Would Steve Sidwell please show some solidarity to his team mate and stop buying The Mirror! Likewise it might help if we could get a Whitley boycott! Basically I'm sick of the crap the mirror generally spouts and it's the one paper I will never buy under any circumstances. Journo's like Holt are t...

Whats better news is that for a company that knows very little news on the subject they have a photo of JM and Bennett from yesterdays press conference as the main picture on the home page of their own website!

JUST HEARD ON SKY SPORTS NEWS at 10:10 this morning, Wednesday 31st January.... We're just hearing news that we're getting er some news that Alan Bennett might be joining Reading from Cork City. We're just hearing news about that. We'll get you more news when we hear about it but that's litually all...

Hunt's shirt to lose at the moment. I think he's put in some really good performances that have balanced the side rather well despite the lack of crosses. I really don't think defenders like him and aren't sure quite how to handle him which is always useful. Like others have said, would've been shoc...

How can I be racist, I have black slaves Reality is though, whilst having black friends doesn't mean you're not racist it's harder to claim not to be racist without black friends I suppose. Get bored with the whole thing to be honest. I have nice friends - don't really give two hoots about their dn...

Maybe thats the solution to out left back 'problem' defensively - get a new one and move Shorey forward into Convey's position - god he was devastating today having had the defensive duties taken away from him (by West Ham's dreadful performance).

I have just had a look on google earth and the Madstad looks clear of any fog at the moment.. Fingers crossed it stays that way for sat.. Isn't the image on there about six months old? Real time i belive, give me the post code of where you are now, go outside and wave up in the air, I'll zoom in an...

Might have something to do with the club's insurance policy? I hope not. Treatment at the RBH is generally excellent as well as being free , and the main thing with an appendix is getting it out before it bursts. I love people who think the NHS is free - you should see my National insurance contrib...

An awful lot less than Alan Shearer was on. Shearer probably earns more off the beeb than Murty does and whilst Murty undeniably is paid well enough for a good lifestyle now, it isn't like he's been on megabucks for years to see him out to retirement! Murts will need a job going forward and will be ...

But the council didn't miss the opportunity to use their powers to steal some of our parking by insisting that we turn it over to park and ride! Which can be very usefull on matchdays if you work in central Reading. I park up in the park and ride at 8.40 in the morning, don't pay to park and just p...

The Whiff is coming back???? Oh I don't know, bloody plastics jumping on the bandwagon now that we're successfull and enough people turn up at games to actually cover the printing costs - where were they when we were shit? :lol: Seriously though, great to see it back. I for one will admit that I nev...

You were in the pics of the 'boro game if you look closely. It's just that as I couldn't make it they grafted a picture of my face over yours. Took them quite awhile to spot you but ultimately they thought it worthwhile.

I can see their reasoning, Brammal Lane saw the home side only lose 3 times as many games as at the Madejski, concede only just over 50% more goals than Reading and score a wapping 75% as many as the Royals which would make them pretty damn formidable you'd think. Except that's worse than Reading, a...

Sorry, UTDSTEVE - there was a third one wasn't there? Agbonlahor at the end. That was up the other end and I can honestly say I have no idea. That's the one I was referring to - he was onside & had oceans of space. Whilst no one followed him because they saw the flag, he had so much room he wou...

The thing I'm proudest about is that pundits (not just MOTD) believe we provide entertainment. Both games have been described as cracking games now and I'm really pleased that we have continued the style of football that won us the championship as it's great to watch. Yep, we need to strengthen our ...

Hmmm, Liverpool, Champions League Cup Final, 3-0 down at half time. Might just be up there I was talking about our comebacks, this isnt anywhere near the Champions League comebacks in the past for Man U or Liverpool :wink: Ahh, ok. Getting to the premiership after Terry Bullivant and Tommy Burns mu...

Doyle and Kitson. Lita looked very good yesterday - in some ways better individually than Kitson as a striker but I thought Kitson held the ball up well and that we looked a better team with him on the pitch.

We go a long way back with Spurs - we were both in the Southern League together at the beginning of the last century! ...and the end of the end of the century before that. However the other clubs we played against in the League in the 19th century have since sunk into foootball oblivion - Ilford, C...

Slim pickings I know, but help yourself.
