THERE might not be much to celebrate on the pitch at the moment, but football fans will be over the moon about a new exhibition.
Reading FC is 150 years old this season, and in that time have played at the highest level and some of the lowest.
Regardless of how this season ends, the Royals – or the Biscuitmen for those with long memories and sweet tooths – will be a proud part of the town’s story.
To celebrate, Reading Museum is organising a special exhibition, which opens next month. Appropriately, it will be in the Sir John Madejski Academy.
It will feature rare memorabilia, and a chance to look back down football’s memory lane.
The free exhibition opens on February 19, and runs through to August 6.
This means that the Reading Festival exhibition is coming to an end. Its curtain call will be on Saturday, January 15.
