Re: Reading FC Womens World

tidus_mi2 Is there one or two promotion spots? Because it looks like Wycombe have the title secure at this point.

I think someone on here (probably R&R) said that it is one promoted plus the "best runner up" from a few leagues go up. How we are shaping up for that, I have no idea.

Re: General enshittification of the club?

Online content: Somewhat better in this regard (the pre-match stuff, for example), but there are still issues. Very limited coverage of the development teams, even to the point it's not obvious there's a U21 or U18 game going on (at least from the club's platforms). We typically at least got U21 hig...

info@farwayhideaway Let's face it. Americans know nothing about football.

Neither did JM, he said so himself. The difference is he got people in who knew how to do their jobs.

Re: Richardson out

2nd in the form table yet languishing in 10th? The buck has to stop at LR's door for this discrepancy. One more game to turn it round or I expect a sacking. That's the spirit. He needs to drop the FL through a timeslip so it starts 12 games ago, can he do it though? I'm sure AI could sort something...

Re: Reading FC Womens World

Up to 2nd. in table, Pity there's no chance of catching Wycombe who having only dropped 4 points this season (all to us) must be the promoted club this season. But what a turn round from last season, well done. everybody.

Re: Rival Watch

It's more like 90 miles for us, but the Bescot is a good shout - he'd enjoy watching the traffic going over the flyover. He will have plenty of time to study every vehicle as it stops and starts along the M6. Maybe you can get him to count the number of lorries compared to the number of cars that p...

Re: Rival Watch

I'm quite disappointed that all of the League Two clubs close to the Forest of Dean are doing so badly this year ('ksake, Newport!), as my son is desperate to go to an away game (he's young and foolish), and I don't think we're quite up to trecking to Lincoln or Barnsley yet. I'm not sure Swindon o...

Re: US Political situation - Any impact on Reading FC?

If our government is consistent (hard to imagine, I know) and Trump does invade Greenland then it will sanction the US as it did to Russia.. Then all American owners of British Football clubs will have to sell up. Can't see sanctions happening though.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Burton Albion (h)

While I love Savage, and he's a big player we want to go up with, we can survive selling him in the summer with Rino and Fraser on the books. Comfortably. I conquer, Wing had his best game of the season against Burton and i wonder if that's down to having Fraser by his side who is a natural DCM? I ...

Re: You can’t say I didn’t warn you!

Players of Olise’s quality don’t come along every 3 years and we’d be selling for about 1.5m to a champ club now rather than 10m to a prem team with us being L1 In the Championship they came along about 1 in 10 years, let alone L1, so completely agree. Where's our next big money Academy sale? Garci...
