OK, commas round the 'bizarrely' would have worked, but given the punctuation-blindness of most people on this board I didn't see the need. And to explain the bizarre nature of his affliction. He lives in Lisbon and Boavista play in Porto, a four hour drive away, when Benfica and Sporting are on hi...

Perhaps he did it deliberately to get publicity - as a "say something some people will find controversial and stir people up to get my name bandied about because no publicity is bad publicity" sort of thing... which would make him a bit like a footballing Oliv*r H*lt really. I find it quit...

My brother lives in Portugal and bizarrely supports Boavista . When he found that we had bought him he said: Ah, that’s a shame – I liked him. Central defender, been playing recently as holding midfelder. Some spectacular own goals (…) Bit of a Bikey then (apart from the own goals). ...just o...

Keepers need a bit of fat to cushion the impact from dives. And Kenny makes one hell of an impact so needs more padding than most. :lol: Vicious circle ! Now there's no call for that... Paddy might be rotund but I don't yet think he's achieved a spheroid shape - and by all accounts he's quite a pea...

I think OMR was lion about the original reason he asked Kingsley to move back - clearly the mane reason he did it was to try and dent Reading's pride

£11million on wages I think I saw somewhere recently. That would have to be a conservative estimate surely... Can;t be too many players not on 10k / week which is 500k / year so a squad of 22 would cost you 11 million. And we have more than 22 pros (OK the junior players won;t be on 10k week !). T...

Huntley & Palmer Let us hope that he doesn't suffer post loanee contract singing illness and his workrate, concentration and ability continue to improve

Did we sign him for a song??!

It was definitely Thompson and I actually think it's quite funny. Nothing to get wound up over. It is funny, but in another match it could have serious consequences if it actually worked. For example Chelsea v Man Utd. Chelsea are winning 1-0 as the match nears its conclusion. Chelsea need to win t...

we have had a blip in our results od late admittly against good oppostion but feel it is about time we start to use our large squad. Hunt works but i feel Oster would be a better replacement, Harper is hopeless bring on Bryan! Also i wouldn't mind seeing Halford in there somewhere even if on the be...

This is not a massive game. Lack of ambition. :lol: in all seriousness though it IS a massive game - in the (probably slightly misquoted) words of SSC himself, "every Premiership game is a cup final to us" ...and rightly or wrongly I think MANY people feel there's a lot more riding on the...

Halford may be at least on the bench this wekend if Murts doesn't make it. http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsDetail/0,,10306~996551,00.html? Graeme Murty is hoping to shrug off an injury to face Portsmouth this weekend. The skipper picked up a toe problem in training earlier this w...

Some very significant results throughout the season but Man City away was a very good performance, we rode our luck at times but 2 fanastic passes by Sidwell/Harper and Leroy finished superbly. As bad as Portsmouth hurt, Wigan was worse. We never win at Portsmouth anyway, very difficult place to ge...

Best: Reading 6-0 West Ham Reading 3-1 Spurs Chelsea 2-2 Reading Worst: Reading 0-2 Everton Reading 1-2 Blackburn Wigan 1-0 Reading Those are fair enough shortlists - now suppose you've got to choose just one from each - which would it be?! It's interesting to me that people are going for the 3-1 v...

Was just sat here thinking, and ended up wondering what people on HNA? think is our best result so far of our Premiership campaign? Seems like a question that could have an easy answer with our 6-0 defeat of West Ham at home BUT is a thrashing of an out-of-form team in a home match a better result f...

I remember that silly thing about so many Doyles to one Shevchenko. Which was LOLaughable - you can only compare Doyle to Sheva once Doyle has won European Footballer of the Year. Hmm... let me see - they're both strikers, they've both started their UK Premiership campaign this season; yes, I can s...

If anyone thinks I have too much time on my hands, to come up with all this cheese-related cr*p, take a look at this http://www.alltooflat.com/serious/cheese/ ...

Oh and Reading are on a break... Little's been released down the right, goes past one, then another, oh that's a lovely cross in, nice touch by Sidwell on to LITA... IT'S LEEROY LITA WITH THE SHOT... LEEEEER... DAMM!! ER... he didn't score... the keeper just managed to get the PARM 'IS 'AN to the ba...

Just thought it might be fun to look at a couple of statistics: Leroy Lita cost £1,000,000 and has scored 7 premiership goals so far in the 06/07 season; which works out at a cost of £142,857.14 per goal (let's say that's about one hundred and forty thousand pounds per goal). Didier Drogba cost £...
