Take a trip back to one of the most memorable eras in Reading FC history with Old School by Roger Titford.

Blending football, personal memoir and social history, Old School looks back at Reading’s record-breaking Fourth Division title-winning season of 1978–79, while also reflecting on life in Britain during a period of major political and social change.

Written from the perspective of a young Reading supporter, the book captures the character, atmosphere and unpredictability of football in a very different era — from muddy pitches and packed terraces to the wider changes taking place beyond the game.

A fascinating read for long-standing Royals supporters, football history fans and anyone interested in the culture of the game.
