Snowflake Royal How will we know the difference?


Because we should be expecting to be fighting near the top of league one, not the bottom of the championship. I can see the smile on your face from Reading at the prospects of playing Stevenage next season.

Grow up jimmy. There's a nice lad.


Haha! You're good at making me laugh and lightening up. But we shouldn't be losing to clubs punching above their own weight. The players deserve all the criticism they get. I hope you don't sit next to me next season! :wink:

We haven't lost to any of them yet.

I don’t do sitting. And I back the team vocally at the stadium... if that's not your thing fair enough.

Oh I back them vocally. If they're good I clap them and if they underperform I give them the abuse they deserve. Mind you I'm pretty good at giving abuse out as every single one of the players who started today is shit

Going to a Reading game that takes me less than 30 mins to get to!

Youngsters getting a lot more game time, Jon Clarke, abbey, jamari Clarke, big kelv, Abrefa, either of Anderson or cbc in goal, camera. Maybe scott, osorio, holtzman, Senga. Some of which are reading boys. Seeing them grow as players hopefully the team grow. If not then maybe sell a few off after promising starts to actually get money back in and start running the club sustainable Again. Them players with a dozen plus senior players should be more enjoyable to watch.

Hopefully a young manager who wants to play a bit of football and give the exciting youngsters freedom. Someone like O’Shea who wants to win (heard lots of good things about him from someone at the club when he was there) and can coach a defence.

Looking forward to what looks like a few more local games and different teams we not played in a while. Hopefully winning some games or at very least watching football with enjoyment again rather then being bored before it starts.


Getting a run out in the jpt and not having to stop football for international breaks!

I work in Bristol and most of my colleagues are Gas fans, so that will be fun next season.....

And not to forget some cheaper tickets rather then £35 for qpr away

With all this lovely spring weather I forgot we will have to start getting used to postponed games again. Most of the teams in this crap league don’t have undersoil heating. Although we at least may get to play some games on the international break so it’s not all doom and gloom.

Really?! I genuinely just assumed pretty much everyone did in the EFL these days, barring 2 or 3 traditionally non league clubs up in L2 right now

I`m actually quite looking forward to it, you never know we might win some games.

Playing in the first round of the FA cup against potentially non league minnows will be interesting.

Holmes, McIntyre and Azeez could all do with a season in League One. Yiadom, Carroll, Ince and maybe Mbengue/NGW/Hoilett/Southwood if they want to stay around too. The foundations are there depending who wants to stay and who doesn’t.

How dare you. Haven't you heard that League One is a paradise and we should be jumping for joy at the prospect of playing there?

Over half the grounds have no under soil heating and lack drainage facilities if it rains so I'm expecting a few away games to be called off.

Hopefully we can flush out most of the squad who have a losing mentality embedded into them. Then we can start signing hungry players with a winning mentality
