Well what can I say - It's been a struggle getting to games this last season. Sadly I have found that having a lad playing at a high level kills your chances of watching any team regularly other than watching him play. So I was really looking forward to this one. As many have said the defence must h...

Another one here for Reading 4 Plymouth 3.

Simod Cup v Coventry was a close second.

Another mention here too for Reading 7 Barnsley 0, not for tension but just total enjoyment without pressure.

Congratulations to Leamington FC, promoted to the Southern Premier League as Champions. As with AFC Wimbledon, it's another story of triumph out of adversity, and for those interested I've pasted a piece that was posted on the Marine forum by one of the supporters. "It is a story of fact, rumo...

We're going. Booked in the hotel for Thursday and Friday, got a manicure and pedicure sorted, then taking in Leamington at Marlow on Saturday afternoon (worth going to watch if some of you want to watch some Saturday footie - Guy Sanders is playing for them)

Carlisle, midweek, early 80's, in fancy dress.

I think there were 27 of us on the coach.

I posted this on General Football at the beginning of August: Went to see Shrewsbury v Stoke City today, and managed to have a word with Kits (more later on that). He is like a lost soul. Started off brightly with a flashed header on 2 minutes that just missed to the right. Missed a sitter when the ...

Taken directly from the Shrewsbury board. Makes Saturday interesting! "So, Manchester United win The World Club Championship to be officially crowned the best club team on Earth. Until they were beaten by Derby County that is Now the accolade (or 'belt') has passed to them. All domestic, Europe...

How was his english? In the interview I saw on Sky he seemed to stuggle. The lad was suprised at how quietly spoken he was. Came across as, for want of a better word, a gentle individual. Didn't seem as if he struggled at all with his English. Perhaps in a more relaxed environment he's fine, as opp...

My youngest lad's coach attended an FA young coaches course this week (he's only 16). At the course were three players, one from Watford, one Villa and our own Cisse, acting as football ambassadors for young coaches. He was helpful, friendly and full of help and advice. Good to hear that players are...

yuomi kits heart was never with us....cue gamorrah.

Having spoken to him since he left you couldn't be further from the truth. I tend to believe him rather than you!

If any manager other than Fergie had gesticulated at the Reading fans in the way he did, they would have been charged by the FA. Man Utd scream blue murder at any hint of a club sniffing around their players, yet they seem to be able to unsettle as many players as they want. Their seeming "enco...

Cant go tonight because its too cold.....U PANSIES My 9 year old is so allergic to the cold he requires an epipen and is on medication every day of his life! Makes life interesting, especially as he's a goalkeeper, and he'd never had a reaction until he was mascot at Brum away last season. We'll be...

My eldest's team manager was at the game. He'd decided to go to have a "break" while visiting his sister and her family. An awful, two footed, all out lunge. Mark is rather enjoying his "I was there to see history" moment! Jesus, how depressed do you have to be to want to holida...

Tottenham planning swoop.

I'll raise you a Leamington FC. Currently top of the Midlands Div 1 (next tier down I think), Played 19, won 17, drawn 2, GF 56, GA 14, 53 out of 57 possible points (and it should have been 55). My lads play for the Leamington Brakes junior teams that they are linked to, so we go when we have free d...

Laughable isn't it, Bikey does next to nothing wrong, 3 match ban for violent conduct Morgan nearly kills someone with a shocking elbow that is clear as day, booking, no ban. And the officials and people that run this game want respect? They can all FCUK OFF in all honesty. My thoughts exactly AP S...

Sigurdsson going back to Royals Reading have turned down Shrewsbury's request to extend the loan spell of Iceland Under-21 midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson at the Prostar Stadium. Shrewsbury boss Paul Simpson told BBC Radio Shropshire: "I'd like to have kept him for another month, but Reading want ...

Gylfi refused permission to play for Shrews in Cup.

On a lighter note, he's getting driving lessons round the stadium car park after training from one of the Shrews players.

Well done Leamington FC who made it 10 out of 10 league wins from the start of the season yesterday. http://www.leamingtonfc.co.uk/league_display.php I wonder what the record number of wins from the start is at this level, anyone know? Their associated Brakes U10's are hot on their heels with 7 out ...
