I would be amazed if Newcastle win 3 away games on the spin to promotion opposition. Yet stranger things have happened. Yes - like us beating West Ham, Brighton, and Southampton in successive away games in 2012... (OK, they weren't strictly on the spin, and Brighton were just outside the playoffs -...
Strange to think that there are Reading fans who don't remember the 106 team... but of course there must be. No matter how long you've supported Reading (me - since 1969) or how old you are, that team and that season was the most exhilarating we've ever known. Bobby Convey and the rest of the guys c...
when was the last time you saw Gunter win a tackle? Like I always say, if you don't like a player you see his mistakes - if you like a player, you see his successes. We're only objective about players we don't particularly care about either way! Great comment. Unfortunately, all I see when I see Gu...
Can someone help me... I like Huddersfield and hope they go up. Is this a fair view to have? Or is there a reason I should hate them and wish them to fail? Thanks, Bobby +1. Dislike Rafa. Always have. Like Chris Hughton. Always have. Like Newcastle fans, but hate media obsession with the club. Like...
So, can we please just shut up about Brighton now? They've got a good team, they deserve to be where they are, they are not going to have the perennial oxf*rd up, they have a good shout at automatic promotion, they are better than us (this year, and last, oh and the one before). Anyone would think w...
I know I'm just an idiot and so was my mum (who's dead) for having me, but I far prefer our badge to Brighton's, and to all our previous ones. Brighton's badge makes me think of seagull shit on someone's fish and chips.
Rosenior is what I imagine a baby born out of an arse instead of a vagina to look like. Not in a racist way, just looks the type that wasn't born out of a vagina. Hated him while he was here and I hope he never plays again due to injury. Love this description. I too hated the gobshite while he was ...
Anyone remember Reading 6 Barnsley 2 way back in something like 70/71 when Les Chappell scored a hatrick .. a similar score tomorrow would be nice ! No I was firmly in 'gods pocket' aka my Dads ball sack..' Reading 3 Barnsley 1 with a nod to some kid who is born 2037 who reads this shit when the fl...
Anyone remember Reading 6 Barnsley 2 way back in something like 70/71 when Les Chappell scored a hatrick .. a similar score tomorrow would be nice ! 1969-70. Included a diving header. Great game, great season. Great memory, thanks. Most of us are expecting a win tomorrow, and that's when it usually...
Lots of knee-jerkery from both Reading and Brighton fans tonight. But remember, we haven't caught up with them quite yet. Let's hope Jaap and the guys take a more sanguine approach. Win next game.
Snow drifts will build throughout the opening 45 minutes, but will be thawed out by hot air from the PA system at half time. Only for the game to be called off when a single decisive snowflake lands on the fourth official's eyelash.
It's nothing but a prediction; anything could happen in the next four months. I look at it from the players' point of view. If they vote Yes, they succumb to complacency and it all goes pear-shaped. If they vote No, they succumb to a self-defeating negative spiral. So they decide to keep options ope...
