The Royals get a rare Berkshire away day as they kick off their pre-season schedule at Hungerford Town. Constant away-dayer and stalwart editor of The Tilehurst End Simeon Pickup joins the pod for his yearly visit to discuss the trip and a 5-1 victory for the Royals courtesy of a young lineup. Plus, Reading sign three players in a week! Ross analyses what Mark O’Mahony, Finley Burns and Matty Jacob could bring to the team. Meanwhile, Ben leads the trio through an international mailbag. Thanks as always to our friends at ZCZ Films for sponsoring the pod!Thank you to The Amazons for providing the theme song!  Follow The Tilehurst End on Twitter @thetilehurstend Follow Ross on Bluesky @webberross.bsky.socialFollow Ben on Twitter @mrblthomasFollow Sim on Twitter @simfrombucks
