Footy fans mad for Madejski
Football fans have given Reading’s Madejski Stadium the thumbs-up. In a nationwide poll of 3,000 supporters, commissioned by property consultants Drivers Jonas, the Reading Football Club ground emerged as the fourth favourite stadium in the country. The respondents’ overall favourite was Old Trafford, followed by Manchester City’s City of Manchester and St James’ Park of Newcastle United. Madejski Stadium also came fourth for comfort, view and ease of access (leading was Hull City’s KC Stadium).
The Madejski was ranked first for the quality of the range of goods - ahead of Chelsea! - but fifth in the number of toilets (Hull were top of the toilet league).
However, not all good - the Madejski is seen to have the most overpriced food.
