Re: Rumour - Danny Loader

Some club may pay the £10 million that has been mooted-I remain of the opinion that anything above £1 million with plenty of add-ons represents a good deal for the club when we are in the parlous financial position that we are- So, the club that spunked £7m on Aluko should waste at least as much ag...

Re: Celtic Eye Moore

URZZZZ Celtic no longer interested in Liam Moore according to TalkReading


And if Moore has any sense he was never interested in going there as playing in the EPL regularly for any team would be much better than heading for the top pros retirement home a decade too soon.

Re: Rumour - Ovie Ejaria

He was the youngest but also the most naturally gifted of the 5. For me he starts every week with Rinomhota and it's just a case of who joins them in midfield. I'm also a Swift fan but this guy is already ahead of him and should be used for as long as we're blessed with his presence in our squad. No...

Re: BFTG - Baggies

I’ve supported the club for 47 years and cannot remember a season where we managed to avoid relegation having been in such dire straits at the start of the New Year. It’s been a brilliant turnaround. Just compare the atmosphere today compared with the likes of QPR, Bolton etc. Jose Gomes take a bow...

Re: BFTG - Baggies

An excellent point. Just one gripe. Was it really necessary to boo HRK. Quite a few of our fans booed him when he was on our team, so unsurprising. The nightmare WAS him scoring. (though I kept my boos for the star ref). Gayle didn’t fall over on the half-way line, and the genius ref didn’t point t...

Re: The League of 4

Strange things can happen and while it maybe unlikely, given previous form, anyone who thinks you can just sit back and relax for the final 270 minutes of this god awful miserable season because other teams will obviously continue to struggle needs their head examined. It’s a unique madness of foot...

Re: MATCHWATCH : West Bromwich Albion (h) sponsored by Brian Howard

I would have taken a draw at BC before kick off, as I would in all our recent away fixtures that secured a point, but I'm not buying that, in our current form, most Reading fans expectations for Monday are "low" If we can beat Preston we can beat a Baggies team that is going to make the pl...

Re: BFTG - Bristol City

I don't understand why Gunter backs off so much when someone has a go at him, time and time again they got through us on our right hand side in the first half. He doesn't seem to allow this sort of situation happen to him when he's at LB I'd put that down to the way Bristol were set-up to play. The...

From Despair To Where? A recap

Rotherham 40pts
Birmingham (h)
West Brom (a)
Middlesbrough (h)


They're not winning two of those.

It's over.


Agreed.

If they somehow stay up it won't be at our expense. We won't lose our 3 remaining games and they won't win all theirs. The end.

Re: BFTG - Bristol City

I think that’s a little harsh RR Our recent results tell you we aren’t miles away. We’ve massively improved at ball retention and movement, though of course there is still plenty of work to be done, least of all in the next 3 games Quite We're 14th on the current form table over 6 games in which on...

Re: BFTG - Bristol City

Not sure we did deserve a point, other than the last 5 minutes we hardly got into their half and we’re very slow on the counter. Still, a good point nonetheless. It was an excellent away performance thoroughly deserving of a point . If you only spend the few seconds in the opposing half required to...

Re: BFTG - Brentford

Gunter was o.k for these past two games for the most part but, with all that experience, the player does so little in terms of marking a player or stopping crosses which IMHO are prerequisites for full-back play and he never learns. Exactly, this is what full backs are supposed to do and our defenc...

Re: BFTG - Brentford

+1 I actually think Gunter has been pretty consistent during his time here. Yes occasionally he has had quite a decent game, and on occasion he has been truly uncompromisingly shocking, but by and large, more often than not, week in week out he’s just pretty shit. This, except I'd describe him as m...

Ejaria MOTM for me, not only was he tackling and winning the ball but he seemed to be wearing Glen Little's magic boots as the ball was sticking to his feet at times when it really shouldn't have. Rinamota and Ejaria - That's who I'd like to see the midfield built around, Couldn't agree more. We wi...

Yeah, ropey cross on the wrong foot. Big deal. He had his issues today, but he was fine.


And I'm no fan by any means.

Re: BFTG - Brentford

More than happy to have him in the side while he performs to that standard but Blackett has every right to feel a little hard done by. Probably more to do with tactics and cover from the bench. Lot of games in a short space of time. Moore's shoulder obviously is a problem. Gunter played well at Nor...
