Incidentally, we've been criticised before by the same Burnley website - the guy who runs it has an violent and irrational dislike of Reading and everything we do, so he'll always post negative things whatever happens. Tony Scholes is his name, isn't it? Moaned about the price of the pies last time...

The LI link was well accepted for the past few seasons..... So why the bitching now? We are the same club we ever were - we just have a lot more lifelong fans than we could see in the past. LI have given us much needed cash - possibly allowing us to splash out big money on the likes of Kits / Doyle...

Macclesfield, just the sort of side Shevchenko needed to play against to end his goal drought. Congractulations to Frank Lampard as well. 3 goals and not a deflection in sight.

Long time no hear, Harold. Been a bit quiet since Chelsea started oxf*rd things up.

Congratulations on today's result, by the way. Managed to go one better than Darlingon.

But there's nothing more stressful than being in a strong position year after year, only to balls it up in the last month though. The two most stressful seasons we've had in the last 10 have been 2000-1 and 2001-2 We should have walked automatic in either season but bottled it in 2000-1 and nearly b...

Sigh...so much anger on Hob Nob today :( Anyway...way are Yeovil so high? Yeovil - regular appearances at the top end of the table, 2 promotions in 5 years, decent cup runs, consistant success and surpassing of expectations? Can't understand why Brizzle City are so high, they have an almost unsurpa...

We could try lacing United's water bottles with laxatives. A plan without a hitch.

Re: Roy Bentley

From the telegraph report "Before showing their attacking edge, Coppell's side had to endure a buffeting in the first period. For 45 minutes, and into the break, Chelsea celebrated their title credentials. During the interval, Roy Bentley, the captain of the 1955 side, was presented with a pho...

You're playing for Newcastle, it's the last game of the season and you're playing at Sunderland. It's 1-1 in injury time and Newcastle get a penalty. You have to take it and it's the last kick of the game. Scoring means Newcastle win the title and Sunderland get relegated. What do you do?

I would accept that needs to happen and Aidy had said he would change how we play if we had better players but naturally its all about paying a price for them which we don't have. Come on, though, look at the team you put out Richard Lee James Chambers Jay DeMerit Dan Shittu Jordan Stewart Tommy Sm...

Don't buy it then if you think it's a rip off. The club don't have an option of recording over it with the end of season video and recycling it like they did with the Season's Greetings video in 94, so if it's shit and it doesn't sell, they lose money. Might make them think more carefully about what...

Honesty and Integrity will probably be Coppells legacy when he finally leaves us and that will be the Reading Way as he put it himself a few weeks back. When future bosses take us over I don't think after witnessing Coppells genius, fans will ever accept excuses about poor refereeing decisions and ...

Honourable mention for Bob Hazell. Sent off within half an hour of his debut for headbutting someone. It was the legendary 0-0er against Barnsley where Paul Futcher got sent off for being Ron's brother.

Best ref I've seen the past few years is Phil Joslin by far. I'm amazed he's not a Premership ref.
