Re: How Long Will BM Last at this rate?????

Are our current youngsters being brought up to play in any kind of a noticeable style? The under 21's when Angus MacDonald was there was very much hoooooooooooof, hit and hope. Like a young Matt Mills - when he was out on loan the squad seemed to be a lot more free flowing. Up front we have the lik...

Re: Back from the game - Sunderland (A)

Highlight of the evening apart from arriving late to miss the first goal and leaving early to avoid the third on a truly woeful night was updating my fb to say floyd had been arrested for losing the head on the third goal and a whole host of gullible people believing it. Certainly cheered me up on ...

Re: RUMOUR - Sidwell back in Jan

The only thing I'll add to this is I wouldn't be surprised to see Fulham implode in the second half of the season. There's some strange stuff going on behind the scenes. Sidwell might be playing but he was instrumental in the divide we had in the dressing room in 07/08 (e.g. re: players bonuses/squa...

Re: Pog Ponders Talks

If he didn't come so deep to try to get the ball as he gets frustrated wanting it to feet so tries to go get it himself he could be awesome for us.

Re: If Mcdermott goes, who would you get to replace him?

I don't either, but happy to play along. We do need something drastic to change, if that's the man at the top or those supporting him.

Re: SPECULATION - Wally Downes

Would Pardew be after him at Newcastle perhaps?

Maybe he's off to AFC Wimbledon?

Re: If Mcdermott goes, who would you get to replace him?

There are 'rumours' tonight that we have approached a Championship club for their manager. Exciting or what! Bollocks or not, shall we play along and guess who? I vote Poyet. The rumours, source unverified and from what I can see unreliable, say it's a Championship manager with Premier League Manag...

Re: SIGNED - Pavel Pogrebnyak

With some of his tackling / passing and where he spends half the game looking for the ball if I were in McD's position and he wasn't going to get a game upfront I'd seriously consider putting him in Ledge's position. Great tackling, good posession and decent passing. Not much slower than Ledge and s...

Re: When's the last time Reading played a through ball?

ZacNaloen I use that one pass as evidence that we aren't using Karacan in the best way.

He seems to have forgotten how to pass properly now though.
