffic for a fair bit of time before the bus heads off to the carpark. All in all it took me an hour to get to the motorway. This season I'll go on my motorbike, it's so much easier. The beer can wait until I'm home in Shoreham

 

[edna krabappel]

Do not under any circumstances use the car park at the stadium. It can take well over an hour to escape afterwards. There's one on the industrial estate back towards the M4, which is cheaper than the stadium car park, and has an exit for away fans which is closer to the motorway than the original entrance.

I think it's the one listed on here http://www.footballgroundguide.com/...dium-reading.html#adirections-and-car-parking

For me, it was more a case of not knowing where to get the bus from or even realising that there were several P&R busses going to different locations. It made me realise why away supporters are often totally confused and wander around our bus park looking lost!

That is appropriate pricing. It is Reading.
