Car park 6 for Orient game

This is showing as not available for the Orient game. Is it because it's already sold out, or is it simply not in operation? If it's the latter, that's a lot of capacity removed with no mention that I've seen, putting extra strain on the already crowded buses, and making life difficult for non-bus u...

Re: Hunt out.

Indeed, I think he will be kept. not so sure - get to mid October and we're still in trouble there will be serious questions getting asked. The owners aren't interested in sentimentality and a trip to L2 is not part of the plan. Relying on one player coming back and fixing everything is hardly a st...

Re: Stadium Matchday Upgrade

I said in the survey I might stay around, but only if there's a viable bus service to Tilehurst available. TVP would take a dim view of me driving, as I'm not going to hang around without a few more pints.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Barnsley (a)

Brogue 5 points from 21. Unacceptable.


It is starting to look that way. Next game is very important for Hunt's future.

Re: MATCHWATCH : AFC Wimbledon (h)

Thoroughly entertaining evening out for £12. Wimbledon's second string were pretty good and created quite a few chances. And they absolutely should have had a penalty. Made for an even game. We scored two fantastic goals - a wonder strike and a beautiful, flowing team effort. A lot of effort and som...

Re: 4-4-2

4-4-2 is almost always 4-4-1-1 anyway. 4-2-3-1 is what we usually play, I think. It's a matter of interpretation anyway. Because 4-3-3 easily morphs into 4-3-2-1 or 4-2-3-1. No simple sequence of numbers can really sum up the tactical sophistication teams need to use today anyway. It changes in diff...

Re: Hunt out.

I find this suggestion that he doesn't know what he's doing tactically laughable. He's got a UEFA Pro license. Whilst it's no guarantee of success, it does mean that his tactical awareness will be better than 99% of us on here. Of course, we're fans, and we're entitled to our opinions and interpreta...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

At one point in the first half our pass completion was under 50%. That is the first thing that needs to be addressed. Presumably the professional footballers haven't lost the ability to kick a football with a reasonable degree of accuracy; it's more that they're too far apart, or the intended recipi...

Re: Hunt out.

You lose the players that contributed to two thirds of your goals the previous season. You manage a club that has been hollowed out of resources for years until it's only just operating. You lose two of the best centre halves to play in League 1 for many seasons - one to a Premier League club, the o...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

I hope I'm not one to over react, but that really was one of the worst Reading performances I've seen in 25 years. Rarely have I seen us so outclassed - maybe once at Old Trafford, once for 20 minutes at Pride Park in the FA Cup (when we went on to win). It was truly abysmal. Then we started to atta...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

Well guys a quick view from the other side if you’ll allow me? I think all of us are surprised at your poor start and I really don’t think it’s reflective of your team or their capability as you seem to have played pretty well in games but missed chances and conceded bad goals which can happen over...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Bolton Wanderers (a)

Today is, as I'm sure you're all aware, St. Bernard of Clairvaux's day. The patron saint of very strong Belgian beer and under-performing strikers.

The 'Ding to win by a margin of two goals, at least one of which will be the debut goal for MoM.

Re: Hunt out.

The really worrying thing is after 4 games, there is zero idea what our team identity is. That and Hunt's seeming inability to adjust to the actual game, as opposed to what he expects to happen. Criminal that no subs were made before 60 odd minutes, and his justifiaction for not using Elliot is lau...

Re: MATCHWATCH : AFC Wimbledon (h)

We played like strangers. Wimbledon played like a team. They deserved to win. We're not just suffering because of not having a striker. We're also shipping two goals per game. It's all so disconnected - no fluency, because they don't seem to know what the others are doing. Don't know what happened t...

Re: Quick Question - Stadium Atmosphere

Hello all Having previously been a regular attendee for the best part of two decades, work and family took me away and I am returning for the first time in nearly ten years. Do the club still provide Rumblestix, or, with recent budget cuts, is it now necessary for us to supply our own? I don't want...

Re: Ex Royals

Doesn't help that there's a section of Sheff Utd fans desperate to hate him. They can go fück themselves, can't they? Although he's a quietly spoken young man, he must have quite a steely self belief to have got this far in football, so I suspect the views of a few morons won't affect him too much.
