Reading's home game with Birmingham City postponed
Football
Reading's home game with Birmingham City, scheduled for 1 October, has been postponed because the visitors will have three players, Barry Horne, Jason Bowen and Andy Legg, away on international duty with Wales. A new date has yet to be arranged.
The World Cup qualifier between the former Balkan war enemies Bosnia and Croatia has been moved forward a day to 8 October. The Group One match, which will be played on the neutral ground of Renato dall'Ara Stadium in Bologna, Italy, was brought forward to avoid clashing with a Group Two qualifier between Italy and Georgia in Perugia.
