Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

Find the response to his return baffling. Put nostalgia to one side for a minute, did we really need another attacking player? Especially one who is 36. If it was a different 36 year old striker who had no previous Reading connection would you be excited? Probably not. I will change that opinion sh...

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

PM’d. PTR, is this something where we can start jumping off walls with happiness or should we start collecting money to try and get some better quality players? If you are in the yes please camp, enjoy your day. seeing Shane on the hallowed turf of the Mad Stad / SCL would be like Christmas and my ...

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

Yep, made two posts, with exciting, revealing news if it’s your thing, and they have been deleted. How strange. Is Shane joining PTR? PM’d. PTR, is this something where we can start jumping off walls with happiness or should we start collecting money to try and get some better quality players?

Re: Rival Watch

I’d prefer to Forest, nicer club, not such oxf*rds like at FulOlham. Never got to see Cloughie, but from what I’ve heard a great brand of football and they played really nice football against us in both games.
I’d hope they stay up and FulOlham get relegated with a very low points total.

Re: George Puscas leaving?

£2m and his salary off the books I’d let him go. I would hope we would get more elsewhere for him. It’s a poor return considering what we paid for him The problem is the clause seems to be well known, so unless a club at a Serie A level or equivalent come knocking, clubs know he'll cost (or we will...

Re: Out of Contract 2022

Not quite out of contract, but Piza lost to Monza 3-4 AET yesterday (AGG 4-6) so Puscas could be back !! Wish no ill on Georgie, but we really needed that money. Hopefully Pisa come in for him in the summer. If not, then PINce really should accommodate him properly into the team. AND, someone needs...

Much as I dislike the politics of the Torygraph Percy is usually reliable.

Wouldn’t touch the Torygraph, not even the sports section with a bargepole.


Nor would I but have seen some of his stuff online and he seems to be itk.

Re: Rival Watch

Franchise FC
Franconian Royal Would much prefer Forest, they play a very nice brand of football.

Not last night they didn’t

Didn't get to see the match, but from what I saw when we played them at the City Ground this season, they were unfortunate to not get auto spot against Tinpot Town (Bournemouth)

Re: Luton v Reading FC - - - Match 48 - - - 2021-2022 Prediction League

Snowball Just to say, “Franc”, that I am pencilling in a 2-0 Luton defeat followed by 0-0 home to Reading

But this may change after Tuesday’s game, and I would expect a few updates from other Nobbers

I’ve put us down for a 2-1 defeat. I might have to change it after yesterday’s trouncing.
