Shrews trailing at Pompey.

Elliott in the middle? Good!! Wasted out wide, defo does better through the middle. Will be interesting to see how he does along side wing. I worry about the complete lack of defensive cover in the midfield. Guess we’ll see Me too. Elliott is soft as a Mr Whippy. Yes, what's Craig suddenly done so ...

Mola, Ehib and Savage all dropped to the bench.

Yiadom returns as captain for Reading appearance 200.

Royals and Racers No Holmes today- playing for the U 21’s

Selles binning a PL player off to the u21s

Fans refusing to acknowledge that their rival club is any good, has some good players, had a good performance etc because they think it makes them look like an even bigger fan of their club Whereas many Reading fans often currently refuse to acknowledge that their club is any good, has some good pl...

Rotherham going down means Barnsley have to go up now, if my conspiracy theory is to be proven correct that the clubs have an agreement to switch places with each other every season and they have never actually played each other. Rotherham and Barnsley last played each other in April 2021, they hav...

Is it correct to take it that the Holmes is Tom?

blythspartan I’d love this to be a comfortable 3-1 home win, but fearing a defeat. I’d take an entertaining 2-2 draw right now.

Can only see a heavy defeat.

Always said you were blinkered.

FWIW I thought both penalties Chelsea were awarded last night shouldn't have been penalties. soft as f*ck. I feel like football shifted in the last 2-3 seasons from people being upset when soft pens are awarded, to just now being all out throwing yourself to the ground when the wind blows and fans ...

Today's referee only joined the league list in December after relocating from the US where, last season, he took charge of 21 games in the MLS showing 85 yellow cards and no red cards. He was most card-happy in the match between Orlando City and Columbus Crew (2-1) when he showed 9 yellow cards. The...

Royals and Racers 18 year old Shay Spencer has signed a pro contract with the club.

What position dos he play?

Loafer I wish Rotherham would just stop getting promoted, they're oxf*rd boring

Certainly for next season anyway!

Silver Fox Rotherham’s relegation confirmed

Plymoth sacked Ian Foster after appointing him in the new year, caretaker bloke comes in for last night game and apparently dropped all of Foster's signings and Plymouth won 1-0.

Note, Foster will no doubt rock up as Reading's next manager.

Apparently that's a Premier League record. Even though it doesn't include money for Caicedo or Sanchez, they made a transfer profit of £121m. :shock: They had a pre-transfer loss of £16m. Brighton showing how selling players can make a club sustainable and competitive above their natural revenue. B...

With everybody in the bottom 4 getting a few wins in the last few games, the relegation zone is now right behind Schalke. What a final 7 games that looks to be down there. Would be insane for Schalke to drop down again, in-freaking-sane. Is 1 FCK, the well known Kaiserslautern or Cologne by another...

Just noticed that one time Royals triallist Dennis Lota passed away a decade ago from Malaria at the very young age of 40. Think he trialled unsuccessfully for Pards around 2000, seem to recall there was a lot of talk about him amongst some fans at the time.

An interesting article on the Athletic today that Notts Forest have included an academic graduate in every matchday squad (including bench) since WW2. A few criteria: - Must have been signed by the club before they were 18 - Must have played in at least one youth category (not just reserves) - Fore...

Don't worry, United will be back to continue their general hoodoo over the 'pool on Sunday, though them letting in goals in the 110th and 111th minutes of games should make for a grandstand finish whatever the score at 90'.

Just wondering what the VAR idiots will do to screw this game up .....

Does Royalmail still work?

Bad. It means the owners have to cut more and lose more to start with. And it's longer and harder to get back to a level our facilities are appropriate for and possible to manage sustainably more than short term. Definitely bad. I would imagine that the new prospective owners will be offering a sum...
