1. Shaka - Favourite player ever. top bloke 2. Super Simon Osborn - still convinced if he hadn't got crooked midway through season 94/95, we may well have won the title and not had the heartache of Bolton. Sheer quality 3. Kevin Doyle - the only one of the 05 - 07 side to really "make a name fo...

this is the carling cup isnt it? i wonder why everyone suddenly cares when most couldnt be arsed to even turn up shit game, shit performance, learn from, and move on But some of those players "are our future" and if we get many more injuries, that's who'll be representing our team this se...

He does do it quite often though, thats the problem He didnt seem so apolgetic and humble on the radio after either. Saying how it wasnt so much his fault as just an accident and he thought it was a good ball right onto Kebes feet. Last time he cocked up he blamed everyone infront of for the 3 soft...

No cautions, no adverse comments on HobNob. Did he have a good game? Thought he was one of the best refs I have seen for a while. Blotted his copybook late on mind when he gave us a free kick right out on the touchline after their fullback had bodily shoved Jimmy into the stand only for the ball to...

We should really be playing 4-4-2 at home. If we had Long/Church or Long/Rasiak up front I'm sure we can attack better. Maybe use 4-5-1 against strong opposition, but against Scunthorpe, I'd like to see us control the game. It's not a defensive formation, mate. It is when 2 of your 3 central midfie...

What was the atmosphere like from the away fans? Our 'over the bridge' friends seem quite impressed from the travelling support Im not sure what game you saw today they were very loud and outsung our fans without no problem, I was in E Block right next to them and too be fair constant noise includi...

All these quotes about it being a stonewall pen. From where I sit in the North, Hill definately played the ball out for a corner. I am very vocal in my appeals for pens / free kicks etc and such was my certainty it was not a penalty, I didn't mutter a word (not that I am moaning mind). Players (genu...

First game was home to Donny in December 1971, aged 5. A convincing 3-1 with Dick Habbin amongst the scorers. On a similar theme, first ever away game was at Aldershot in April 1978, a 1-1 draw. However 'away' actually meant walking 10 minutes through Manor park to get to the Rec as I had by then mo...

The 8 days between March 9th and March 16th incl will have a significant bearing whether we play Portsmouth or Rochdale next year, but alas I voted no, the damage has already been done.

Have to agree with Floyd, always thought Archie was very over rated, but never voiced those opinions as he always seemed to be the Southbank darling. Saying that, Archie was responsible for 2 of my favourite ever Elm Park days, his hat trick against Swindon on a very warm April day making McMahon lo...

Fed 5 - not at fault for either goal, but do not trust him Bertrand 5.5 - not at his best Cummings 3 - Totally at fault for first goal, a shocking player Ivar 7 - Usual Ivar performance O Dea 5 - Worst game in a Reading shirt Karacan 7 - MOTM - at least he tried Bryn 5 - Normally a Bryn fan, but he ...

Think I've found the reason.

I think you missed the words "for 50-55 minutes" after the word Gunnar

"I don't blame Harper at all for that goal. Not even a tiny percentage of blame for it." Whilst the goal in the end didn't really matter, it was a blot on the landscape of an otherwise excellant performance. Exactly why did Harper, when he had space in front of him and time on the ball dec...

Big team indeed...... I was studying at Wolverhampton Poly at the time and it was front page news on their Express and Star local rag the next day how they derailed the "mighty Reading". Absolutely full of it. and yes they did get relegated that season and yes they did lose to Chorley 3-0 ...

1. Agree with all the sentiments regarding the Walsall cup game. Only time I can ever recall wishing the other team to score as we approached 90 minutes so as to avoid 30 more minutes of pure boredom. To cap it all, we went out and I found that some scrot had done over my car in the meantime. Couple...

North stander anyone know how many tickets there are left after today?

at 6.30pm this evening, there was just under 600 left.

Taken from Boro's rivals network. (Fly me to the Moon) If this is as he has stated, then it is an absolute and utter disgrace..... An open question to those Reading fans who... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ....attacked (not too strong a word) the M...

Just purchased 3 shirts, 1 adult and 2 children's sizes. Can only emphasize the points already made, the neckline is so small that both the kid's sizes split the first time they tried to take off the shirts and as I type are on their way back to the Mad Stad. Would appear to be a Friday afternoon de...
