We were the only club in the championship to do the twenty is plenty. At a time when Leeds were charging £39. And he did pay for coaches for some of the long away trips.

If we'd lost 1-0 at home to Fulham instead of 2-0, we'd have stayed up. Then again, there's dozens of small instances which in isolation all seemed so insignificant, that would have made the difference between staying up and going down. This. Or lost 2-1 at Fulham instead of 3-1. The annoying thing...

Can’t believe today 14th was 30 years ago we won 3-1 at Tranmere, in the first leg of the championship playoffs. Brilliant support that day packed the away end. Happy days.

East Grinstead Royal Yesterday was also the 24th anniversary of the play-off first leg away to Wigan. I know this because I had a prior engagement that day!

That was the orange day! Martin Allens idea to match our away kit at the time.

Mid table at best. A complete re build. With so many players leaving, out of contract.

Out of Birminghams 34 wins 21 were by one goal. Against the mighty Cambridge, Shrewsbury, Crawley and Lincoln ect.
Our 106 season eight were by one goal. In a league that contained Wolves, Leeds, Leicester and Southampton.

Genuinely was pleased to see the big suited lummox, Kingsley and his family back. There were quested of kids in the North stand waiting to get a picture. I even saw one kid take of his shoe for Kingsley to sign it. :lol: Presumably they’ve been missing because no one wanted to pay anyone to suit up...

I saw 3 Asian lads before the game in ding shirts. That’s 3 more than Millwall.

82-83 Reading beat Wrexham in a must win game to avoid the drop. After a delay we find out Exeter have won to send us and Wrexham down. 2004-5 Reading travel to promotion chasing Wigan. A 3-1 defeat leaves the Royals outside the playoffs. 2007-8 Whilst Reading thrash Derby 4-0 a late goal for Fulham...

Asians do not like football. I never played football for or against Asian players in the Sunday leagues. But cricket was a different story with loads of Asian players. Sometimes entire clubs. We have a lot of eastern europeans in west Reading maybe we could target them? I don't think that's necessa...

One thing I am sure of having been to Mansfield. Is the capacity is not 24,167!

Thank you for posting that. It’s really sad we don’t have a blue plaque or something something to remind people that’s where Reading played for 100 years.l know Coventry City have a really nice monument to Highfield road.

I can only offer my deepest condolences, for your loss. RIP.

Not the best but a win is a win.

Get in

This is better

Never like these 12:30 kick offs. Always seems to be a crap game.

Maybe one day we will get a decent ref.

Wycombe look a good side not hard to see why they are where they are.
