Youngest Ever Fan At Madejski Stadium?

Is this an early Madejski Stadium record? Quite possibly! Among the 22,000 odd supporters at Reading's first ever game at the Mad House, the 3-0 victory over Luton Town on 22 August 1998, was none other than Ben Collins. Why amazing? Because Ben was just 8 days old.

Now that's the first way to bring up a kid. And here's Ben pictured below in his Kingsley Royal baby suit with parents Alan and Bridget:
