Re: What is the point in HRK

Looked good again tonight and Blackmanesque finish. Interesting comparison. Blackman was roundly considered to be useless for 2 and a bit years, then it all seemed to click into place, he played brilliantly for 12 weeks and secured a big money move away from the Madjeski as a result. The only diffe...

Re: What is the point in HRK

Agree with others comments. Talented but lazy. I read today that he has decided to put all contract talks with Reading "on hold" to the end of the season. Translation - "I can get a better deal out of Swansea if they don't have to pay Reading a fee for me" Were I the manager, I w...

Re: BFTG - WBA

Fantastic performance and result. Everyone (as Len Goodman would say) gave their all and earned the win in every sense. So one question. Why dont we see this level of effort and commitment every week in the league? This is still basically the same team that was 2nd in the league in September so why ...

Are you a fan or a customer?

Today v Wolves was awful IMHO and I left feeling that I had wasted my afternoon. There was some news coverage this week about whether those who support a football team are fans or customers. My interpretation of a fan is someone who spends money on tickets and merchandise, week in, week out, not car...

Re: Is Kate Winslet our most famous fan

I think Kate Winslet wins it if she actually attended any games but a couple of close contenders: Cilla Black - dont know if she would have called herself a fan but did attend a good few matches in the posh seats with SJM Sir Clive Woodward has been to a few matches (one as my guest) and said he alw...

Re: Who do you want to replace Clarke?

No one has mentioned Ian Holloway.

If we're not going up, then Holloway for the post match interviews.

Clearly capable of bringing passion to a team and did get Blackpool promoted (only to then be hamstrung by his board)

BFTG Everton

Thought we looked every bit as good as them. Our passing and vision is light years from where we were last season. Blackman is maturing very nicely. Tish looks a great prospect. Shame about Al Habsi dropping the shot from the free kick, otherwise, we more than matched them and the prospects for this...

Re: Nick Blackman

I was Shane Longs biggest critic. He couldn't control a ball, first touch was awful, didn't know where the goal was, then, out of nowhere, he's oxf*rd brilliant, cant miss, glides past defenders and a year after being our top scorer and first name on the team sheet, he's worth 6 million quid (12 mil...

Once in a lifetime, never to be repeated. I'm sure Sunderland said the same! Or if you meant never to be repeated by Reading then yeah I would agree.
