It's been a long time coming getting back home to the Madejski Stadium - but Saturday is just round the corner now!
Four weeks have gone by since the Royals last entertained the Madejski faithful - and it's felt like forever! But the wait is almost over as Brian McDermott readies his troops for Saturday's showdown against Fulham.
We took to our social network channels to see how you, the supporters, feel about the homecoming and what you love most about home match days - and we received an excellent response!
Here are a selection of our supporters' replies on
