Re: Next Six League Games - Post Bolton (H)

The Oxford game will probably be postponed due to international call-ups again. So we will have 3 away league games in a row followed by 3 at home

Re: Charlie savage confimred

Snowflake Royal Brebner was great



He was a decent guy as well and I got to know him when he lived locally .

Work commitments meant that I didn’t have a season ticket at the time but when I could get to a game I could just call him up and he would put some tickets in the office for me.

Re: Do the people of Reading care?

You only have to look at the racial diversity of the people in Reading and compare it to the typical crowd at the Mad Stad to start to understand the issue. Very few Reading fans actually live in the town. I recall previous surveys that showed only a small percentage do. I’m in West Berkshire and t...

https://twitter.com/smujjii87/status/1575624240623390721?t=JblQRxGbsh3tO2OOGJsypw&s=19 Do we really have a squad of 25? I presume a 25 man squad is the same for every club in the FL and not just enforced on clubs in breach of ffp? Also does a club name its 25 man squad or are there some other r...

Re: Rival Watch

Nah oxf*rd em. I remember when they were relegated from the prem. and we played em on the opening day. John Gregory in charge and ravenelli was playing for them 2002 I think. We’d just been promoted from division 2 (old money). I remember reading in their programme something along the lines of. ‘Yo...

Re: Rumour - Aldofo Gaich

RG30 Is he even likely to get a work permit? Sounds like a complete non-starter to me.



I believe he has Italian dual nationality so that should make a difference

Re: The hardest player to ever play for Reading?

The Cube Pretty sure Hurlock is the answer in my lifetime, but don't forget Dave Madden.


Terry Hurlock is the correct answer but I clearly remember a wild Dave Madden tackle in front of the southbank and I turned to my Dad and said goodbye Dave.

It was bad and I don’t think he played for us again

Re: Paul Canoville get well soon

Paul would have become a Reading legend if he not got injured.

He was an amazing talent and an even bigger character

Hope he pulls through

Re: Relegation Watch

Straight red too. That's a central defender that's out for the 3 remaining games. Not necessarily, I thought we went over this? Indeed - more likely to be 4 games. I think it's 2 games. BBC are saying 4 but think that's wrong. Dean was sent off for denying a goal scoring opportunity which is a 1 ma...

Re: Season Defining Moments

Think they had two sent off and another went off through injury so played against 8 men for the last 10 minutes or so. Couldn't believe we didn't score. No it was 3 sending offs First, I must say that It seems odd that i’m joining in to a rational discussion that involves double d. Secondly, it was...
