Re: Do the people of Reading care?

A General Election isn't that far away now. You'd have thought the local MPs would have been bright and cynical enough to spot that they're some potential votes in this, even if they don't actually care about the club in reality. He won't in Reading West, he almost resigned the other week.matt Rhon...

Re: Rival Watch

Why is everyone assuming we are going to win loads of games and it will be great fun going to Fleetwood? We don’t even have a manager. We have a handful of players under contract most will be sold because we can’t afford there wages in this league. It’s going to be a miserable season if we finish i...

Re: Pauno out

I’m struggling to suppress the conclusion that he doesn’t know how to put a team together to compete in this league. And if that’s the case then we need someone who can, otherwise we are fcuked.

Re: Who is your favourite RFC broadcaster of all time?

North Somerset Royal My favourite isn't listed. Brian Roach covered games at Elm Park back in the pre BBCRB days when Radio Oxford covered the Reading area. Great commentator who was also a true RFC fan


But what is your view on BBC Somerset

Re: MATCHWATCH : Luton Town (a)

andrew1957 I thought today was supposed to be free to air if you have BT WiFi but have tried logging in to my BT account but it keeps saying I need to pay £25 for a monthly pass which is not worth it for one match. Any ideas?


Don't bother it is crap coverage

Anton took money!!

For a few years many fans said he took money from the club

Sack the Stam

Is it time for a protest at his parking space?

FWIW we seem to have decent youngsters coming through, mostly English, local players.
That's the future, not expensive signings.
