Lets not forget Gerrard with his diving too then. Although that's ok because he plays for Liverpool.
Why should I care about Gerrard? I support Reading!?! As you will know from all your time on this board, Reading has never played Liverpool in a 1st team match of any kind, so I couldn't comment on his alleged diving antics. Should he perform such acts against us in the three games scheduled for this season, I shall of course be happy to include him in the hall of infamy. Idiot.
Spot on. I think the boy is on the wrong board.
Compared to Man U Chelsea were poor. Reminded me of Gillingham under Pullis with a bit of 1980s West germany thrown in (diving, constant dissent, time wasting, the bench not giving the ball back - dear me they must have been scared!!)
Actually compared to Man City Chelsea were poor.
Their fans were sh*t as well. when are these really noisy away fans going to turn up because no one has matched Plymouth yet?!
No away fans will turn up and make much noise due to the tiny away allocation. It's clear the rest of the ground couldn't hear Reading fans singing 'Divers Divers Divers' in Y24, 25 and 26 so what chance do even less away fans have of making much noise?
The best away fans will be United, Spurs, Everton, Pompey and Liverpool.
You'll have to wait for a cup game where the away side gets the whole end, or untill the ground has been extended and the away allocation is increased before you get away decent away support.
I recall Stoke, both Bristol clubs and Millwall bringing some impressive away turn outs in the late 90's when teams had the whole of the South stand.
Good days, no glory hunters, no drums, no jester hat wearing mongs, just proper fans.
