As someone pointed out last season, Olise does not have the Sky Bet flashes on his sleeves. The suggestion was that this was because he is under 18 and so can't be used to advertise gambling. So why does he have the Casumo logo? Here's a good example (also shows him drifting past the Chelsea defence...

Platypuss Blackett went off injured - didn't see how it happened, but did it look like a bad one?

A pull whilst stretching - didn't look too major, and might not even have been an immediate sub had it been a competitive game.

But now he's in the hands of the RFC medical team, so I'd say six months.

I do have a hint of nerves, mainly because the ticket site doesn't seem sure where I've renewed or not. My Loyalty Points details show I have. If I choose "season tickets" from the menu under my name, it shows my seat with a status of "not renewed" If you look at your history it...

Are there any highlights of the goals from the 2 games anywhere? Just found the Posh ones here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e74JTZFykaQ And here are the B'ham highlights ... looks like they outplayed us: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvpsiKAMI-0 Of course the Birmingham City video editors wil...

I bought my ticket over the phone 7 days ago. The ticket office said they hoped to send out the ticket in the next couple of days. Hasn't arrived yet.

tidus_mi2 No idea what Osho was doing there, arm outstretched and Sevilla score the resulting penalty, 1-1

That was Omar Richards, not Osho.

The club have stated quite clearly on several occasions that all adult season ticket holders will receive a new card for this season. For example, the section headed "Will I receive a new Season Ticket for 2019-20?" at: https://www.readingfc.co.uk/news/2019/may/season-tickets-2019-20--join...

Whereabouts in GP is the station going to be? Tried googling around etc but couldn’t find the exact location. Guessing near the A33? Surprisingly enough, it will instead be by the railway line and so not near the A33. Just north of the Kirtons Farm Road bridge. So, how far is the walk to the ground...

Hooper had a trial with Reading and we didn't take him on. OK, so it was in 2005, but the journalist could have written something like "Reading reject Gary Hooper..."

I'm not having that. They might go down. Again.

Anyone know what Xabi Alonso said about tackling? Started off by saying that Carrick and older Scholes would have had better careers if the English weren't so obsessed with blood-and-thunder tackling, then this: "I don't think tackling is a quality. It is a recurso , something you have to reso...

I presume every close season there will need to be a complete review of the clubs comprising each non league step with a view to maintaining some sort of equilibrium which means those on the border lines e.g. Marlow/Bracknell/Fleet/Met Police could find themselves swapping regularly between Souther...

1st goal - scored in time added on because of Wigan's time-wasting cheating. (And it should probably have been 9 minutes added instead of 5.) 2nd goal - scored following a drop-ball awarded because a disgusting Wigan cheat faked a head injury in order to stop a Reading attack. And Wigan then complai...

Match report was on the club website within about 20 minutes of the end of the game. I figure that Royals and Racers has shamed them into action, and deserves congratuations.

21 February 1872 - first ever game
Reading 0 Reading Grammar School 0

Fans afterwards may well have said that we needed a goalscorer, with the probable 1-2-10 formation clearly not attacking enough.

Revised quarter-final list:

30/01/19 (19:45) - Aylesbury United v Maidenhead United
12/02/19 (19:45) - Flackwell Heath v Reading

Well, I've seen him play once. He was atrocious, far worse than any Reading keeper I've seen in the last 20 years. May have improved since.

Weather for Tuesday night looks to be very cold, but not snowing . Snow is coming early Tuesday i believe, and lots of it !! Edit just seen the "countryfile" forecast and not so much a risk of snow as previously forecast- match should go ahead ok. I freely admit that I may have got that o...

Royals and Racers just beat me to this thread today..... Quarter-final update: 15/01/19 - Hungerford Town 1 Slough Town 2 22/01/19 (19:45) - Flackwell Heath v Reading 22/01/19 (19:45) - Marlow v MK Dons 30/01/19 (19:45) - Aylesbury United v Maidenhead United Doesn't look as if the semi-final draw ha...
