What's next, rainbow shirts? Political checks at the turnstiles? Leave things be.

Re: Should Reading change our club crest...

I confess,it was one of 4 designs I sent in to JM, in response to a call for fans to send in designs. Boyd Butler then forwarded it to an agency as it was hand drawn.They tweeked it,swapping the lion and the crown round. At what point is your lawyer going to put in a claim for royalties?

Re: Elm Park Years

Interesting memories,but the Arab goal machine Dick Habbib?? Try Dick Habbin, signed from then non league Cambridge Utd.
Yes the Elm Park atmosphere was miles better, but we have progressed so much on all fronts since the move.
Elm Parkers are a part of history.

Re: Rumour - Roy Beerens

Typical lack of communication coming out of the club, we should have heard by now, or have Sky broken a record for jumping the gun?

Good to see ambition in one so young, sounds like a lucky escape to me.

Re: What are your expectations for this season? (with poll)

Top Half will be progress. New players bed in and the makings of a good squad. A boos with a plan B will help too. Quietly confident!

Re: Returning Hero

There have been many 'what if's' and 'why did we let him go's ' over the years, but Antonio's departure was a big ricket. A lot of these failures to keep players has also coincided with our 'financial fluttering', money is often the cause, or lack of it in our case. At least we seem to be giving raw...

Re: RUMOUR - Robert Beric

Fed up with the will we/won't we, Beric,Donaldson and now Hurtado. Just bite the bullet and get Alf back.
Like him or not , he'll give us 12+ goals a season, even did in the Prem.

Re: Nick Blackman

Put him back in League 1 and he'll do well, not at this level. That said he 's by no means the worst we've ever had.
(once had one who couldn't see all the way across the pitch for example).

Re: Atmosphere

Thanks for the welcome home. No bestiality was involved in the making of the name, nor do I have too many badges.

Agree that Sweet Caroline doesn't pan out right, (nice try at the semi final though), a good chorus is ideal, and as Paddy20 says not too complicated.

Re: Atmosphere

Usual ideas, but an anthem is the main thing to bind all groups of supporters, preferably one that has some age , like Liverpool's , Palace's or even Wet Sham's, not (as always seems to be suggested) a tuneless offering from the 80's/90's or newer, that most people over 15 have never heard of.
