Fair play to the ref for booking that Forest player (#10) who was telling him to ‘oxf*rd off’. Didn’t think he was going to do it.

Clyde1998 Saturday 11 May at 14:00 - Reading vs Nottingham Forest - Madejski Stadium

Same situation as last time: free entry; free parking; Lower West; etc.

Everyone's reminder for today.

Clyde1998 Doncaster won 2-0 at Crewe in their play-off first leg. The second leg is on Friday.

Crewe won 2-0 on the night and won the penalty shootout 4-3.

Milton Keynes vs Crawley in the second leg tomorrow.

The title and top six odds are now on the Sky Bet website, plus an update to the promotion odds after the play-off semi-finals have concluded: Sky Bet Title Odds (at time of posting): ⋅ 3/1 - Birmingham ⋅ 9/1 - Huddersfield ⋅ 10/1 - Peterborough; Wrexham ⋅ 11/...

It's win:win. They lose on TV on their big night out. Or They go up and get humiliated most weeks for a year. I thought that Oxford now have pretty rich owners themselves - who can afford to build a new stadium for them!? I think they do. Certainly they fought off Championship interest for Brannaga...

This. Leicester, Leeds and Southampton would probably have the highest budgets in the Championship if no side had parachute payments - giving them PP completely destroys any chance of sides competing with them financially. And yet someone did compete with them Not financially. Ipswich weren't compe...

The three relegated sides nearly always have insanely higher budgets than the rest of the Championship. That’s what the parachute payments do. I understand the 3 coming down will have parachute payments, but Leicester, Leeds and Southampton felt like a new extreme when it came to financial disparit...

Loafer Have any team ever gone through an entire season including all cups without losing a single game?

Not since the introduction of European competitions apparently.

Quality goal as well, especially the composure to beat his man before shooting.

97th minute equaliser for Leverkusen!!

Clyde1998 Leverkusen 1-0 down against Roma... Apparently Roma's keep has kept them in the game.

2-0 Roma - both coming from penalties.

Leverkusen 1-0 down against Roma... Apparently Roma's keep has kept them in the game.

Villa 1-0 down after ten minutes. Cannot see them scoring three.

Turns out there is something worse than a half-and-half scarf - one that's been misspelt.

The club are running a survey on the experience of following Reading and improvements that could be made by the club (in terms of ticketing; catering; merchandising; facilities; stewarding; family area; matchday entertainment; Community Trust; website; social media). This should've been sent to peop...

Could understand getting rid of any of the three left backs but letting them all go is a big gamble. Leaves us with six senior defenders and one of them is Dean. Fwiw as I mentioned in another thread, I was sat near Carson's dad on Saturday and while he wasn't expecting him to be first choice next ...

tidus_mi2 Peterborough look pretty hopeless right now.

They hardly caused much threat throughout the game and conceded a very soft penalty to get knocked out.

Oxford defended well, but didn’t look all that good. All on Bolton now.

That linesman should be getting demoted after that decision. They cannot raise their flag until the passage of play has finished, in case it wasn’t offside. In that case it was far too close to call and VAR may have given onside. Awful officiating. That may have cost Bayern an equaliser

Clyde1998 1-1 - really stupid penalty to give away.

And it’s sent them out.

Just have to hope Bolton do their job now.
