Re: Player of the year . ( so far)

No non-white winners, but who could really argue against Gylfi, Pearce and Long for their wins. Being unnecessarily picky here, but no way did Pearce deserve POTS the year we went up. Gorkss or Feds were sublime. For me It's between Guthrie, Pog & Gunter. All have been our 'best player' at time...

Re: Brighton Away: BFTG

I actually enjoy going to Brighton away. Much better than dumps like loftus Road The ground and facilities are very good and despite what is mentioned here I have found the rail service to Brighton /Lewes excellent. (Yesterday we queued and waited about 10 mins for a train to Lewes) Takes me a lot l...

Re: Brighton Away: BFTG

Dreadful first half. Would have been 0-0 but for McCarthys clanger. Thats two now, although he did make a brilliant and his only save of the game on about 90 minutes. Second half was all Reading and the fact that there keeper got MOM tells you everything. If only we had a decent striker (ALF pretty ...

Re: Yeovil (H) BFTG

I thought he was poor as well.
As I said earlier the little no. 20 had the better of him.
He kept giving the ball away and his control was a lot poorer than of late. I have applauded his efforts and superb performances recently. Saturday he was pretty awful. (Not on his own though)

Re: The Great Football Ticketing Rip-off

This student thing makes me laugh.
You should count yourself lucky you get some discount because they never used to do it. It used to be kids tickets - Adult tickets.

Stop moaning and be grateful for what you got.

Re: Team for Brighton. (A)

Can't believe anyone would seriously contemplate playing Drenthe on the wing in front of Obita away from home. I'm assuming McAnuff is unavailable. Obita did just fine with HRK/Drenthe in front of him against Yeovil though, so I don't think it is a disaster if McAnuff is unfit. Obita had a shocker ...

Re: Yeovil (H) BFTG

The whole point is that you can blame the "Board" as much as you like but the players he has at this time should be performing a damn sight better than they are. This I am afraid is where old Nige is letting himself and us down.

Yet to see him do anything of note.

Still fuming at that turgid pile of shite! Passionless bunch of prima donnas. WTF does our manager install in our team. Thats 3 home games in a row when we have been dreadful. I would like to think there would be some improvement. But Hey Ho ZILCH! I have come to the conclusion that Adkins has not g...

Re: Brighton away 8th March

Don't forget that £32 includes transport around Brighton to the match.
For instance. If you park at Lewes I think you will find the train is free on production of your match ticket.

Re: Investment in Farnborough FC

I don't understand Reading's fascination with Farnborough FC. I can only guess Spencer Twethewy (or Day whatever he's calling himself these days) is laughing all the way to the bank with the additional income from RFC. Surely a more local NL club could have benefited from the investment eg Reading ...

Re: The Champions League Thread 2013/14

Like our game against the Owls

With ten men the game was spoilt.

Bayern are hard enough to beat with eleven. Ten men - No chance.

Re: Red Card-Yes or No?

Gorkss gave the referee the opportunity to send him off. I think it would be best for Adkins to sit Gorkss out of the next game as a result of his stupidity, and give Hector the chance to not something so rash. you should take a break from this board for the very same reason :lol: Anyhow, it's not ...

I have come to the conclusion that West London clubs are mainly Basket Cases. I give you Fulham.

Re: Numbers of loanees in a match day squad

Shows what a calamity QPHa is.

In the match day programme they had a page dedicated to their SIX deadline day signings.
They have enough half decent players in their squad to make about three teams.
