Re: Fans Forum with Ince and Bowen next Thursday

Thanks to those who attended in person or by zoom. Yes, we did have some tech issues on zoom, sorry about that. Tricky to make these things work as hybrid live and zoom events. We're not doing a 'transcript' this time - you have to be there for the full monty - but there is a report on the STAR webs...

Last week of Museum exhibition!

'Collected' - the exhibition of 150 Years of Reading FC' - at Reading Museum closes next Saturday 13 August.

It's open 10am-5pm Tuesday to Saturday and you might well need 45 mins to get around it.

There's not likely to be another show like this for many a year!

Re: Twenty’s Plenty

Pretty sure WBA charge away fans £20 already. STAR understands that a couple more northern clubs might be coming on board too. We made the point in a radio interview this morning that we’ve seen a shift on this now because the club has withdrawn automatic reciprocal pricing and because STAR has enc...

Re: Sir John & Steve Coppell Statue

Something like this would need a bit more than ‘looking into the cost’. You can’t just pop into your local statue shop and pick on up..... IIRC There was a suggestion to put a Robin Friday statue up sometime ago. Became obvious that it would be incredibly expensive with all sorts of extras to consi...

Re: When will Star hold the owners to account?

There's a few things that are going the way we'd like to see, potentially. Not least staying up! The return of Mark Bowen - we hope he will act as the spokesman for the football side of the club and fill in that communications gap. Brian Carey might tighten up the recruitment process and bring it mo...

They are really big on cocaine usage. Is this a recent problem within football grounds? Went to a match at Millwall - in the home stand :shock: - couple of years ago, state of some people - and the toilets!
