Dick Habbin's hairdo Gianfranco Zola in pre-season friendly at EP .... absolute joy to watch.

Yes. We pegged them back to 1-1 then they (Zola) just switched it up a gear until they restored the lead. Genius.

SCIAG What about Alexis Sanchez in the FA Cup semi final at Wembley?

What about him? In a game we drew? Your posts haven't got any better have they.

We currently have some of the worst fans in English football, some of them are a complete disgrace at away games. Loud, rude and deeply, deeply unfunny. everything is pretty much ok as long as it is based in good humour but we just seem to have a load of kids aged 16-25 who get drunk and drugged an...

Old Man Andrews Anyone asking for a refund should be immediately banned by the club. None of this is their fault and they owe you nothing.

Came into this thread specifically to say this. Thankfully it's already been said, although a pity it's taken till page 2.

Great shout.

Hating it. Are you even a supporter?

I have all season review VHS and DVDs available if anyone wants one in particular. Need to make space so will be willing to agree on a nominal fee.

Looks as if the farcical situation of the clash of shirts between Reading and the referee could be blamed on Reading. No teams in Berks and Bucks cup matches are allowed to wear black or any other very dark colour. Reading could be fined for the match starting late whilst they resolved the issue( R...

This is up there for me:

Right on the stroke of half time. Carnage in the concourse minutes after. Right then I knew we were at Wembley.

Lets try talking about the game...... I think Stoke need to come here and not lose which could be an issue for us if they don't come at us a bit. I think we are at our best when teams attack us and we hit on the counter. I'm unfortunately pessimistic about this one, but only as a realist. A realist...

Snowflake Royal I really need to arrange meeting CountryRoyal to cough up.

What silly bet did one of you make?

He bet charlton would be in a relegation fight and I disagreed iirc.

I thought I was on to a winner in September.

Snowflake Royal in getting something about football wrong shocker

If it does I feel it will be a blessing in disguise for England. Should Kane and Rashford not be fit enough for the tournament, which four strikers travel? Calvert-Lewin Abraham Ings Would ask Vardy to come out of retirement. Crikey. This now leads me to my next question (I think you probably know ...

Wonder if this will be affected by Coronavirus? Surely will be in some way at this rate with the number of foreign games being called off/behind closed doors Everyone will have grown up by then. If it does I feel it will be a blessing in disguise for England. Should Kane and Rashford not be fit eno...

Zip Holmes is on a season long loan in Belgium. I was less impressed by him. Felt he was a bit too slow and struggled to contain ALF on the night he made his debut.

Incredibly harsh assessment.

https://www.readingfc.co.uk/news/2020/march/from-club-to-club-1871--an-open-letter/ Pretty much spot on IMO. However, some fans will occasionally berate a misplaced pass or wayward shot from one of their team's players out of sheer spur of the moment frustration. That's different from giving indivi...

FL confirm no pre match handshakes until further notice https://www.readingchronicle.co.uk/sport/18286971.coronovirus-fears-leads-cancellation-pre-match-handshakes/ Presumably that also means the prematch line up will also bite the dust. Be just like the days of proper football when teams just used...

The comment about the modern player not being two footed is very true.When I first started watching football,all the top footballers use to comment about working on their weaker foot.I seem to recall that our 2005 side only had one player who was genuinely two footed,and that was Doyle.Even at the ...
