According to BBC:

Quote:

Reading have been granted permission to extend the capacity of the Madejski Stadium from 24,045 to 38,000.

The Royals submitted the plans earlier this year and they have now been approved by Reading Borough Council for work which will start in summer 2008.

Don't mean to be funny(and I'm not deliberately trying to belittle Reading here) but would they really fill a ground which has a capacity of 38,000? And I know they have had a great first season, but if it goes tits up next time round or in the following seasons, won't they look a bit silly if they are only getting 20,000 in the Championship?

Esay the way RR is gaining weight.

boro_boy · 25-05-2007, 21:40

He could lose a stone or 2 by having his ears pierced.

johnny_S · 26-05-2007, 00:05

doubt it would be a good move

used to live in reading, and im sure greater reading ie including all the little towns and villages around 35miles square miles only has a population of about 200,000

I also think this will be a bad move, you would think they would wait a while and let the team settle in the Premiership. This could have been a lucky season. I would personally give it a few years.

bad move a stadium of that capacty for a team that could easily go back down would not work

Kolo · 26-05-2007, 11:22

how the new stadium might look

Middlesbrough No1 Fan · 26-05-2007, 18:13

absolutely pointless..they had a good first season..i see them in a relegation battle next season after they have sold all there decnt players in this transfer window..like wigan did

boro_boy · 26-05-2007, 18:27

Yeah they will definitely be in a relegation battle. IMO they have just had one lucky season, they need to buy some more players for them to progress further, but I doubt they will be able to sign any top players.

i think it will get used for other events as well, like concerts to get more money in
