Had the joy of a fa cup semi final a couple of seasons ago and struggled to find one proper fan from the Reading and arsernal fansBarring their club anthem, does Reading fans have chants? They're dead quiet, I would say the Arsenal of the championship but they'd take that as a compliment.
Their funniest song was 'we've got the record, 106'. I think we were supposed to feel inferior, but we could only laugh.
I don't buy this "when we were shit" business. We're playing in the Championship - that's all. We're not in the Premier League, just knocking on the door in the second tier yet every season we've been in this league at the Amex our attendances have been phenomenal - the renewal rates for STs is exceptionally high. And this is great news IF we go up because match tickets will be in huge demand but there's so few of them that we won't get many day-trippers and glory-hunters. Our stadium will be full of proper fans who have been very loyal as they do now even though we've won nothing yet.
Where were you when you were shit? Look around the ground and pretty much all of us have been here for years.

Do they? They have one song as Quinney rightly points out.Ironically, arsenal create a great atmosphere away from home, that's where the similarity with reading ends.
When Arsenal came down here they only sung when they went ahead and had one song.

They sounded loud to me in the family section. I thought they were singing before they scored but didn't they score in the first minute anyway so to state that they only sung when they went ahead was not a valid point.Do they? They have one song as Quinney rightly points out.
The best bit was when Knocky signalled 2-0 right in front of them
HILARIOUS
