Cheers for doing this IR. I am amazed I finished = bronze medal position. Next season will be tricky to predict, but if the ownership goes through I think we’ll finish top 8. I believe the 2025/26 season will be our year, 20 years on from the 106 points.

Someone on Twitter has mentioned that this has happened 3 times in the last 23 years and that on 2 occasions it was due to a change of ownership.

I cheered him like I do all our players. He didn’t have his best game, but he’s still young and learning.

The next month is going to be super boring isn’t it. Nothing to play for other than pride and momentum to take into next season in the remaining two games. Contract negotiations and releases likely mostly on hold for the takeover. Blackout on takeover info until its done or falls through. Speculati...

I see a new catering partnership has been announced so hopefully that’s a fairly good sign.

I stupidly remember thinking when we won the title in 2011/12, with a rich Russian owner that we’d never have any financial issues again. I honestly thought we were in the Premier League to stay. Little did I know that was the start of our demise with the Vibrac loan etc.

The only really enjoyable seasons in the Championship for me were McGhee's time and Coppell,s-McGhee's because of the style and Coppell's for the style and the realisation that we had a team that would hold it's own at the top level. Would add the first season under Pardew to this after we got prom...

1. I want any new potential owners to give Ruben their 100% backing next season. 2. I want them to ensure all of our good youngsters are put on long term contracts. 3. I’d like more communication from them, but it’s not crucial. 4. Sensible player recruitment. 5. Provide more support for the women’s...

I really enjoyed the game yesterday. It was a fairly end to end and overall I thought we were the better team. Oddly, it all seemed a bit subdued when the game ended. Has there been any mention of another points deduction incoming? Anyway, changing the subject this could be the first season I can re...

I don’t think Barnsley’s home record has been too good recently. I think if we turn up and aren’t too jaded after Tuesday’s game we can get a positive result. In the past, game 3 of 3 when we’ve had games in quick succession hasn’t gone well.

After Oldham’s great escape in the 92/93 premiership season I’d never take anything as a given until we’re mathematically safe. I am pretty sure Oldham were 9 points behind Palace with 3 games left and survived. I remember thinking we were safe in 2007/8 and that ended badly. Obviously, I am very co...

This has been my favourite season since we last got promoted to the Premier League. There were a few games where I lost faith in Selles, but I have loved visiting stadiums I hadn’t been to in years. Until the sale is done I can’t get too optimistic about next season. Potentially, we could be pushin...

Everyone in club 1871 should bounce up and down after 18 minutes.

I couldn’t go tonight, but wins like this make all the sh*t worth it. I am so glad I support Reading rather than a big Premiership club.

If people are debating it, it can't have been a clear error. Compare it to Derby where even their fans were admitting we'd been mugged. Agree Tbh, although bad referee decisions feel rubbish at the time I’d still take them over VAR all day long. The thought of going crazy celebrating a goal to get ...

I’d love this to be a comfortable 3-1 home win, but fearing a defeat. I’d take an entertaining 2-2 draw right now.
