"Al Habsis in ISIS" or words to the equivalent made me feel a bit sick. Coupled with what I was hearing at Salmon and Ball, and our fans have properly regressed to neandthals. Absolute divs I was in the home end right along side the Reading fans. For the Reading goal someone threw a batte...
There was something I meant to add to the previous post but didn’t, and it concerns Pereira. I gather from this board that he’s a bit of a fans’ favourite and no doubt there are good reasons for that, every keeper plays a blinder occasionally. There was some evidence yesterday, albeit scant that he ...
Well, that was the first Reading game I’ve been to in the Couhig era. We can play better than that right? We must be able to as we’ve won some games? I had to buy a couple of tickets in the home section and was sitting in the top tier near the halfway line adjacent to the away fans on the left. Dran...
To add insult to injury I went to the early Norwich game today, which they lost 0-2, with the fans attempting to storm the directors box after the game. What on earth is going on at Norwich this season? New American owner, tick, poor recruitment, tick, sold best players apart from Sargent, tick, ne...

That goal reminded me of the scene in Band of Brothers when Lt Ronald Spiers sprints through the German forces at Foy and the Germans are so surprised and astonished that they forget to shoot him and just look at him mouths agape. The ball being Lt Spiers and the Germans being the Port Vale defenders.
we're chasing the playoffs - how can it be a free hit? They're not 90s AC Milan * *we'll lose obvs In theory we are chasing the playoffs but surely no one really thinks we will achieve it? Precisely. We aren't in shape to make the play offs, if we did make them we're in absolutely no shape to do we...
Often did a great somersault after scoring a goal. Bring back those theatricals to the team Hunty! Jayden Wareham somersaults when he scores. Didn't copy it from Noel though as he used to do it when with Chelsea :lol: yes but, obvs we don’t get to see that too often. C’mon Noel, let’s have players ...
I've seen a few comments this season from opposition fans about how we "celebrate like we've won the cup". Let me put that in context: Our owner is slowly strangling the club, we're not allowed to sign any players and outside a core of 10 or 11 players,our squad is bulked out with teenage...
I think you'll find Rommel was a reasonably decent bloke and well respected by the allies. Apart from being a Nazi of course. In Rommel's case that is debatable in some ways, given he was one of the leading players in the plot to kill Hitler in 1944. He tried to kill my grandad so I’m short on ‘he ...
No respect for the guy. Karacan’s injury (which massively hobbled his career) was not a coincidence. Tetek’s injury (which seems to have effectively ended his career) was not a coincidence. He was a thug of a manager who had no respect for opposing players or officials. That’s the real Warnock, not...
On the plus side we can now roll our eyes and say we wouldn’t be in the relegation zone without the four points deducted. As someone who keeps being asked ‘What’s going on at Reading’ by not wholly sympathetic acquaintances, that’s a tangible bonus.
