Re: QPR (H) Match Thread - Sponsored by Colin

Normally I don't take much notice of stats but this says it all

Reading shots on goal 0 yes ZERO!

Re: QPR (H) Match Thread - Sponsored by Colin

RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I rushed back from work in London and made kick off by 5 mins. Why did I bother. Shame the Royals didn't bother turning up. Awful game, at best two mid table sides. Until 2 seasons ago, I used to go to almost every home game and had season ticket since the Madstad open...

Re: SPECULATION - Dwight Gayle

They've now offered £9m for Andre Gray...if he can't agree personal terms can someone let City know that our number 9 is worth a punt and we would take £9m if they want to pay that much... :mrgreen: absolutely insane money for a players that's not been beyond the championship - he may be pretty goo...

Re: Season tickets 2015/16 renewals . . .

Didn't this season cost £375? At £25 a match that's 15 games so you can miss 7 matches and an ST is still saving you money at those prices. If the ST is still less than £400 I'll probably still renew even though I usually miss something like 6-8 games a season (and don't usually go to away games). ...

Re: Semi final tickets?

Seems fairly simple to me - club have understandably overestimated the demand for tickets and have been let down by the fans. They stated on their website that with 100k members they didn't anticipate going to GS, also stating anyone with 300 points should be ok into the bargain so to get to 50+ po...

Re: Semi final tickets?

That 100,000 figure was always a massive red herring. Huge numbers would be inactive , lost, never used, dead or multiples. I probably have a dozen cards obtained over the years for various reasons but don't know where most are now. I doubt that is at all unusual. true, probably best they do an audit

Re: Semi final tickets?

Clearly, it's all about the +1s, in all the previous occasions, I know lots of people who brought their children, parents, grandparents for what was probably their only game that season. Additionally people who don't follow Reading went with a group of mates for the crack. Once you make it difficul...

Re: 43rd biggest club in the country

I was just about to post this having just looked at the Daily Mail. Reading languishing in 43rd sport behind the likes of Notts County, Blackpool, Huddersfield, Wigan, Preston and just above the likes of Bury, Barnsley and Bradford. Worst list ever and proves the Daily Mail doesn't like Reading FC ...

Re: Adkins - Pros and Cons

I'd say most of Adkins' tenure has been somewhat soulless and underwhelming. Under McDermott we were always competing at the top end of the Championship. McDermott was supposedly sacked on the - naïve and idealistic? - belief that it would allow us to bring in a superior manager and a superior styl...

Re: Adkins - Pros and Cons

I didn't renew my season ticket this season First time in 15 years First time in over 25 years I've been to just 2 games before Xmas Why, because I refuse to watch this awful football. This infatuation with possession. Fine if you are barca or bayern Munich psg if you have world class players but we...

Re: BFTG Huddersfield

Agreed about beardy. Morrison needed a bit more time with the U21s. Well off the game today. Good job that Pearce was having probably his best game this season. Hector struggled to get into the game, but can't really be blamed as he's a defender. Second half was ours, and I think the main change wa...

Re: BFTG - Barnsley

Despite our current league position, the past year at RFC surely must claim to be the ultimate in 'dull and uninspiring' as claimed by Schards around 5 years ago. I would take half the skill,endeavour and attitude of that set of players over this bunch of mishaps any day. In fact you probably have ...

My mate and I saw mcanuff after the game - fair play took a pic of my mate with him - he looked well pissed off

Told him not to worry, just forget this game and win Saturday

As an aside, what does Adkins do at half time as it doesn't work!

Re: Sheff Weds - Back from the game

Poor poor game. Pearce got turned for pace a countless amount of times in just 10 minutes, red card could be a blessing for the next 3 games, Hector getting his chance. Alf and Pog both really wasted good chances in the first 10 minutes, should have been 2-0 up before the pen. Credit to Adkins for ...

Re: Wednesday Match Thread - Sponsored by Hal Robson-Canoe

Williams MOM, his substitution along with Akpan's with one eye on QPR. Might prove to be a shrewd move, we'll see. McCarthy's mistake was the nail in our coffin. Otherwise, it was the standard solid display from him. Pearce is great when the ball is in the air or he can bully strikers off the ball,...
