Well hating someone like Martyn Booty or Michael Meaker would be akin to bullying the little kid in the playground. Booty's ability to get into a decent crossing position then, without fail, hit the first defender still annoys me today. I still refer to a cross that hits the first defender as a &qu...

Royal Rother I still wonder whether there's something wrong with mother / child.

One of the World's top models has a child and then (seemingly) isn't photographed for 6 months anywhere...? Doesn't seem right to me.

That could explain why he was so keen before and why he might want to be closer to home now.

I loved reading those tweets on the previous page, especially the one about not producing first team players when the list of former academy players currently in the top 2 tiers of English football is: Gylfi Sigurdsson Jem Karacan Alex Pearce Alex McCarthy HRK Simon Church Simon Cox Ben Hamer Jorda...

Thanks Brum. The memory must be going with age. Two reasons why Sonko was hard

Let's ignore Preston away the previous season where he cleared the ball into his own face and conceded a corner.

Does anyone have any hard facts on what happened to Anton? I've dug up this timeline from a few internet searches. I don't know how factual any of these reports are. 26/07/2013 Everything seems fine. Reports of him denying reports that Pog was going to Rubin Kazan (in earlier reports he said Pog wan...

Indeed it was. My calculations: Season 1998-99: Average League Attendance: 11,253 Season 1999-2000: Average League Attendance: 8,987 Oof :o Season 2000-01: Average League Attendance: 12,647 Season 2001-02: Average League Attendance: 14,115 *Playoff games not counted. The 8987 from 1999-2000 should ...

BFTG threads? We're almost getting to the stage where the academy deserve their own forum. Well worth a BFTG thread. One of those you had to be there games that will live long in the memory. Up there for me with the 2-1 last minute play off win v Wigan for late adrenaline rush. Incredible night. Le...

Just back home and wow that is literally one of the best and most exciting games of football that I have ever seen. What a fantastic effort from both sides. The first half started with a rampant Liverpool. The ball is in the net but disallowed but before you know it Cardwell gets the ball - shows h...

Just back from mad stad. We looked dead & buried at 4-2 down in extra time. Loads of reading fans left when 4th went in. Some people never learn. What an immense game if football. The future's bright, the future's blue & white. URZ!

In what way was Sonko hard, other than being black? Southampton away, midweek, early in the 106 season. He stopped a fierce goal-bound shot from about 5 yards out by taking it full in the face on the goal line. He didn't flinch or even get knocked backwards into the goal. The guy was made of granit...

Leicester are 3 up.
That'll be 77 points with 12 games to play.

Royal Ginger

harry Boro 1 Forest 0

Not sure we can laugh at that. They dicked us 3-0

Laughing at Billy Davies

Royal Ginger Up to 5th!

Need to clear Forest & Brighton as Wigan have half a season in hand over us
Could do with Redface's false hoops getting a goal at Amex now as well

Davies out!!

Boro 1 Forest 0

higher This is going worrying well.

You may have cursed McCleary's hammy

Need Boro to score now to give Forest the jitters

Elm Park Old Boy Need Forest to lose tonight.

Davies's teams always choke. Hoping he runs to form again this year.

Kebe's not playing for them. Conor Wickham starts and Noel is on the bench.
So the ex-Royals curse means we'll only concede 2 tonight.

Is Simon Church the only ex-player to play against us this season and not score??
