Reading Football Club will resubmit plans to expand Madejski Stadium in Berkshire as planning permission for an expansion submitted in 2007 has expired.

The application would have allowed the club to increase its capacity at the stadium from 24,500 to 38,000 but building would have to have commenced by November, which the club says will not happen.

Sir John Madejski, who owns the club, said the expansion would only go ahead if the club remained in the premier league.

The stadium was opened in 1998 at a cost of £50m.
