Charlton Home Friendly Off

By Hob Nob Anyone?

Reading's final pre-season friendly, that was scheduled to be played at home on Saturday, will now be played away from home and behind closed doors. The Select Car Leasing Stadium pitch is currently not ready after work over the summer to replant the pitch. The friendly match will now kick-off at 2pm at Charlton's home The Valley. It is understood that the club will be automatically refunding any ticket purchases for the match, with the match being streamed free.
