Ady Williams left the Royals in our Elm Park era, and returned when we had moved to Madejski Stadium - and he enjoyed some remarkable success in the second spell!
Promoted to football's second tier again in 2002, as well one of the all-time great games in this venue a year earlier in a play-off semi-final against Wigan... just some of the memories that Ady shares with us.
Now a regular attendee as a member of BBC Radio Berkshire's coverage of the Royals, we caught up with a veteran of 399 Reading games from up in the commentary position ahead of our 500th game.
We hit that landmark figure this weekend against Burton... and it's just £5 throughout the stadium for tickets, so act fast to get yours.
