The only upside of the club getting into such financial difficulty and the consequent penalties whatever they turn out to be is that we are recently such a poor side.

Imagine if this was 2006 - we'd be gutted

Thinking about the Follow your Team tickets that have to be paid for up front there is a hell of a lot of money held by the organisers. In effect the seats have been sold 20 or so times over. So they hold all that money, probably into millions, from December 2019 until the games start. And with a C...

Oh well a trip down to Bottom Meadow now seeing we're off ...don't book your executive charabanc just yet - - Southern League has just suspended all fixtures from tomorrow until the following w/e (21st March) inclusive and the South Mids have also Postponed this Saturdays entire program. ...expecti...

What and miss the cricket. That’s also been cancelled. And all this because Callum Hudson-Odoi gets a cold. What am I going to do ? May as well go back to work. Try watching "the Test" - 8 part series about Australian cricket, post the sandpaper If you like your cricket you will love it

I was much preferring this CV thread but it looks like going the way of the AE thread. It's really tiresome

I never mentioned racism. That was someone else. But since I look after asylum-seeking refugees, let's say I don't believe in borders +1 Top post, my man. +2 Although I been sneezing tonight and feel like a “cold” is coming on. Can you catch this virus over t’internet from Snowball? I feel he has q...

I know football is gentrifying but I think we're a long way from football fans having a slash at half time being indicative of general hygiene standards. Why not? It's a cross section of the population same as people gathered in pubs and clubs, cinemas and theatres. I don't think hand washing is no...

Of the hundreds who use the toilets before during and after the game very few wash their hands or use the sanitizer , even though the latter ran out at half time last Tuesday. Maybe the club should think about replenishing the soap and sanitizer several times during the game. Said as much on offici...

Doc says many with it get very mild symptoms The panic is because it spreads easily My understanding is it “dries you up” so NOT a runny nose job. My nose is as dry as it’s ever been even though I keep WANTING to blow it So far the headache is the worst bit Feels like a bad hangover Test is a drive...

paultheroyal People who say “not this year, we will crash and burn, let’s do it next year etc” are utter cnuts.

Indeed

Short term: Miazga and Morrison. Pace, passing, experience, shit housery, height, strength... Longer term: Miazga and McIntyre Exactly this Miazga has looked head and shoulders above the rest since we first saw him. And I would have played him as soon as he was fit despite some poor results when pl...

Old Man Andrews This second half display is up there with our best of the season. Really confident and assured, looked like a top 2 side.

Are you there?

If not how are you watching?

I'm there. Obviously.

Not obvious to me but thanks

FL confirm no pre match handshakes until further notice https://www.readingchronicle.co.uk/sport/18286971.coronovirus-fears-leads-cancellation-pre-match-handshakes/ Presumably that also means the prematch line up will also bite the dust. Be just like the days of proper football when teams just used...

The comment about the modern player not being two footed is very true.When I first started watching football,all the top footballers use to comment about working on their weaker foot.I seem to recall that our 2005 side only had one player who was genuinely two footed,and that was Doyle.Even at the ...

karbota But dont like the look of that Nigerian lad, looked lost and far too clumsy, not one to keep.

I'll see your and raise you a

Also thought for the most part Friend was consistent and pretty good. Let a bit more than I'd like go, but seemed to be reasonably balanced, maybe a bit more against us, but we were being out muscled a lot more than anything. Yeah, probably should have blown for a foul before their first. Bowen was...

Snowflake Royal

URZZZZ Good subs if not a little late

Think Bowen realised quite a while ago this was going to ET so save he legs... everyone was doing fairly well.

Yep good call I think
We had good momentum
