Re: TEAMWATCH : Cardiff City (a)

We'll never have a 4-4-2 away with all the injuries we've got. It'll be something like this; 4-2-3-1 Al-Habsi; Gunter Taylor Hector Cooper; Williams Norwood; Blackman Vydra John; Sa Everyone is going on about the center of defence. Hector is experienced enough to lead the line and i'm sure Cooper is...

Re: Hat-tricks

Sutekh Think that means Sa is the first player to score a hat-trick for Reading whose first language is not English.

You really need to get out more!

Re: Ipswich (H) Match Thread Sponsored by Sky Sports 5

All built on the best center back pair in the division. Midfield players have the freedom to play like tonight knowing the rocks behind them stay firm. Sa's hatrick was great, but Tsibola was mom for me, followed by Ferdinand and McShane. Did Ferdinand pull up and signal to the bench at the end? Hop...

Re: Rumour - Nathaniel Chalobah

Good player, could possibly become a great defensive midfielder and I would have been happy to see him in hoops again, but I am much happier to see him go elsewhere and for us to play our own players. Norwood, Quinn and Williams have been superb so far and with Fernandez, Tshibola and maybe Kuhl as...

Re: Reading's best ever left-back?

Kerr's piledrivers away to Blackpool and home to Stoke were particular favourites of mine. Both ended up 4-0 demolitions IIRC. I remember that game. He curled it in with the outside of his boot from about 30 yards, what a finish. Stoke were down to 9 men though, but even if they had 20 they couldn'...

Re: BFTG - MK Dons, home, 22 Aug 2015

Haven't been yet this season, but the impression I get is that we look solid but too slow and predictable. McCleary and Hurtado will sort this out. Getting Pog and Samuel back will give Clarke more options too. I'm very optimistic about the season ahead. Feel the club have recruited very well and Fe...

Re: Birmingham (A) Prediction Thread

0-0 snoozefest. I'd agree with that. Someone else was gunning Pog again. I'll bet he's not earning as much as you think, certainly not £70k/week. Many fans think real life is like a computer game for a footballer. They are human and have families. It's not just about the money. Maybe He likes livin...

Re: Nick Blackman

i like him, tbh i think he is the most talented footballer at the club, he just hasn't been used properly, build the team around him I'd agree. For some reason he keeps getting played out wide when he's better central, or at least that what he thinks/ wants. The problem with being asked to play wid...

Re: Kebe spotted in local Gym

Re: Chamionship close to financialDisaster

It's the down side of the Premier League living in a financial bubble fueled by tv money. That's the price for Bolton trying to compete in the Premier League for 10 years. For 70% of the teams in the league, the longer you are there the more imperative it is that you don't fall off the gravy train,...

Re: 2012-2015: worst signings

Drenthe is the worst signing of all time. Just a lazy mental case who's wasted his talent. Really harsh putting Pogrebnyak alongside him - works his balls off in a way that Drenthe never would. All Pog needs is a decent foil to play alongside him. Guthrie for me every time. Snap. He's a rotten appl...

Re: Ground share

I'd definitely prefer to share with another football club rather than egg-chasers who destroy the pitch! But surely QPR or Fulham would be easier for them as fans will be able to use oyster cards to get there still.
