Good Morning all, Friday night just passed I was on the phone to a friend of mine and long term Reading fan Dave Murtagh about midnight. Dave had mentioned he had a spare ticket going for the Fulham game so and I was eager to take it off his hands and go to the game. We agreed to confirm the details...
They'll have paid a lot less in beer, fuel, fag and va tax than the young currently pay. I have been paying the same rate of tax on the above items ever since you started paying them. I also started paying taxes in the mid 1950's. How many extra years have I been paying taxes than you have? In resp...
How do you work that out? OAP's will have been paying tax for all those items for 50 years (and paying the same as the young at the present rates). A youngster has been paying his/her taxes for 5? 10? 15? years, if in work. Fifty years of paying tax may have been a lesser amount, but don't forget w...
I wonder why the elderly are deemed more in need of this subsidy compared to teenagers. State pension £119 per week. I wonder how many teens are on that. I suppose the yoof could cycle. So actually meh. +1. The pensioners can take it out of the money they saved not having to pay for uni, or the mas...
Would our kit ever be changed to addidas for instance? Never. We have a reputation for being a middle class IT consultant club with awful support. I don't think this reputation is accurate and don't care if it is, but it's our reputation, and does not make us a 'cool' club at all. For football, and...

My first home game since last season. A great footballing experience. Excellent support from both fans, exciting game, lovely bus back to the nags, (thanks RBC) and great bunch of geordie fans in the pub after the game. 9/10 for the fan experience, could only have been improved with that last crossb...
http://oi66.tinypic.com/15mmowh.jpg I know almost all of these guys by sight... they don't know me, I just recognise them as I've seen them at certain games. I'd be really surprised if they have anything to do with this racial chants that we are talking about.... From what I have encountered they a...
From what I heard, it was, to the tune of 'it's magic': 'Oh Al Habsi, he's ISIS, better believe it's not so' Have to say I was drunk, and may have heard wrong, and in any case don't think that in itself is a racist chant, but it's a stupid and thoughtless thing to sing at our keeper, so either STFU ...
Soo.... Getting to the game was a nightmare. We could have been 4-5 down in the first 20 minutes so the result was ok. Standing: fine. Stood all 90. Atmosphere: bit flat but then that's inevitable taking 6000 away, was still better than the home end. Football: could have done better, the first goal ...
Just checking with a mate who works at Arsenal that I can upgrade them to normal tickets on the door with him, if so I'll take them. Canyou send me your phone number with a PM?
