Re: 2023/2024 Kit Leaked

The shirt venues should be Reading FC related. Elm Park. Boars Head and Spread Eagle, prematch drinking venues of Robin Friday. Purple Turtle for 2006 promotion celebrations.

Re: Worst ever Reading FC miss

In terms of Reading history the play off final penalty miss v Bolton must be the worst.

Re: January window

Its a football related topic, so i thought i'd use a cheeky "Foul Swoop" in lieu of the more politically correct "Fowl Swoop" :D I do appreciate the correction thought :lol: You guys do know it's actually one fell swoop? Or am I due a whoosh here?! A shocker played by the two of...

Re: January window

Crowbar6753 We could solve all our financial issues in one foul swoop if we were to sell Olise, Joao and Swift in this window, however, it wouldn't be pretty afterwards lol :D


Only asking as I don't know. Foul swoop or fowl swoop? Chickens are fowl and they don't do much swooping.

Re: Goal of the Season 2020-2021

Re: What got you into supporting RFC?! And when you did who was your nearest team?

Family thing. Born and raised in Caversham. Dad supported Reading. Took me to my first game in January 1970 (Bradford one nil win) then Bury the following Saturday. We went to Plymouth away in the February, a one all draw with highlights on match of the day if I recall correctly. Very rare to have l...

Re: BFTG ‘Ull (A)

Good effort and commitment from everyone to hang on for the draw. Speaking as someone who knows nothing about the finer technicalities of football, the problem to me appears to lie with the midfield who just go missing so often when the defence are trying to play it forward. So keeper rolls it out t...

Re: Do You Rate Chris Gunter?

If Gunter didn't already play for us and we signed him for a reasonable fee I'm sure most people here would be pleased/impressed that we had a signed a player who was a first choice selection in an international team that had qualified for Euro 2016.

Re: Return of Sidwell??

I would take Sidwell back if only for the experience and teaching you could tap into to help develop Tish and any other of the midfielders who care to listen. Okay it would be expensive as I'm sure he would want a decent wage but I am suspending reality and assuming the owners now have unlimitedly d...
