We are lucky to have seen so many goals worthy of the accolade. I still believe Convey riding 2 tackles and running 60? metres before making a great finish should have been goal of the season in the last campaign but I've gone for Seol's at West Ham.....................technically as good as any of ...
The owners of the ground will hopefully say... No Rugby tomorrow. I suspect there are reasons why we can't do that but, given that the Mad Stad has become a firm favourite amongst Rugby fans, I'm hoping that the games administrators can see the bigger picture and call off tomorrow's fixture sooner ...
Bollocks decision, it's been dry ever since he called it off! I'm sorry but that's bollocks - the pitch was pretty much under water. No way they could of played on it this afternoon, even though the rain did stop. Couldn't agree more..........I guess it boils down to whether ones own selfish consid...
...get a broom or pump the water out of the centre circle as the rest was playable! Not true, a 30m stretch front of the East Stand was inches under water as was the south stand goalmouth. Wouldn't have been playable for a good hour MINIMUM. As it was still tipping it down at 3 the ref had no optio...
Took one look at the pitch when I arrived at 2.30 and knew the match would be called off...............it was unplayable...................end of. If I'm p*ssed of about anything it's that I heard nothing about the match being in jeopardy until the tannoy announcement was made five minutes before ki...
ANOTHER contract re-negotiation for Doyle? That's 2 in 18 months. Augurs well for Sidwell, I feel. As a few of us remembered - Doyle signed an improved deal only last January - this new one adds an extra year and is no doubt with an increased weekly wage. http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/N...
Where does it stop though When we're guaranteed a place in next season's Premiership................end of. I'll be there on Saturday (unlike those who sit next to me for the rest of the season :wink: ) and, like AP, I'm looking forward to it. I also look forward to the day when squad numbers and i...

I'm assuming "squad player at best" has now replaced "not good enough" for 2007. I seem to remember that Sonko and Kitson were once holders of this infamous title. So, I guess it should come as no surprise to see it attached to a midfieder who stood in at right back, whilst the d...
Some fans still need to come to terms with our Premiership status which means, amongst many other things, having very good players who aren't guaranteed a place in the team. Having spent all year worrying about the shortage of strike options, I can't believe that some feel Zamora would be surplus to...
We have other players who are worth at least as much, if not more, to us than Steve Sidwell and it is naive in the extreme to assume that giving him far more than anyone else would not seriously undermine the great team spirit that has got us to where we are today. I would rather start next season n...
From Chronicle online: Steve Sidwell has given Reading a further boost by announcing he is ready to sit down and discuss a new contract. The midfield enforcer has rejected two offers already which has alerted a number of rival Premiership clubs, including Aston Villa, Manchester City and Middlesbro...
To get 3 from RFC in the squad would have been very pleasing but to have them all selected is just fantastic......................and thoroughly deserved
Can anyone do a countdown clock like the one we had for promotion? Ummm... for the very reason it is impossible to predict the safety 'finishing line', as discussed above already, it would be very difficult to produce a meaningful clock/spreadsheet... Too many variables I'm afraid... unless someone...
Funny how Shorey's so-called poor form has coincided with Convey's absence and the inclusion of Hunt. He got forward and looked much better on Tuesday. And had his best game of the season (do any of those who wish to have babies want to disagree with this assessment :? ) today with Hunt returning t...
