Inspired by a feature on Five Live at the weekend. What four words would sum up your (by which I mean Reading FCs) season? I went for Please someone buyout Anton This could be a short pointless thread, or a long pointless thread that might produce a few smiles. What else have you got to do? There is...

Jobi always put maximum effort in to every game and this is really all I ever want from our players. I can't abide passengers in the team who swan about, going through the motions.

Thanks for everything you have done for the club Jobi and good luck with what ever comes next for you.

Arsenal target Alex McCarthy is set to quit Reading. The 24-year-old is seen as a replacement for back-up keeper Lukasz Fabianski, 29, who is leaving.

According to The Sun and BBC

Perhaps this is what Feds tweet about a "fresh start" on Saturday was referring to?

Don't give a toss about Brighton. Don't care who wins the playoffs because, let's be fair, none of the teams in it are going to do anything but get truly hammered in the PL without major surgery. This, by the way is what would have happened to is if we had, by some miracle, gone up this year. The on...

Adkins if he doesn't resign over the undoubted broken promises of the board - with the big proviso that he is allowed to rebuild the team over the summer tailored to whatever budget is available. I am not saying he should be give billions (not that this was ever on the table) but, he should be allow...

He wasn't on air for the Leicester game as was on SKY TV.

Trailer for Wigan game says it Jonnie Saunders as anchor.

Anyone know?

"Ooh watch out lads, if we actually try we might win the play offs and get promoted, at which point, none of us will get our contracts renewed..... so better slow up a bit and protect next years income...."


Too cynical...?

I've been to 3 playoff finals. The second one in Cardiff hurt more than the first. The Dido song "Thank You" montage at the end of the highlights I taped, bringing me to floods of tears every time. Cureton's little smiley face after scoring the first. The Darren Caskey unused sub incident...

One other possible reason to add to the others. As a fan, if your team wins at the weekend, you generally feel good, are happy to watch MOTD (or in our case, 5 seconds on TFLS) and read all about the game you were actually at the previous day. If your team loses, your weekend is less enjoyable, you ...

Royal Biscuitman I remember a time when BFTG threads were sponsored by fictional sponsors.... where have the fictional sponsors gone? Is this going to impact our fictional revenues?

Sorry, tried to edit the title but site not letting me.

Will try and do better in the future if its me thats starts the thread...

Hands up any of you who think we can finish 6th or better with this team? How stupid are you exactly? Officially? I'm a cretin. I was a moron but was promoted to cretin when I demonstrated the ability to correctly type my username and password on here. I am also highly disappointed that our teams p...

It's the current form. 3 points from the possible last 18 at home isn't the form needed to make and even win the play offs.

Doubt we can afford the severence package for Nige so probably not...

Less of a shambles than Tuesday but a shambles non the less. Dreadful mistake by Morro to concede their goal. Generally, the passing was woeful, we gave the ball away far too easily and far too much. Robson Kanu looked uninterested and mainly jogged around the park. Williams was very un Williams lik...

Yup, shambles from the back to the front. Pearce was making a proper effort, as was Jobi. Gorkss had a complete mare and Morro can't come back soon enough for me. McCarthy looked complacent so time for Federici Gunter was ok apart from giving away the first goal (small point but...) Drenthe looked l...

Until our ownership position is resolved, I would rather we didn't go up because (and with all due respect to SJM) the current regime would not strengthen the squad, they would simply keep the money and we would have a season of being the whipping boys again. I am not saying this approach to our fin...

Shouldnt this be in "General Football" since our manager has said nothing is going to happen and he'll be in bed by 10......?
