Re: The Academy/Development squads watch thread 2015//16

Good info on the OS today covering the Holzman and Cooper clans. Apprently Alan Cooper (played for Reading 1969-72) is Louie Holzman’s grandad and Jake Cooper is his uncle. And then there’s Gary, Steve and Mark Holzman… https://www.readingfc.co.uk/news/2022/june/30/one-of-our-own---it-s-a-family-af...

Re: Squad Watch 2022/23

Sounds like a bit more in the Bowen interview No Kia making decisions apparently, solely Bowen and co. Will give it a listen Yep, essentially Kia got some players here who we had no right to get but it is down to Bowen/Carey now. Kia may still be used if it will help a deal that they want. Players ...

Re: Jamie Shackleton loan

This would be a great signing for us tbh. Hopefully, we can keep it quiet from Cardiff and Stoke. Other than Ian Harte have we ever signed any other players who have played for Leeds? Not usually a side we do business with. Think the following have turned out for both Reading and Leeds and various ...

Fox Talbot Pisa 2-0 up after 15. George plays but hasn’t scored.


Now 2-1. Monza need at least a draw, I believe.

Re: 2006 v 2012 21st May

Yeah, it was lovely and sentimental - I wish some of the current team were there to see what it COULD be like and feel a happy stadium. Crowd was 8500 and great to see so many old shirts. Lita apparently still playing decent non-league and it showed. Doyler hasn't lost his touch either. Some crackin...

Re: Berks and Bucks senior cup 2021/22

Was Harper playing for Ascot? (I don’t even know if he is still there tbh.) And did Chris Ellis’ long throws create problems? (They kill Windsor every time we play them.) Harper in prog, not on pitch. The 20, presumably, had as good a long throw as I’ve ever seen but we dealt with it ok. Ascot near...

Re: Rival Watch

Just went to watch Wycombe v MK. I really hope Wycombe can make it back up. I was surprised to see John Swift at Adam's Park. Probably gone to watch his mate McCleary. Wycombe were a great watch tonight. Wish we had their spirit, energy, crosses, corners. And a five minute turn from 40 year old 20 ...

Re: Next seasons kit choice?

I reckon you're right, Hendo. They would have probably announced if we were changing supplier. My only request is that the EFL change the design of the numbers so they are not broken up into three parts. I know they have to have an overly-designed typeface and all that, but if we have all-round hoo...

Thanks, watching this on small screen with no sound.

Looks the best we’ve played all season! Plenty of bite and some good attacking moves.

As a rule just audio without a vpn, but there is sometimes a deal for video, but usually publicised as such. Balls -when did that change? I was relying on paying a tenner to watch this on Royals TV (in addition to my ST which I can;t use tonight). Do I have to become a Stoke fan for the night to wa...

Re: Reading FC Womens World

On a completely separate note, does anyone know what sort of revenue the women's game brings to the club? I heard off someone that apparently it's meant to be a good source of revenue for the clubs, but I've never worked out where from considering crowds and gameday revenue is significantly less th...

There doesn't need to be violence to send a message. The protest against Terry Bullivant started with about 5 people running on to the pitch with a banner and just sitting down on the centre circle.

Re: 36 years ago today...

Greatest 15 minutes football ever. Absolutely wild by the end. People injured jumping up and down the terraces. Knew a fella who left at 0-3 and missed the football experience of a life time. 20-2-2 62 pts before New Year, virtual relegation form after new year! I remember Walsall too. Went into a p...
