Bill Oddie To Be Guest Of Honour At Wembley

Bill Oddie, Bill Oddie, rub your beard all over my body! Every Reading fans knows the song, every Reading fan loves the song!

There have often be calls for the the man himself to be invited to a game at the Madejski Stadium. Oddie knows about the song and regularly tweets his support for the Royals so it is something of a mystery why he's never appeared at a Reading game.

Come on READING, show Man Utd how to win the cup. My beard is bristling at the prospect. Reading fans know what I mean.
