Nah. If we win, at least we can there was nothing more the team could have done, on the day at least.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Barnsley (h)

If the takeover does go through this week, I really hope they announce it before Saturday, so that there can just be a happy party atmosphere from the get-go.

Re: Predictions for this weekend

I'm just hoping that we turn on the style, and get a 3-0 win, whatever happens at Huddersfield. Let's at least finish the season with a bit of a party atmosphere.

Re: why don't more people from Ethnic Minorities support Reading?

Reading has a very diverse population, with 46.5% now belonging to a Black and Minority Ethnic community As we can see the crowd is disproportionately white compared the diverse population of Reading. Why? First off, according to the 2021 census, Reading (the local authority) is 67% white. Secondly...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bristol Rovers (a)

Looking forward to Burnley v2 where we beat Barnsley and word spreads that Orient have drawn to Huddersfield, only to find out after the pitch invasion that they scored a last minute winner. We should never ever be having a pitch invasion for making the playoffs. That's a very tinpot thing to do, l...

On the New-ground-bump-in-form front, was it Darlington whose new ground put them out of existence? I mean, I suppose that’s a bump of sorts?

Re: Rival Watch

I wonder how many people would hang around in a terrible job, where you’re not even certain you’ll get paid each month, because you might have a more impressive CV if you stick around for another year. I’m not going to blame him for moving to somewhere a bit more stable, irrespective of the football...

Furthermore, is he a multi-billionaire, or did he own companies that were formerly worth many billions, all of which are collapsing, and any remaining value from which is locked up in China (a state he specifically doesn't want to find himself in). All just speculation, but Brogue isn't going to mak...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

With the funds he’s being sued for in China i would imagine our football club is of little concern to him. Probably just can’t be arsed with it and the small change the sale creates. My suspicion is that whatever money he can make from selling the club is money he has a chance to squirrel away safe...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Pure speculation on my part, but I don’t reckon that 5 May is Domesday. I reckon the league could suspend us on 5 May (whether or not we’re in the playoffs), but give us one more deadline to complete (mid/late May) before expelling us (with actually still a few days after that because it would take...

I mean, could it be the EFL are still waiting for some kind of documentation from the club before they can consider an extension?

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

The club are now in negotiations with someone who is well known to the FL, and there has been movement forward to complete as apparently there was a survey completed on Bearwood last week, so they should be happy to extend to May 7th. Interesting, Rob Couhig was set to buy the training ground once ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Mansfield Town (a)

blythspartan Someone on x has posted an interesting stat, in that, Bodin is the first person to come off the bench to score for us all season. That doesn’t seem right, but I have no idea tbf.

They must mean the league, because I can think of goals by subs in the cup (Campbell vs Harborough).
