Club formed in 1871

It is purpose built on the very outskirts of Reading, close to the M4, and the complex even boasts a hotel attached to the back of the West Stand. So if you have plenty of money and don't fancy the journey home, or if miraculously you have pulled inside the ground.... 

The stadium is of a fair size and is totally enclosed, with all four corners being occupied. Three sides are single tiered, whilst on one side the West Stand is two tiered, including a row of executive boxes. The ground has been designed with the supporter in mind as the supporters are very close to the pitch and the acoustics are good. The stadium also now has a recently installed video screen on the South East corner. The Madejski is e asily one of the best stadiums in the Championship Division and wouldn't look out of place in the Premier League. 

The stadium, named after Reading's multi millionaire chairman, is shared with London Irish Rugby Club and was recently voted as having the best facilities for disabled supporters in the League.
