Re: Florist (A) Match Thread

We could do with Barnsley at least equalising against Sheffield.

Peterborough down to 9 men V Derby and Plymouth losing at home......

Re: Griffin Saver!

I have never disliked a football shirt as much as that. Roll on the summer and another rip off Reading special home kit change. +1. I loath the home shirt and that ridiculous chevron at the top that reminds me of a Wolves shirt every time I look at it. We've had far worse in the past - what about t...

Ferguson going to Preston

Just seen the press conference on SSN and wondering who the other club is that he was talking to???

We had a couple of weeks headstart on them so has Hammond p1ssed it up again?

Re: Abertawe prediction thread

They are strong at the back so we cannot afford to concede first or we will lose I think.

Draw would be Ok-ish - I can see all the bottom 3 losing tomorrow so would then be 5 pts clear.

Re: The Fans decide: poll for next manager

So it's in the chronicle this morning that the club aren't even looking at outside candidates and McDermott is in pole position. What an absolute joke this club is. Madejski actually couldn't be ruining the club anymore if he tried. I hope the old pr*ck has a royally sh*t Christmas. Tw@t. Well firs...

Re: ...and 24 years ago today...

Best home game I've seen definately They went to pieces when we got first one - was that the penalty? I cannot remember the goals all that well apart from they were at the tilehurst end and all close range. I am sure Gary Peters got their guy sent off when he was time wasting near corner flag after ...

Re: The Fans decide: poll for next manager

Give Brian McDermott a month max and if he does Ok extend until the end of the season. Not sure about either of the two front runners on this poll: Ferguson - unproven at this level and had some money at Peteborough Curbishly - overrated and has lived off 4 or 5 good seasons at Charlton years ago - ...

Re: Madejski - Where is he hiding???

Does anyone know how much he wants for RFC?

Old Birmingham owners Gold and Sullivan in talks with West Ham for £50M according to SSN - I am sure I read somewhere he wanted much more than that but what assets do we have apart from the ground?

Re: Do you miss the Premiership?

Due to where I live now I never had a season ticket in prem so was only able to go to the less attractive games. There was a great atmosphere even at these games though and you were seeing household names every week - I'd hardly heard of any of the Scuntorpe players on Sat. I also think what might h...

Re: Scunthorpe - back from the lame

Teams that dominate and create the number of untaken chances that we did today, go down. That is all. That's the worrying thing - as well as the fact we cannot or look like keeping a clean sheet. We are unlikely to pull away from the bottom now - we've missed the chance with a relatively easy run o...

Re: Worst Reading goalkeeper?

Its got to be Colgan -in his first game at Crewe he did something ridiculous (I cannot quite remember) and at Oxford he was dreadful.

Re: Sheffield Wednesday prediction thread

It doesn't look good if we lose today - would be 2 defeats in a row to sides around us and on poor runs.

I can also see Ipswich getting some results now after last week.

We need 6 points from next three games.

It's always a shame when old stadiums get knocked down :( I know financial needs mean that the lands needs selling but if they can list other buildings of national heritage why can't some stadiums, or even just the odd stand be saved. It would be great to just be able to stand on a short section of...

Re: Derby (A) I'm looking forward to seeing....

Great Gliksey goal in Nov 1985 - great atmosphere at the old ground - and an awful pitch as seen on MOTD in early 1970s!

Is the Baseball ground still there? Last time I was in Derby the ground was still being used for youth team games I think
