These are the latest odds given on another forum as to the probability of a town being given CITY status this year. It seems to be decided that some award/s will be made.

I put it up as Reading are the favourites!!


Reading 8/1
Doncaster 10/1
Guildford 12/1
Middlesbrough 12/1
Omagh 12/1
Dover 12/1
Bournemouth 12/1
Luton 14/1
Colchester 14/1
Tower Hamlets 16/1
Aberystwyth 16/1
Ayr 16/1
Milton Keynes 20/1
Stockport 18/1
Coleraine 20/1
Bolton 20/1
Dorset Town 20/1
Blackpool 25/1
Croyden 25/1
Southend 25/1
Ipswich 25/1
Stevenage 25/1
Wrexham 33/1
Swindon 40/1
Goole 40/1


Are you agreed that the Queen will probably give the town city status?
Would you in fact like Reading to become a city?
What about the other names on the list?

I signed the partition yesterday and was part of the event #vibrantReading at Shehnai on London St. (who even know that place existed?? - I didn't, but then I have only been in the TOWN for 13 years!!).

Great discussion with lots of energy...let's see what comes from it!!

Interesting side note, that loads of people had Reading FC being a Premier League club (and winning it), winning the FA Cup and Champions League in their 'five year vision'. Some even had us signing Ronaldo and having Pep as manager too...and I thought Jaap was doing a good job :D )

Clearly not ST holders, or regular listeners to BBC Berks ;)

Reading should not aspire to become a city, say getreading readers

Many getreading readers feel that applying for city status should not be a priority for Reading but those who voted in our poll feel otherwise

Why Reading should be a city vs why it should stay a town

The town excels in some areas and needs work on others. We look at what is city standard and what isn't
