Re: Relegation Watch

But my main reason for such predictions is we are showing very little fight, seem to be getting worse, crowds lower and more miserable. I think if we lose to Leeds we will finish bottom I totally disagree. Derby was very good and Bolton whilst not brilliant was 'fine'. Not great, granted but we got...

Re: New

Thanks again for the replies, and thanks Sutekh for that info, very interesting. I guess people will always question the motives of foreign owners, and as you say when they are quiet you wonder what they are up to. It’s certainly nice to see some positivity about Reading as a whole on here, despite...

Re: Gate figure conspiracy-gate?

kieran Well, every home game at Fratton the attendance is announced as circa 18k. The ground always looks full, apart from the away end. Not sure if this helps :D

What would help is if this Reading FC forum actually had Reading FC fans on it, not Pompey scum so do one m8

Re: Relegation Watch

John, looking at games left I think, unless we get a freak result based on a lot of luck or a sudden reversal of form we should, logically get HEAVY defeats at Wolves (0-5), Norwich (0-3), Villa (0-2), Fulham (0-5) and home to Preston (1-3) I'm predicting our GD will be 19-25 worse than it is now, ...

Re: Relegation Watch

I kind of agree with you John, but Snowball has a point too. In my Excel relegation predictor, I only see 1 win between now and the end of season for 6 of the bottom 7 teams, and I don't see Hull winning any. We only have one game v Bottom 7, (I have that as a 1-0 win to us v Sunderland). Burton ha...

Re: Relegation Watch

Snowball 11/1 to be relegated (SKY BET)

Although I think we will avoid going down, 11/1 is a very good bet.

We obviously have different views on finances because I'd say a bet that's certain to lose is a shit one

Re: Weekend Football

(20th) Grimsby v Port Vale (22nd) tomorrow

Grimsby's new manager has his first game in charge - does that, coupled with home advantage make them favourites for this huge encounter?

Burnley would be a good fit for Shaw.

Derby haven't had their annual meltdown yet either .

They haven't won in 7. I'd say that was pretty bad

yeh indeed. It's the drop off in the performances of players who were here last year which is just as shocking really - the likes of McShane, Blackett, Joey, Beerens, Yann, Evans and Moore who have all been well down on what they produced last season. Evans has hardly played. Likewise Beerans befor...

Re: Season Tickets 18/19

I’m one of the most optimistic and pro-Stam supporters on this forum, but I can’t argue that 15/2 is an insane price for relegation after events of recent weeks. 9 points out of a possible 45. Yet we aren't in the danger zone. Shows how bad the teams beneath us are. Exactly. The plus point is that ...

Re: Rival Watch

If they [Sheffield Wednesday] lose and we win on Saturday, they will be 19th. Will they still be fairly safe? Could be a massive game when we visit there next month, so hopefully they keep hold of Luhukay. I'm 90% sure they will be. However they still have Bolton, Sunderland, Hull and us to play. L...
