Re: 2017/2018 - What went wrong?

Seriously that post is top notch Brain Traysers. The fact we only conceded a few more compared to 2016/17 but scored a lot less says it all. Hardly surprising given your detailed analysis confirms we had considerably less shots year on year. The huge reduction in crosses is the real eye opener thou...

Re: 2017/2018 - What went wrong?

All of the stuff Great post, and really interesting. Just wondering though - how do they determine accuracy for crosses? i.e., if Barrow totally overhits a cross which sails over everybody and gets picked up by winger/full-back the other side - does that count as accurate because it went to one of ...

Re: 2017/2018 - What went wrong?

Excellent post, nice to see somebody using statistics appropriately for a change. Vindicates my long held opinion that Beerens was excellent and freezing him out was a mistake. However, then prepare to strap in (or ‘on’ if you prefer #nohomo), :roll: Shit joke followed up by casual homophobia. Poin...

Re: 2017/2018 - What went wrong?

This is going to be a really long post - its probably more of an 5-10 min 'article style' read than a 20 sec post, so bear that in mind. If you have made it beyond that sentence, then prepare to strap in, and get ready to feast on some juicy analysis. Or just ignore this post entirely and go back to...

LightwaterRoyal Out of Interest. Who is the youngest player to start a league match for Reading?


Think it's Peter Castle, who I believe was only 16 at the time.

Weakest starting line up since since we played our B team away at Watford the game the FA cup semi? Holmes > Zat Knight

Re: MATCHWATCH : Sheffield United (h) sponsored by Tony & Barry Wagstaff

I know everyone is frothing and all... but we were only a saved penalty away from 2-2 and serious momentum. And it sounds like their third was a bit questionable. Whether or not that would have been deserved, or that we would have held on for at least a point is a different matter. Sorry for breaki...

Re: Millwall (a)

If the ticket postal deadline has snuck up on any other London 'nobbers*, you will be pleased to hear tickets will be available at the gate. Surprisingly at the same rate as an advanced booking (£23).

*- also true for unprepared 'nobbers from other areas

Re: MATCHWATCH : Manchester United (a) sponsored by Jaap's return

We are settling a bit now...shame it's half an hour too late.

The first 15 minutes gave me Premier League flashbacks- left winger attacks - gets past Gunter easily - good chance. Bless him, he isn't a 'defensive' right back.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Arsenal (a) sponsored by Davy Crockett

JVDB gives the ball away. Ox scores from out wide, throigh Blackett's legs. If Joey wants fans to stop getting stressed about them playing it around at the back, maybe the players should stop f*cking it up and giving away easy goals Perhaps slightly premature posting from me there, sounds like a ho...

sorry to be a dick but plymouth was 2008. But yes, 19k+ for the first home game after relegation from the prem suggests it could be pushing 20k this time round
