Re: Dellor moaning about Vydra again!!!

I posted on here earlier that Williams should be shown the door at the end of the season. I have just seen footage of the incident on the internet and have changed my mind. It shows McShane saying something to Williams and they walked towards each other and then Mcshane headbutted Williams, no wonde...

Re: Dellor moaning about Vydra again!!!

He actually asked last night for the other commentator to take over because he couldn't handle it. Did he? :shock: I missed that. Yeah, jokingly I believe that TD said after the winning goal went in and therefore the end of the match, "over to you Ady". and made a remark about he (Tim) co...

Re: Dellor moaning about Vydra again!!!

I like both Tim and Brian, so I hope i can be objective here. Tim can get a bit excited at times, but like any other fan, (and he is a Reading fan), he can vent his anger at things he does not like. just like you or me. He was entitled to ask the questions he asked, Brian was, I assume, as disappoin...

Re: Speculation: Kemar Roofe

Radio Oxford commentators reported seeing both McDermott and Hammond at their home game with Stevenage on Good Friday. The only player worth scouting would have to be Kemar Roofe. A possible replacement for HRK when he goes to Swansea this summer? 72 bus wrote, Bargain basement stuff again, Can any...

Re: Ola John

Lower West
Royal Rother
I don't understand what you are saying - if everyone thinks he's shit we might be able to get him for nothing???


Not nothing. But a far better price than £10 million.

Maybe they will pay us £10 million, to take him off their books?

Re: 4 years ago today

I'm fairly new around here, so can anyone tell me who No Fixed Abode supports and why he posts his unwanted views on this forum? Also does anyone know if his club has an opinion board, and if he posts such rubbish on there?

Re: The Egg chasers relegation

Sunbury-on-Thames may be administered by Surrey County Council, but to most local residents and me, it is still Middlesex, The postal address includes Middlesex, a local football team is called Ashford Town (Middlesex) FC, that is good enough for me and many,many others to keep referring to the Coun...

Re: The Egg chasers relegation

Madejski aside - as a principle do you feel Premiership rugby has a home in Berkshire, or should it be concentrated in South West London? London Irish's home ground may have been in the Richmond/Twickenham for a couple of seasons, but for over 80 years they played in Sunbury-on-Thames, MIDDLESEX, (...

Massive +1 the club need to accept you cannot progress in this division or the next without spending more than they currently are.

Re: Tight old Reading

Do owners really invest their money into a club? From what I have seen or read in the media most of them loan the money to the club and when they get fed up and decide to move on they expect to be repaid, leaving the club in debt and/or falling foul of the FFP rules etc. If the club cannot repay tha...

Re: Would you accept an experimental period

I am not calling for a team full of academy players. Why not just play one or two each week, to see how they get on? Neither do I slag off any of the Reading players, wherever they came from. Yes, the youngsters may make one or two mistakes, but that is the way they learn. Anyway, the "experien...

Re: Would you accept an experimental period

When we are safe from regulation. I reckon about ten more points from the next five games should do it, giving the last six matches for the youngsters what they can do.

Tmesis. TVS covered Kent as well as Hampshire etc., as far as I remember, so the two coasts would have been the North Kent and the South Coasts.

Re: The Zenith Data Systems Cup

Maybe it was a Micky Mouse Cup, but it was the happiest I ever left a match. When Luton, who I believe were in a division above us at the time, scored the first goal, disappointment set in. Then each time we scored the sea of blue and white erupted into a an increasing crescendo and the blob of blac...

:D 80 year old man :shock: He said he was at the Reading 10 Palace 2 game in 1946. That would make him somewhere in his 70s, 80s or 90s. :D Obviously he was joking. Why does he have to be joking? Some of us can live long enough to reach that age. Also, us oldies can use computers you know!

Re: Team for Palace (H)

I think we need Hector protecting the back four. I don't fancy them against Bolasie and Zaha without any sort of midfield protection. Not to mention Gunter & Obita who will put in their half-arsed crosses and be missing whilst Zaha/Bolasie tear us a new one. Although TBF Ward and Souare might b...
