Madejski Stadium: 'No specific information' to change security

Stadium manager Ray Booth says there is no need to change arrangements after the Westminster attack.

Speaking to 大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Andrew Peach, the Madejski Stadium stadium manager said there are procedures in place which, at the moment, suit the threat level.

"We work on intelligence, and the current threat level is severe, and I've been reserving more draconian type searching and checking measures for when the threat level goes up to the next level.

"There's nothing to say that sports ground are going to be targeted."

He also said that there he has not increased security as a result of the recent terror attack in Westminster, London.

"I haven't [changed anything] because, as I say, there is no specific information.

"It could happen anywhere in Reading, it could happen anywhere in the country. To put physical barriers everywhere would be a massive, massive job."
