Dylan Kerr with shirt over head celebration 1994 - first time this was done I think

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.

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...

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 ...

Long starts!!!!

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 - ...

Lovell & Nogan scoring down there at end of 1994/5 season in 2-1 win.

They were on the pitch after "sack the board" etc as it just about sent them down

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?

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...

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...

Got a feeling we'll be 2-0 up early on and coast to victory

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. Harsh on Hammond - had injury problems but when he played was OK - performed mircales in Cardiff cup game when we were outplayed by a team bottom of league 2. Also ha...

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.

Let's have one of these, too, so people can get the half-time scores.... http://www.cc-phonecards.com/Subbuteo/SET%20C.111%20Half-time%20Scoreboard.JPG Used to love subbeteo - skillful game where you could use real tactics etc - had the old Reading team from 1974. We used to have a league at school...

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...

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

It will be interesting to see if Borini ends up on loan anywhere else - then we will know it was down to tight @rsed chairman/squeaky rather than the player being unavailable for loan.

I've a feeling if we've pulled away from the bottom a bit we may take it seriously for once.

The reason we normally get a championship side is because the odds are higher than a team from another other league!

Very hazy memories of a couple of odd incidents but backed up by my dad a few years ago: 1. He kissed a policeman after scoring V Rochdale - this is in some royals history book I think 2. Chucked a corner flag javlin style into empty terrace (town end) after scoring goal no idea what the game was - ...

I think the 2-2 draw at top of table Preston in Feb(?) was what turned the corner that season.

Fozzy scored a screamer in the first half and Martin Butler scored an equalizing header up our end in second half - think it was his debut??
