Just checking - do you expect Kelvin E and/or MOM to keep a fit Marriott out of the side and then for Couhig to bring in a (better) striker in the January window? Admittedly we now have a new manager but neither of these things happened earlier in the season so not sure either will happen now A fit...

If we are relatively successful til then, with the window opening shortly after, fair chance he won’t be getting back in the side imo if he’s out that long. Definitely in his own interest to get back sooner Just checking - do you expect Kelvin E and/or MOM to keep a fit Marriott out of the side and...

He's a bit like Colin - someone we love to hate when managing our opposition but a decent guy and very good, knowledgeable professional when he's not. Certainly very knowledgeable about making illegal payments to players and tax fraud. I think that for clubs like Stevenage, they have an inevitable ...

Out for 4-6 weeks from beginning of November, so likely to be out until the Xmas games start being played. If we are relatively successful til then, with the window opening shortly after, fair chance he won’t be getting back in the side imo if he’s out that long. Definitely in his own interest to g...

Isn't Josh Bowen responsible for this department at Reading FC....? Yes - but I don't think any of the players have been out longer than anticipated apart from maybe O'Conner. All these muscle injuries/fatigue have been caused at least partly by Hunt's training regime which he admitted himself was ...

Might make Xmas fixtures then. No surprise. Get a player who hasn’t played 90 mins for a year and then he plays every minute for 6 games He's Graeme Murty in reverse. Murts had been pretty much ever present at York, he got here, joined 1 training session and was promptly out for 6 months. Am I imag...

Why on earth did Ritchie decide to pick up his fourth yellow card of the season for what was, basically, pissing about with the ball? If I was Richardson, I'd have been fuming with that. It was fully deserved and I mean seriously Ritchie, wtf? Agreed. Exceptionally unprofessional, particularly from...

Last night I overheard someone asking whether he was related to Derrick Williams!

Is it not the same divs in 1871 that have been being utter dicks all season? The booing that I heard was from the East Stand. He got a decent round of applause (deserved) when he was subbed but I'm not sure whether he realised it was for him as we started subbing players as he was walking around th...

Can someone explain the booing of Chem Campbell ?? The guy came in on loan and played a part in what could have been our last ever season He was a free agent and had to choose between us and Stevenage, he chose Stevenage...so f**king what maybe he wanted the guarantee of first team selection week i...

The former manager previously AKA “Fatty Fist Pump” needs a new nickname. He was also very reasonable in his comments given his previous connections. The excess skin must be horrendous but fair play to him for losing so much weight, he’s half the man he used to be! He's a bit like Colin - someone w...

Reading are a has-been club, on the way down. We are on the up even though we lost tonight. Two and a half weeks to get these two, recent, poor results out of our system. Then we go again...not the end of the world. More lessons to be learnt by everyone and we'll come out fighting again. COYB :D A ...

A rare live game for me. Great result, but the quality of football from both sides was dire. Wasn’t exactly overwhelmed by the differences between Noel’s Reading and Leam’s Reading; looked to me like Leam just picked up where Noel left off. Feels a bit unfair to reel off a bunch of criticisms after...

The first 30mins is as well as we have played all season, slightly better than Cardiff. It was a pity we couldn't get a second goal but we dominated a team who were second in the table before the game - quite how I'm not sure as they offered nothing except to pounce on the mistake from Abrefa. It w...

Hound Is that Steve Evans in the studio?wow he’s lost a ton of weight

7 stone!

In just 6 months through diet and exercise! They were joking in the studio about him having to get up early for his swimming the next day. Fair play to the guy. Literally a shadow of his former self.

I honestly think that the Ref rescinded the Red Card is because he was worried that if he didn't, he would be perceived as being racist, because there would be a debate that he had gotten the 2 black players mixed up. I don't think it was a card at all, it was a foul, but not a card. Ok :lol: To be...

Sutekh Rather have Kenneth.

At least go for Robbie so that we can have some greater financial clout!

Two Williams.

Commentators will have to work a bit harder!

Grab another one and we're well on the way to a Christmas carol.
