Re: Should John Terry be reinstated as England Captain?

The reports today are that Rio is fuming about the way Capello stripped him of the captaincy, with him learning from the press rather than the Manager. Regardless of the rights or wrongs of giving the captaincy back to Terry, not speaking to your CURRENT captain is mental and all too typical of Cap...

Re: RUMOUR - Mills?

I'd take £3m for Mills, though I'd hope for £4m. He's not lived up to his price tag and that is pretty good money for a player who isn't a great deal better than the other options. We have Pearce and presumably this would allow us to sign both Ledge & Khiz permanently. Morrison as back up with ...

Re: PFA Footballer of the Year

Modric would get my vote but doesn't it all depend when the votes were cast?

If it was around new year then Bale has to be a favourite, otherwise Vidic and Nasri

Young player has to be Wilshere doesn't it?

Royal With Cheese
SpaceCruiser What difference does it make if he grew up and still lives/appears in Reading?

It makes a difference if you call him a Reading born multi millionaire which he clearly isn't

I also hear he comes from Polish/FRENCH desendency.


Not sure there's any Polish in him tbf

Re: Arsenal Barca

Barcelona, for all their wonderful football, try to get oppposition players booked and obtain free kicks in advantageous positions illegally. I'm not sure how anyone can argue against that. I'm not saying that there aren't elements within the team that cheat (Busquets against Inter last year being ...

Re: Arsenal Barca

It does suit their game to get players booked and/or sent off though. That's the point of the diving and histrionics.

Re: Arsenal Barca

The things that grates me with Barcelona is the unnecessary play acting whenever they get challenged. Yet when the exact same happens to them, they are all over the ref complaining.

Re: Arsenal Barca

Messi is probably the most fouled player in the world but he never complains about it....just gets back up and carries on. He truly is a superb player but i feel Barca rely on him far too much. There's a truth in that. The way they play they are reliant on someone having the ability and speed of th...

Came up on my iPod as I walked to work yesterday. It got me wondering what the hell happened to it. Why did the club stop playing it before matches and more importantly, can we please have it back?

Re: Brynjar made available for a loan move

If he wants to go somewhere and play some football then all power to him. He may decide he'd rather stay here, play the odd reserve game and continue with his coaching badges.

Either way the man is a legend and his nutmeg of Insua is one of the highlights on my RFC spectating career so far
