Re: Carabao Cup 2nd Round Draw

Pepe the Horseman I have no recollection of Tranmere getting to the League Cup final.


Was there in my previous life as a Leicester fan. Gave them up for Royals 20 years ago…..

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

Selles - lost 11 out of 17 games with Southampton. Then lost every preseason game for us. All (bar one) by 2 goals. And now lost his only league game, at home against a vastly weaker opposition. Is Bullivant free? What’s your personal issue with Selles? Massively out of perspective here. He’s been ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

Nobody expected us to hit the ground running. I'd say there are signs of encouragement today. But miss chances and it only takes 1 moment to lose Yeah a few losses on the bounce and confidence will be shot. Not sure this doomongering is necessary! A 46-game season isn’t defined by the first month. ...

Another. What a bunch of asses.


And another. If I was a potential owner with no affiliation to Reading, this would make me think the fan base are more trouble than it’s worth.

Re: Season Tickets 23/24

Not sure who from the STAR board thought this statement was a good idea but have to say feels a bit misjudged. Of the ST holders I've spoken to no one was in disagreement with prices rising, especially with the reasons outlined reasonably; Reading Football Club this week announced prices for Season...

Re: The dedicated Chris Wilder thread

Apparently the physio who worked under him at Sheffield United has just followed a host of Reading relayed accounts on Twitter. The screenshot is literally just a list of people being followed, doesn't say who's following them. Would say that's the clearest indication yet that this is just a wind u...

Re: Rival Watch

It was just so unconvincing throughout. Never really worked up a proper head of steam. Thought Joao was quite good second half but awful first I do think there was some mentality of draw the game and we’d get a second chance this weekend, which doesn’t look the case now They clearly didn't have tha...

Re: Rival Watch

Pandoras Box If Boro had said ‘here’s the three points, we’ll stay at home’ they would have put in more effort than what’s been displayed on the field today.


Didn’t watch it, but 77% possession and 11 corners doesn’t seem like a team rolling over.

Re: Rival Watch

Eternal optimist mode on - pressure now on Rotherham with fans expecting win against 10 men.

Set up perfectly for Boro to snatch it on the break.

Bit of a nothing position and watched it on repeat a few times wanting to slag of the referee, but can’t find a way.

Re: Rival Watch

It’s a rare error from the legend Sutekh, but away from that distraction, I agree with the posters who think our best chance is overhauling Rotherham. I think Wigan will want to put a nice send off for their fans and Maloney seems like a good man who will want his team up for it. So Reading playing ...

Re: Relegation

Good chance this is going to the last day. Will Hudds get 4 points v Cardiff away and Sheffield at home? I wouldn't bank on it. Good to see Sheffield not on the beach by hammering a Preston side still in with a play off shout at start of play. Local derby v Hudds too, And Rotherham could easily los...

Still directly relegating two clubs will be fun.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wigan Athletic (h)

How did we do what we needed to do? We needed to win and we failed to win. We didn’t need to win necessarily. May have been preferable, but hindsight could say it was better going to the last game knowing we had to win. Ummm..... what?? Seriously, if you had a choice between playing for a draw or p...
