Re: Would anyone like to record this programme?

Just watched it, hardly got a mention until February, but still it was a little dull. Nice to relieve Southampton away all over again though I still have the Saints away game recorded on my Sky HD box. Watched it the other night, great to watch, about three shots on target and three goals, brillian...

Re: RUMOUR: Jordan Rhodes

I think ALF is the one to watch. Hunt is in the bowl, and we've seen it all. ALF is just peeping out the hole - we have no idea how big he is or what size of a splash he'll make when he hits the water. ditto this... Not sure what he has peeping out of his hole... but have a feeling Alf could have a...

Re: RUMOUR: Jordan Rhodes

They had a good team in 1926... Unlike Reading............... Who have a good team NOW!! :D 1926/27 - FA Cup semi-finalists. Reading FC. Not too shabby in my book. Cape Town Royal dofs his cap in total respect to that fine Reading team of the mid 20's - apologises to the HNA members and re-posts ac...

Re: RUMOUR: Jordan Rhodes

Question. Is Lee Makel the best Huddersfield player of all time? They have had some good ones. Alex Jackson scored a hatrick for Scotland when they thrashed England at Wembley. Ray Wilson was a World Cup winner. Frank Worthington was Huddersfields answer to Pele. Denis Law was the youngest ever Sco...

Dear Terrier58 I do hope this correspondence finds you in good health. It would seem that the betting establishments in this fair area must have been listening to 'Some girl on Twitter' as well because, as of approximately 09.15hrs on the above date Reading FC were 1/4 (1.25 decimal) to sign your M...

Re: RUMOUR - Danny Guthrie

Why would this rule him out? Would you not sign him because his brides families friends are pikeys? Seems an extremely harsh recruitment policy if he's the right player (which I don't think he is).

Re: Arthur Wilkie - goalkeeping record holder

Arthur Wilkie was the first Reading 'keeper I ever saw. Am I right in thinking that Roy Brown took over after he'd moved on? Yes. We also had Mike Dixon around that time. I preferred Dixon but Roy Bentley disagreed with me and always gave the nod to Roy Brown. There was an article on Mike Dixon in ...
