RoyalBlue Programmes £6!!!!
My son said that the stadium was way more than half empty with 5 minutes to go.
Tip to get away quicker. Catch a Chiltern Line Train from Wembley Stadium to Denham or Gerards Cross.

Perhaps you had seats on the opposite side of the stadium to Wembley Stadium Station?
My son was home soon after 10.30pm.

Royalee What a load of rubbish.
Royalee Lovely stadium, great acoustics to keep the noise in. I was 7 rows from the back of the third tier and could see perfectly, so I can only assume you need to get to an optician pronto.
Royalee Of course people will leave early as people have generally travelled a lot further to get to Wembley (from all over the country) as opposed to the Madejski, and it was a friendly, get over it.
Royalee As it happens, I left on the final whistle and didn't hang about and I was on the underground at Wembley Central before 10 aftewards. I can only assume you went out as slowly as possible, so what did you expect?
Royalee As for the quality of football not being as good as at Reading, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL.

I went last night and it was a fantastic experience - enjoyed it more than I have any of our games this season.

Of course people will leave early as people have generally travelled a lot further to get to Wembley (from all over the country) as opposed to the Madejski, and it was a friendly, get over it. I'm sure if it had been an important qualifier and it was close then people would have stayed.
As it happens, I left on the final whistle and didn't hang about and I was on the underground at Wembley Central before 10 aftewards.
Huntley & Palmer In what way pricey? £15 for my ticket, £3-50 for a pint which actually tasted better than the shite they sell at the Madejski. If you are stupid enough to eat there then you deserve to be ripped off

Man Friday ...and it made me appreciate Reading...
Our stadium - Wemberley is too big and you're too far away from the pitch to get a good view and feel involved. A good view at the Mad stad wherever you sit.
The atmosphere - often rubbish at the Madejski but even worse at Wemberley last night
People leaving early - bad at the Madejski but terrible last night. People were starting to leave after 78 mins. By the 85th minute the stadium was half-empty
Getting away - Trying to get away from Wemberley (and get on a train) made the problems with the Mad Stad seem insignificant.
Idiots - one minute silences always observed at the Madejski. Not at Wemberley last night.
The football - In the first half I was genuinely thinking that Reading play better than this.
Food/drinks prices - High at Madejski, ridiculous at Wemberley.
Queues for food - even worse at W - staff seemed to be on a go-slow.
