When are we playing the pre-season game against Wycombe?

[windermereROYAL]

All aboard for a trip to the states.

That's a good fixture. Hoping we get back to some decent preseason fixtures - not sure about others but the last 4-5 years have just felt really uninspiring in fixture terms

[parky]

We will have a friendly against Portsmouth at some point as well this summer, was part of an agreement if we both stayed in our respective leagues.

Thatcham Town (A). Saturday 26 July. 1pm. Reading XI

I'd love us to go and play Bath in Bath. Nice old school ground. Gives nice vibes. Great city etc.

Big plus one to that, used to love going to games at Twerton.

Had a Pre season XI there a few years back, was a good day out and lovely ground!

We're playing Thatcham and Basingstoke on the same day! Poor scheduling as Reading fans will go to both in decent numbers

Neither have big grounds, a few hundred Reading fans at each won’t really be an issue. We played at Thatcham a couple of years ago and there weren’t very many Reading fans there.

Whilst for obvious reasons I would love a USA preseason tour haha, sure the deal was struck too late if you will to get one done. Do think it will happen mind as Couhig would want to build the fanbase over here a bit I would think.

Brian Carey is currently in Ireland organising an Ireland pre season tour. It won’t be US this season.

Yeah as I said quite sure some other things were somewhat already in the works and that is fine. Do think a USA preseason tour will be done at some point mind.

Bloody expensive travel compared to local countries like Ireland, Scandaweiga, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium etc

Can't see it while we're in L1.

Perhaps not but know some League One teams have came over here in the past. Though yes not a normal thing.

Regardless, I think something Couhig would probably like to happen at some point but only if it makes financial sense to do so.

I am content if it does not, will just have to get my ass on an airplane to the UK haha.

[Royal Monkey]

Thought we might see a friendly away to Robbie Savages Macclesfield with the obvious links. Gotta go up that way to get a ferry to Ireland too ain’t they ?
