blythspartan How many fans did we take to Bournemouth? They sounded really loud on the highlights.

It was rammed to the rafters. Great atmosphere, best away evening for ages.

TBF after doing their Bournemouth thing after half-time, their home fans were church-mice.

I have only 2 things to ask about today’s game… 1) How is Hein any better than Southwood. What did he bring today that Southwood couldn’t have done?! 2) Why was Meite moved in-field alongside Joao, when he was causing so much chaos for their LB?! (Probably know the answers to both question, but bot...

genome 8 defeats in a row is one thing

14 losses in 19 games is another. Baffling he's still in the job.

The amount of corners conceded in a season record will surely last longer that the 106 points total, too?!

Indeed - the sexual chemistry is electric

Is this an in-house rival watch? Kinda worrying sitting, presumably, next to these people who rally should get a room in Y2X…

See how small the crowd is on Tuesday…

Great day, some nice songs from the Club which may reduce our family club of the year ranking. Special mention of the ref, who decided to make a game of it by giving the boys in red every decision of the last ten minutes of regular time. And a couple more in the 8 minutes of the 5 minutes extra time...

What a start to the weekend. Best game for me since 6-0 against West Ham.

Zip Jeez. Awful second half. Rafael again lets a poor one in. Time for change in goal.

Apart from the Rafael clanger it was acceptable enough.

This. I mean, the ball was a week in the air. Was he blinded by the sun?

Zip Not the best ref for us. He missed the stamp by Mings on Oliveira.

No, he saw it, remember, so it could not be dealt with post-match. Scunthorpe.

Edited due to beer. Mmmm.

Lucky 2000 again...and it might be interesting to watch the two most injury beleaguered sides go at it. Though with that charming, erudite, super-intelligent and fair ref...

If Laurent doesn’t get them. Rinomhota will. They work as a partnership and it’s brilliant to see. Olise is something else. His vision, his passing, his composure, his skill. Another assist today and he would have had two had it not been for the handball. The way he created space for himself was so...

Snowflake Royal You're all welcome.

I won’t be posting about being privileged for not seeing Harry Arter.

They are the worst side I’ve seen this season. Only Derby come close to their absolute uselessness And they’ve spent a ton of money to produce an incredibly conservative, dull and one paced side. How can you have no shots for 85 minutes, even with 10 men? (I’m not counting that scuffed block effort...

Appears that Langford has remembered how to give a penalty, albeit looked a little soft and a red card to go with it He’s shocking. Never a straight red and barely a penalty. Absolute wet wipe pcunt, needs euthanising. Plus one. I thought I was going to have to sedate my son after the Wednesday x 2...

Looks like there isn’t going to be a BFTG thread so here are my ratings: Laurent 9 - his best game in a Reading shirt, seven tackles! Plus three key passes, the most passes of anyone on our team by far (96), and 96% pass completion. An immense performance that would probably have warranted a 10 if ...

Yep great to be there again. enjoyable even if my sodding glasses kept misting up because of the face mask. I gave up wearing mine for the same reason Didn’t try and of the food stalls but there seemed a good number there. Wearing what, the mask or the glasses?, I`m blind as a bat without my verifo...

Whilst this fixture should be relatively straightforward, we must be extremely cautious of the quality possessed by Harry Arter. A player of his calibre could really cause us problems. I hope those lucky enough to be in the stadium tomorrow are appreciative of being so lucky to be witnessing him pe...

Hound Nice little analysis of Rino and Laurent by Andrews there. Enjoyed it

Apparently Sean Morrison is partnering Moore tonight. Wonder if Cardiff get Michael, instead...

So is Pauno just some incredible motivator then? He seems to have reinvigorated the fire in so many players. Moore looks back to his best. The atmosphere after the game was pretty motivating, if you ‘do’ Instagram. Pauno will never be picked for Strictly unless he changes dancing style, though. Was...
