Re: Rumour: Howe out

I've heard that the owners have sanctioned the purchase for £250,000 of lucky dips for tonight's Euro Millions £109 Million draw. If one of those 100,000 lines come up we are well sorted for FPP.

Re: Rumour: Howe out

We don't know the full facts or know what the Dai's are thinking but I wonder if the owners have looked at the state of the finances, which were on a knife edge before Covid-19, realised that we're gonna be dealt a blow by FFP and rather than limp along then get docked 12 points have simple gone 'i...

Swift and Moore staying?

I thought I would have seen this mentioned somewhere but I can't find it. Accidentally (honest) hit to change stations on the car this morning from Radio 1 (my kids like it and I do like a bit of drill in the morning) to the BBC berks. The particular berk on was Andrew Peach with Adie Williams and t...

Re: BFTG Leeds Home

Marcelo Bielsa We played against an opponent that has dangerous offensive players and probably we can say we could neutralise them.


Hmmm. You and the other 22 teams eh? I think he's putting too much praise on the Leeds team for their achievements :D

Re: The League of 4

10th minute of injury time! I actually feel sorry for the Rotherham fans.

I hope the ref enjoys the drive back to Earley or wherever near Reading he must live

Re: New Manager

Ah well - he looked promising but it would've been a big and expensive gamble. Jokanovic is still winning my vote. I agree. Couldn’t see why Reading would so aggressively persue Castro as his record doesn’t look exceptional. Jokanovic though is someone to get excited about. Not being talked up thou...

Sutekh And Chris Martin goes into the squad for Saturday. Bet he’s only on the bench though, especially if it’s too cold to play

Re: Fulham prediction thread

Is anyone else glad we've been written off?

Listening to Talksh1t in car and it's all about the momentum of Fulham and Sheff Wed.

Ok, we're only 5th in the form table for the last 6 (w4;l2) 4 away, 2 home but we are top last 10 (w7;l3) 6 away.

I think that's less shabby than pundits think.

Re: CONFIMRED - Blackman to Derby

I think this could prove to be a big loss for RFC - but not because Blackman has gone but the effect his going has. What must players like Gunter, McCleary or Norwood be thinking - we're struggling to score and we sell the player who has scored a third of our goals? I can only see this impacting ba...

Championship is a great division, you can never be sure on a result and a good smattering of away fixtures around the country, Premiership, well meh, who gives a sh1t. i always wish y...

Re: Team for Bristol City (H)

McD has brought back ReadingTime! Only in the Championship against teams we should beat easily. He really hasn't had huge amounts of time with the players yet though so I will forgive how lumbering our performances might be. One thing with Brian though was that he knew how to win a game and right no...

Re: Welcome back Brian

When the possibility was first floated I was negative about it but now it's looking like it's happened I'm actually quite excited. McD took a really average squad and very quickly built team spirit and turned around the performances. Think what he could do with these players - a much stronger squad ...
