A*: STH at Gillingham.....

Slightly more seriously, lots of people seem to enjoy the #Together concept when it's an abstract one. When it involves putting yourself out to support the team then it gets forgotten. I know there are plenty of people who travel a good way, and fair play to them. Travel options are not easy tonight. But if we have only sold around 4k tickets (exclusive of 1901) then it suggests, by definition, we have a lot of fair weather fans.

The fact that the crowd will be small means getting away afterwards should not be difficult. If you live in Brighton or Hove then 25 bus is perfectly feasible for most, with a change. If you have a car, then it should be easy to park somewhere like Bevendean and hop on the 25 bus. Like I say, I accept for people travelling a long way who don't have a car available tonight, it's a pain. For some people, though, the transport looks like an excuse not to come.

It's everyone's choice to come or not, of course. But in the end, we can't, collectively, claim to be committed fans if we don't turn up to home games.

#Together.

from a personal point of view

Although I would love to go tonight, finances dictate I can only go to a couple of matches a season - am I not allowed to be a fan anymore?

Playing 4-3-3 by looks of it. Or 4-2-3-1. Baldock and Manu out wide, should be interesting.

I'm not going, pathetic I know but if anyone wants to pay for my flights, let me know!

Its not the money, not the reserve team. Its Southern Rail that was the decider. That and with a homematch coming up on Saturday.

I wonder if any of the lads fancy getting some revenge in for Liam. Any news on when he's expected back?

Kermorgrant, the player who injured LR, isn't in Reading's squad tonight.
I think I read LR is out for about 2 months

So, despite not wanting to watch Reading's reserves and not wanting to spend money that could be put towards my mortgage, I also have a very valid reason of having a job conflict I'm still a fair weather fan?
