Fundamentally, Chelsea showed the way to play against United in the FA Cup final. I think we took a leaf out of their book. Nullify United, and they have no backup plan really. We nullified them, and they had no backup plan. Without any strikers it's hardly surprising they didn't have a back up pla...

For what its worth Man Utd Chelsea Arsenal Liverpool Tottenham Aston Villa Sunderland Portsmouth Blackburn Everton West ham Newcastle Bolton Reading Man City Middlesboro Birmingham Fulham Derby Wigan I'll go along with this. Sadly the Sham might finish a place or too higher, and Bolton and us might...

West Ham. They represent everything that is wrong with football - the anti-Reading if you like. They so do, they so do. I cannot wait for them to become the next Leeds. And I will laugh myself shitless in front of "Sir" Trevor Brooking, the most odious piece of slim to ever walk this eart...

So, according to The Times, if Doyle scores lots of goals we have a "fighting chance" of staying up. :shock: The guy writing that article must have given, oooooh, minutes of thought to it - for example, suggesting that because we let Halford go we are significantly weaker than last season...

I'm going for a dramatic opening day. Man Utd 1-5 Reading Rooney 13 Lita 1, Kitson 87, Doyle 88,89,90 Man U Van der Saar, Evra, Vidic, Ferdinand, Neville, Giggs (Nani 65), Scholes (Kzuscak 84), Hargreaves, Ronaldo, Rooney, Anderson(Tevez 82). Sent off: Van der Sar 83 (Reacts to Hunt challenge) Stre...

the casual racism and xenophobia is part and parcel of this seemingly right wing dominated portal.democracy in action i guess. Well, you know where the door is. Since when did lefties learn to read instruction manuals?!?! Haven't you heard the latest drivel from these idiots destroying the educatio...

Reading World have it as well if you have access. I have access and never got any sound. Different from Matchlive console from last year - sucks! The whole OS interactive content is absolute crap. Well the content isn't, but the delivery doesn;t actually work!!! What a bargain for £39.99 per seaosn.

Matt Le Tissier's view on Sky Sports: Reading were knocking on the European door last season, but have barely bought anyone in. Second-season syndrome is always a factor, but I don't think Royals fans should be too concerned. Steve Coppell is a shrewd man who has built a tight-knit squad, where eve...

Can't see why not, but if you call the TO they are the only ones who can tell you for sure. I didn;t have a single problem upgrading tickets last season and did it for 'big 4' games Well you must have friends in very high places. I was only allowed to upgrade the max 3 times last season, and when i...

My God - what a DUMP the Withdean is!!!!!! I feel really sorry for them, I really do!! Even our Speedway "stadium" is better than Withdean!! That would be a disgrace in non-league football! Thank heavens Falmer has been given the go-ahead. Realising what all the fuss was about now i retrac...

3-1 Lita pen 90.

BBC SCR says 3-1 flattered RFC.

According to BBC SCR OG by Doobs, with Lita equalising almost immediately.

FFS!! Please let the close season end SOON!!!!!!

Ark Royal For the record, I was also one of the 10,961 chosen people who witnessed the goal, but not one of the 1,713 who witnessed the nadir of PNE!

As indeed was I

I'm pretty sure the outside world doesn't see a huge difference. Are you going to try and argue that we aren't reliant on Mr Mad? He hasn't yet even had so much as a hair put out of place by the surge of outside investors wanting to take us over. I personally feel that is a direct function of the p...
