Re: Would you lose against Blackpool to deny Oxford the play-offs?

I think Oxford will lose in the playoffs anyway regardless of us denying Blackpool

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (h)

Well, a combination of (mostly) ongoing health issues and (partly) apathy this was my first game of the season. Thoroughly enjoyed the game, pleasantly surprised by the overall skill level on show. Had a bit of a problem to start with as did not recognise many of the players and had to check the te...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (h)

Indeed. If we’re having higher attendances next season, the unreserved seating arrangements will have to be reviewed. No way. Can't see us averaging above 16500. And that would be plus 4k. The whole idea behind C1871 starts to fall apart if you make seating reserved. I’m thinking a review at the en...

Re: Who do we want to play next season?

Hoping Norwich beat Birmingham next week. I fancy them to struggle next season. Huddersfield won't find league one easy either. I want an easier league next season to help us challenge.

On paper Rotherham, Peterborough and Barnsley could be serious promotion contenders as could Charlton.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Blackpool (h)

Hopefully we can keep most of the squad as I fancy them to improve next year. Also bond so well with the fans too.

Playoff challenge next season please

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

Really really disappointing, but I guess it doesn't matter. Need to find a way of stemming goals conceded away if we want to challenge for top 6 next season. Also really lacking in creativity aside from Wing. Goals from a FK and PK, Azeez hasn't offered much for a while now. Wide areas top priority...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

A lot of bedwetting on BBCRB, saying we wouldn't even be top half without the points deduction. A lot of "We're Reading, it's our first L1 season in 21 years, we should be near the top of the table" attitudes about. Whereas it should be "We had about 10 senior players and no manager ...

Re: New owners' top 5 priorities

4) Improve matchday experience Bring back programmes, involve local suppliers, get rid of Compass and their appalling food. Think of initiatives to make matchday more enjoyable and bring fans back. In addition to this point, I'd say basic stadium maintenance should be included in that list. Things ...

Re: Looking forward to the 2024-25 season

I'd hope to see Dai gone and a reasonable new owner who can steady the ship and ensure all bills are paid. I expect we'll lose a few players over the summer, hopefully for fees as the club starts to be run more sustainably and we can invest more money into wages and attracting good players on free a...

Re: Away followings

Cheltenham can definitely stay up after their win at Burton especially if we also go there and win. I quite enjoyed going there at Christmas time. So we had exactly 800 fans at Barnsley. 1700 going Saturday and maybe a few in the home end too. Shame some of the away ends are tinpot with small stands...
