Funnily enough this ties into a thought I had whilst watching the Stev...

Reading are a has-been club, on the way down. We are on the up even though we lost tonight. Two and a half weeks to get these two, recent, poor results out of our system. Then we go again...not the end of the world. More lessons to be learnt by everyone and we'll come out fighting again. COYB :D A ...

2010s - yeah, nothing - always in at Round 3 and when you get United three times ... long 2000s - i.e. from 1998 2001-02 November (H) vs Welling 1-0 twenty year gap. NGL, don't remember this, and it sounds dreadful. 2000-01 November (H) vs Grays Athletic 4-0 efficiently done 1999-2000 November (H) ...

stealthpapes Saw Chris Armstrong mentioned.

Player of Season 08-09 and revealed, after retiring, he'd been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in that season.

Fondly remembered here.

Yep, Armstrong was class that season. Very sad end to his career.

My boss, a Rangers fan, is buying the (Dracula themed) Whitby Town away kit

Why is this still a thing? Just go look at the facebook post of Sheffield united and tyler bindon welcoming himself to the club and then read all the comments If I was a player and saw that from 'fans' I'd tell the team i wouldn't play for them and go back to Reading where he is wanted Honestly baf...

"Morning Steve"

Couple of Knibbs rumours on Twitter/X. First is more believable, second seems like utter tripe. 3 days ago: @transfercentre9 Norwich City have made an offer of around £1m for Reading forward Harvey Knibbs. The former Villa man got 20 G/A last season in League One from 43 games. He is set to be offer...

Elm Park Kid WiFi has signed back up.

Insider knowledge?

Would it even be a proper transfer window if we weren't linked to Nakhi Wells at some point? Feels like we've been rumoured to be signing him for most of the last 10 years or more

Was playing golf yesterday with some of the inlaws family and friends, one of whom is a referee in the Cheshire league. He's a level 4 qualified ref, which makes him eligible for a few local cup finals. He was saying yesterday that if he was to push on to get the qualiifications to become a Premier ...

Barcelona nearing a deal to sign Athletic Bilbao's Nico Williams. The winger has agreed a six year deal. Made his debut for Athletic at 18 years old. Exciting player. one of my very favourite players, and one of the big driving forces behind Athletic Bilbao's recent good seasons. I thought Barca we...
