Royals and Racers Next up on Friday 19th December home to Hull at Aldershot FC KO 7pm in PL 2 Cup.

Would've gone to this, but it appears Aldershot is a bit of a ball-ache to get to and from on public transport, given I live in West Berkshire. Google reckons it would be quicker to get home from Coventry than Aldershot :lol:

The public transport is a problem because nothing lines up with each other and the lack of trains towards West Berkshire from Reading at that hour, so I'd be waiting for a prolonged period for trains unfortunately.

Came on as a sub on Saturday and impressed.
Interesting that he’s the 5th Bradfield College pupil to get a pro football contract. Can’t be many private schools producing footballers, much more rugby and cricket territory.
