I do feel like this season it would be a step too far. We'd need so much work and have only very recently got a y confidence and form together. Our winning mentality would be very fragile. A solid season, strengthen and promotion next year or the one after would be more ideal IMO. We'd have a bette...

Owner doesn't like selling, very much an aim to go up this year so this is very doubtful 8) https://twitter.com/jonathanl50/status/1215275383857274881?s=21 Very nice to hear. This season and next feel very make or break in terms of our future. Go up and we have the backing (and core team) to become...

https://twitter.com/TalkReading/status/1214961204483022850 We've got the hardest next 6 games in the league. After that 6 we have Brom (2nd), Wednesday (8th), Leeds (1st), but after that we play every team from 16th to 24th in a 9 game run. In 9 games time if we're 5-7 points off the playoffs we sho...

"His level"? Top end of Div 1 = bottom end of Championship so yes it is probably his level. Oxford really are becoming a Reading rejects team but are doing very well and it would be good to have them back as a local derby next season. Would be a big fan of Oxford and Wycombe coming up aut...

May as well give Oxford the title now not surprised, when I saw the rumour thought that would be where he would end up. Probably his level. "His level"? Top end of Div 1 = bottom end of Championship so yes it is probably his level. Oxford really are becoming a Reading rejects team but are...

If the phone caller was, say a plumber, you would have most likely said “there’s some guy (or bloke) on the radio says we should have picked the first team”. So was the problem really in what he said, or the fact he was a company director? Just asking. The issue is that he was an absolute melt. He’...

Westwood52 Company director on the radio moaning that we didn’t pick the first team.

I give the radio callers, bar the 13 year old and the one who lived in Blackpool a 2/10. They didn't swear, no audible dribbling, but utter melts otherwise

Aluko was offensively poo

oxf*rd me, what a triple save from Cabral. And then at least one more cracker later on as well. Ejaria with the feet and a final ball too. And more from Blackett. Sweet. Agreed on all this. Came here to praise Ejaria, unaware that his loan deal included a permanent transfer in the summer, which is ...

I'm a big fan of Charlie Adam, mainly because of how wound up opposition fans get about him being much better than their CMs.

Having to tackle Ejaria in the box is an absolute nightmare.

Just seen those saves, a marginally worse keeper would have let in all 3. Lets hope he finds a way to keep this amazing form up.

Obvs not wanting to get carried away but if we can pick up say 9 points in Jan, then we’ve a relatively friendly run in It’s not out of the question to at least challenge for that 6th place The game in hand is crucial, win that and we're 5 points off 3-6, which keeps us in the mix until very late o...

29% possession yet winning 2-0. Lovely stuff.

Are there any streams floating about?

The league is ridiculously tight this year. We're 11 points and a game in hand away from 3rd. So if we win our game in hand we'd have half a season to make up 8 points. In this league, in this year you just need a few little bits of luck to separate a bad season from a good one. PNE, Fulham, Forest ...

Anyone have a stream to share?

Oxford
Swindon

Obvious top 2.

Then I'd probably put three of Wham, QPR, Southampton, and Bristol City to round out the top six, although I have no real strong feelings towards any of them.

Rubbish draw, not a glamour tie or an easy tie.

I'm always a fan of more southern sides in the league, but can't realistically see them coming above mid table. They've had a relatively easy start to their campaign, but come up against Leeds, Swansea, Fulham, Derby, Bristol, WBA, Preston in a row (1, 2, 5, 4, 8, 6), which is the sort of run that c...
