We came third last year with our top goalscorer being a striker. The idea of not having a specialist forward is sadly proving to be very flawed. Yes we have exciting pacy midfielders, but none of them has a history of banging in the goals. Look at the most successful teams and their highest goalscor...

What a great way to get behind the team on the first day of the season. By slating them before they've touched the ball.

While I'm on the subject of inflation in football, has inflation completely passed Reading by? It seems that we are now real small fry. When we paid out £1million back in the day for Leroy Lita, that was about the going rate at the time for that type of striker. The club were showing really good am...

Dave-Royal I'm missing this one be cos of work

I'm still going for 3-2 win.

And I'll have a Big Mac and fries please.

Changing the goalkeeper now is a stupid idea. Habsi can't be blamed for any of the Fulham goals and he's starting to show a bit of decent form and confidence.
I'd like to see Tish come in to help the midfield and Piazon dropped until he can learn to play a team game.

Not the worst loan signing ever, but shaping up to be the most overrated judging by some of your comments. He needs to get rid of all his Chelsea habits now. If someone has the audacity to take the ball off of him he needs to at least attempt to get it back. Not stand around pouting as if someone ha...

Jesus that was awful. Pointless studio audience. IPads. "Martin, talk us through this" "What do you want me to say?" Nigel Adkins getting us promoted. Spending so much time studying the league tables (on those stupid spinning things) after one game. "That Reading goal was de...

Sutekh Reminds me, I saw a headline yesterday that apparently Manchester City are leading the chase for Pog.

Yep, around £50 million. I think we should hold out for £60 million, maybe then we can afford to sign the Swindon keeper.

I am the only one in 117? Does 117 even exist? That's the last time I trust Mrs Jimbo to buy tickets for an FA Cup semi final. :lol: Block 117 is Wembley's equivalent of Room 101. That's the last we'll ever see of you. #prayforjimbo It was nice knowing you all. Well, some of you. Perhaps I'll disap...

"This thread is really interesting and relevant."

When do they decide which games are on Saturday and Sunday?

About 15 minutes stroll along the river.

It's really not. The 8 bells is pretty much outside Putney Bridge Tube Station. Hence an away fans pub..

Yep! Sorry, I thought he meant the ground.

Which is definately a 15 minute stroll along the river.... honest.

About 15 minutes stroll along the river.

Oh, and IN.

I might even treat Mrs Jimbo to a steak at the Roxie later.

Yet another shite draw.

I think Murray and Pog are similar in that I can't see either of them creating something from nothing but if you create chances for them, they will score goals. Murray, however, is proven in the Championship and better in the air. So if it was a straight choice between the two of them Murray would e...

Having Williams, Gareth and (soon) Jem back is great news and now all of a sudden we've got a team with a bit of depth and balance.
However, I hope this isn't used as an excuse not to strengthen in January.......
