READING will play Gillingham at the Mad Stad in the Carabao Cup Round One it has been decided today.
The game takes place week beginning Monday, August 7.
It's the first time the clubs will have played eachother in a decade.
But the draw this afternoon wasn't as straightforward as it was meant to be.
There was a 'technical glitch' and Charlton Athletic were drawn twice, prompting lots of reaction on social media.
