'TECHNICAL ISSUES' at St Andrew's delayed Birmingham's Championship clash against Reading by 30 minutes. The club advised supporters travelling to the ground for Saturday's 3pm scheduled kick-off to 'halt their journeys'. A system failure at around 1pm caused an issue with the ticket scanners and fans were kept outside the stadium. The technical issue also affected the ground's CCTV. On-site engineers were on hand to help fix the issues and supporters began entering the stadium at around 2.20pm.
