Wonder why Reading see Aldershot Town as their main rivals??Comment

This stems back to the days before Aldershot went bust and were a league club initially, before their subsequent rebirth and rise to the league again...
Reading were nothing special in those days, played at Elm park and they were a similar level, local and hate eachother.
I live near Aldershot and used to take in some games during college years and it isn't uncommon to hear them chanting "10 men went to blow, went to blow up Reading" (9 men, 8 men etc) for much of the game.
You note Aldershot also have Reading as their main rival, even though they have Farnborough Town about 3 miles away.Last edited by Del; 09-09-2012, 10:33 PM.Comment

Hilarious that Fulham have put us as their main rivals. But it's our 'cup final', right?Comment

It's particularly extraordinary given their geographical proximity to you know who.
My theory is that they've been bitch slapped by CFC so often that they can't bear to acknowledge them as their true rivals. Back in the 70s and early 80s Fulham were never remotely condsidered a our rivals. They had a sweet, twee image..... dear old Fulham....that kind of thing. CFC were always different story....Comment
