Re: Who do you want in the playoffs?

Huddersfield for me.

Easiest route to the final at the moment.
And wouldn't be that gutted to lose to them.

Re: Rival Watch

Both Fulham and Wednesday will want to win because it'll be a psychological blow to the loser and a morale boost to the winner should they meet in the play offs. They'll want to win, but they will go out knowing they don't need to win. Psychologically the players won't want to risk being injured or...

Re: Wigan (H) - Predictions

Bad feeling.

Expected to win + Bogey team + Last home match + "We always bounce back" + "We only need a point for playoffs"
= 0-2 defeat

It happens. 0-2 Watford 2007, 2-3 Sheff Utd 2011.

Re: Our rightful place?....

Silver Fox
Half Biscuit In 2015, our average final league position over the previous 50 years was 44th (below even Oxford :lol: ).
So on that basis, historically, we 'belong' in the third division.


Second division surely?

But no team 'belongs' any division - they have to win the right, repeatedly, as others have said. Next, let's discuss whether ...

Re: Who do you want to miss out on the play offs?

Leeds, no question. It doesn't matter who we play (provided we actually make it) - we can beat any of those on our day. And if it isn't Reading, I would applaud any of the others getting to the PL. But Leeds, with their despicable fans, players and manager, in with a chance of winning the playoffs? ...

Re: Play off dates

The home leg is bound to be on the 17th May as that's the only date around then I can't make. I've already made it certain that we'll be in the final as I'm going to the Isle of Man on the Saturday of the bank holiday weekend. Thanks wingnut, that was very considerate of you.

Re: Matchwatch : Blackburn Rovers (h) sponsored by seven games to go

"Law of averages" suggests we won't win our three winnable final home games.
This could be the one that doesn't go to plan.
Added to which, we turn to jelly when we're "looking to extend our excellent run of home form".
1-1. McCleary.

Re: If RFC don't make the play-offs....

I will pretend I'm not bothered, while churning with complex emotions inside. I will say the Premier League is just a circus anyway, it's all about money, and I prefer lots of Tuesday games anyway. I will then paradoxically say that ours is a long-term project and we are very much a work in progress...

Re: Sheffield Wednesday (A) Predictions

Got to say I'm not at all confident about this one - reckon it's going to get worse before it even starts to get better. 4-0 Wednesday, with Jordan Rhodes suddenly reminding everyone why Reading fans were champing at the bit to get him, for several seasons.

Dearly hoping to be proved wrong.
