Re: Rival Watch

Really don't want Sheffield United to go up and finish 20th again. What's the point? I bet half their fans agree with me too. I've said this for a while, for the fans, going up is generally shit. The money is nice for the club. But after a few weeks, losing so many games is just a crap experience r...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

The new recruits need to help us match teams at this level physically. Yesterday was another game where we were outmuscled. Completely agree that we need some bit beefy players to fight it out next season - we're quite a small squad who often just get barged off the ball 11 of these please… https:/...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Of those out of contract, who would you offer a contract to? For me: Goalkeeper Button - no Boyce-Clarke - no Norcott - yeah Rowley - yeah Fullbacks Garcia - yes, no brainer, at least 2 years Rushesha - yeah, squad depth Yiadom - probably not actually Clarke - depends on fitness Ryan - depends on f...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Lincoln City (h)

low energy, low quality, not able to make an effective change. sigh. The starting line up, as Suts pointed out, is down to Noel. The bold bit above is the legacy of how the club has been run, the consequences of having to choose from freebies and other clubs cast offs. That's down to those above Noel

Sutekh
Snowflake Royal That Wareham sub stinks of pre-planned around 65 minutes, and it should have been earlier based on game state.


Reading stink when WiFi is told to play through middle! This one’s on Noel.

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

I personally don't think promotion would be a good thing this season. We've already got something of a squad rebuild in the offing regardless of what league we are in so it would be doubly difficult in the Championship. I think we'd struggle to stay up and we'd see our better players depart. Totall...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Yup, we have so many ‘experts’ on here ….and they used to say that an ‘expert’ was somebody who was 32 miles from home….but I’ve never understood that reference either :| My nephew and another good friend in a senior position at the club still have jobs, that’s all that matters…..and yet they haven...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (h)

Absolutely no shape to the team, poor individual performances, they don’t seem motivated and I can see us losing it That accurately reflects where our club is right now. Forget the league position, The attendance, the spirit etc, mirror it. Perhaps the players have started to wonder if they are flo...

Dai's fingers are wrapped around the *costly* football club's throat.
The assets : stadium, training ground, emerging young players remain.

Yes though most of these owners are gamblers to some extent aren’t they? All think they’ve got the magic secret to make it work and bring success. Dai when he bought us just thought throw a load of money and we’ll go up without doubt any kind of diligence on where the money was going It does happen...

No chance of us going up at all so it’s just hanging in there this season til the clown sells up - if he ever does :o :o :o :o I don't even want to imagine how results in the Champ would be if we were somehow to get promoted with the current set up. The sale HAS to happen before even contemplating ...

I don’t know how to break this to people, but Dai doesn’t give a shit. This is just another irritant to him, not a priority, and he really doesn’t care what you call him in the local paper. Nor is the Chinese Communist Party particularly vexed about Reading either, before anyone suggests going down...

Er, that’s not likely Can we have both teams to lose, please ? Agreed. Oxford, for my money, are a one man team tbh. Lose Brannagan and they fall apart. That said he has proved over and again he is ultra loyal. Joey Beauchamp was ultra loyal to Oxford, even when he did move he couldn't settle and c...

Re: Who do we want to play next season?

Definitely up for a schlepp to Barrow. I was also at that game in 72 at EP when vouchers were issued for the Arsenal cup game. 52 years ago. Yikes. So was I, AR. Over 11000 came for that voucher. Was the term "plastic" or "gloryhunter" or a 70s equivalent a thing then? Ab-so-blo...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

How different is that to the times before football was invented in 1992 though? Teams having a successful period and rising up to the top division for a while then dropping back down the leagues for a while has happened throughout the past 150 years (Wolves, Portsmouth, Burnley etc). In the 70s/80s...
