Reading. Elm Park. March 1997.

Cold, wet, bleak, the most horrible away end in football history and gobby little Reading s**tes before, during and after...

Went 1-0up Adams (pen).
Eadie hit post and side netting.
Jackson missed open goal.
Andy Johnson injured and had to come off.
Trevor Morley scored from a jammy overhead.
Reading won 2-1 Adams (OG) in last few minutes.

The spawny little Reading chavs went into overdrive. And there's me, living in Bracknell at time, going home amongst them.

The one bright point? David Rocastle gliding over the Elm Park mud like the Rolls Royce footballer he was. How I wanted us to sign him!
