For me buying 'an expensive striker' is not likely for under £5m ? :lol: I really hope Stam has a plan B when this tedium is not sufficient to break sides down. I expect it would have been slightly more entertaining if they had 11 on the pitch, but can be droll when teams park the bus ... I assume ...

If a terrorist was going to strike a football match, they'd choose one with 60,000 people rather than 6,000. It would be in a big city. They'd probably attack outside the ground, before any searches have taken place. Probably use a combination of vehicle and personal weapons rather than an IED in a...

Listened to the whole thing on BBC RB streamed on iPlayer Radio. Someone must have forgotten to apply the streaming block to it. Long may that continue.

Now noticed for both the QPR and Gillingham games that I was able to get BBC Berks commentary on digital radio which wasn't the case in previous seasons. Anyone seen if the Beeb now has digital radio rights or something? The EFL Cup is always available online. The licensing issues are different for...

Park at Mere Oak and walk to the stadium. If it rains pay the bus fare. Simples.

DOYLERSAROYALER Of all the signings made by Stam/DoF...only Moore has been a real success..

I guess that is why his squad took us to the play off final last season?

You get a return RDG - Banbury, and a return Banbury - Brum but stay on the same train. It works out cheaper than a direct ticket. Groupsave is 30% off if 3 or more of you travel together. Std is £55, split gets that to £28, groupsave gets that to under £20 That's pretty good, is there an easy way ...

mambo3 Chinese billionaire, we get rid of all them players that don't fit into Stams ideology and we end up with the likes of..............

Your point being?

It sounds much like what most golf clubs already do. You just don't preload it with too much loot so if there is a problem with the club going out of business no one individual loses a significant amount. Will they, like golf clubs, offer a discount to members who use a preloaded card to make purcha...

And Jordan Mutch was a sensation when we took him from Palace last year. completely different player and this would be a permanent move, Or are you just saying all palace players are sh1t? If Benteke rocked up at the Mad Stad im assuming you would think he would be crap to. I don't quite get your p...

It would be an interesting (and by that I mean bad) business decision.

In short: business that is losing money decides to sink "investment" into a venture that makes it no income at all and has no tangible marketing benefit. Directors have been sacked for less!

Yes, I know where I am going. In about 10 minutes I am going to the fruit and veg market. Then back to sit by the pool and read my book. In Sep I am going to Cascais to play a bit of golf for 4 days and in November I am off to Lisbon to visit my son. As to the Royals. This time last year this board ...

The last thing we need to do is encourage yet worse behaviour from football fans. Very much hope this goes absolutely nowhere. Make the home terracing at the opposite end from the away fans, and you probably reduce trouble by no longer having a flashpoint where the more boisterous home fans are onl...

Sutekh Hurtado now looks to officially be no more....

Supposed 4 year deal with Vitoria Guimares, standard undisclosed fee

Confirmed on the OS about an hour ago.

Not to mention that despite our defence looking solid on paper, we still conceded 60+ goals last season. So I think we should welcome the opportunity to strengthen the defence. We shipped 60+ goals and our keeper made more saves than any other keeper in this division. That certainly might suggest t...

On the official Reading FC website I have not seen any reference to the departure of Williams or Al Habsi. Is this so that fans think they still play for us or is it that the club don't like to think that players choose to leave us, rather than being told that they can go? Edit:- On website now sin...

The problem with safe standing is political - it will need someone to stand up to the emotion of Hillsborough for it to happen. Surely that is not an issue ? Hillsborough wasn't caused by terracing and we didn't ban seating after Bradford. Now the real causes of Hillsboro are widely understood it's...

The club will do what they do every year.. Lose a few top players and then spend sod all cash in the summer then when our paper thin squad show that they are not good enough by losing a few games at the start of the season, the club panic and buy 3-4 players during the last week of the transfer win...
