Reading's stadium of intimidation

[readingstockport]

Seems that it's not only BHA that are being frustated by wanky neighbouring councils. Wokingham council have appealed against Reading coluncil giving permission to RFC to expand the theater of 'intimidation'.

Oh yeah!

I forgot one GOOD team played there.

Does give me a bit of a dilemma this, as I live in the Wokingham district. It would not bother me whether Reading get extra seats and with what is going on with Brighton I should back their corner.

But I hate Reading with a passion so it made me

It's not as if they will go out of buisness if they don't get them, is it.

And it is not like they will FILL extra seats once the FLOATING fans go back to Chelsea et al when Reading start losing again.

They will get them though, Majedski doesn't seem to have problems pushing things through. The advantage of having a stinking rich chairman with clout I guess

Exactly,small appeal and away they go.

"Council opposes stadium expansion


Plans to enlarge the Madejski Stadium, home to Premiership Reading Football Club and London Irish RFC, have hit a stumbling block.
Royals' bosses want to expand after a strong first season in the Premiership.

But Wokingham Borough Council has raised formal objections to increasing the stadium capacity from 24,000 up to 38,000 seats."



. . . . . . and the Political hue of Wokingham Borough Council, or do we not need to ask?

Oi, my garden is quite prety right now.

The proper London Irish play in Sunbury. The team that plays in Reading is the result of a merger between London Irish, London Scottish and Richmond that obliterated years of rugby history in one fell swoop and is the rugby equivalent of MK Dons.

No offence intended, though
