USA Pearce - Bikey - Cisse Kebe - Karacan - Matejovsky - Harper - Tabb Kitson - Doyle Subs: Duberry, Gunnarsson, Little , Long, N Hunt You can't start with Gunnarsson anymore - takes one of your sub options automatically as he would need to come off, but he is a great holding sub if something needs ...

Do you actually think we will make the play-offs? Another 10 points needed for that to be guaranteed I think. Where are they coming from?!

moo We saw what he really thinks of this club last summer, dont let the ginger freak mug us off

Still, forgive and forget eh?

World Cup Final in 1994 at the Pasadena Rose Bowl. Italy 0 Brazil 0. Mate won a trip to the WC finals (semi Brazil vs Bulgaria, 3rd/4th place and final) as he won Daily Mail Fantasy League football. Most boring game I ever went to, and played in a stadium with no shelter and blazing sunshine in temp...

I work with 2 Stoke season ticket holders and they just don't get him. They thought £5.5m = a goal a game and feel duped. Kits said the price tag wouldn't affect him, but that's been taken out of his hands by the fans. They also think he never wanted to leave Reading, and but for the lure of prem f...

Striker Kitson regrets Stoke move Striker Dave Kitson has admitted leaving Reading to join Stoke City was the wrong decision. Kitson has returned to the Royals on loan for the rest of the season, having signed for the Potters in the summer. "What I needed was a club where I felt wanted, which i...

Reading 0 Ipswich 2

Lots of huff and puff, but a 5 man midfield does for us again.

Not sure if this is mentioned anywhere else but is anyone else very very surprised by this. SC gave the impression at fans forum he was annoyed with Kits comments after he left. Also I think Murts said something similar on his radio show. With Long seemingly coming into a bit of form and I cant ima...

Royalwaster I won't believe it till this is on the OS.

The club sent a text 10 minutes ago: "Royals confirm that the club has agreed with Stoke City to sign striker David Kitson on loan until the end of the season subject to the usual formalities"

LoyalRoyal22 Is number 12 shirt still available?

No.

Number 99 is free. As is 143.

Now confirmed. Welcome to Groundhog day.

Nervy 1-0 win. Lots of possession, not many chances and they miss a couple of sitters on the break.

Matejovsky to chip in with his goal for the season.

the more I think about this (which hasn't been too long I admit) the more this is the ideal game for us. Hundreds of miles and a Tuesday night means we won't have too many stressed souls in the crowd to get nervous. Wednesday had a great win on Saturday. We have all the form of a one legged blind nu...

Bookies usually know what they are talking about. Sporting index is giving a points forecast. I have taken the middle of their range of forecasts and rounded down: 1. Wolves 82 2. Reading 81 3. Birmingham 79 4. Cardiff 76 5. Sheff U 72 6. Preston 71 7. Swansea 70 8. Bristol City 69 9. Burnley 67 10....

Wednesday on fire. We can't score for toffee.

1-0 to us with Armstrong to score against his former city rivals. Early goal which we hang on to.

It happens like that.

Maybe S Hunt/Cisse/Marek/Tabb across the middle would have the right blend of steel and flair? Bikey patroling the back four would top that off for me

If we don't go up Lita, Harper, S Hunt, Doyle, Bikey and poss Marek will leave along with Coppell. It almost doesn't bear thinking about as we would have a new manager and probably half a new side. We would then officially be "in transition" with some muppet like Dowie or Taylor at the hel...
