Re: Back from whatever that was.

Can't believe some people have even given Esteves 5 I have never seen a professional player look like a school boy scared to get involved, can he sprint ? Only thing I've seen him do well is a few pops at goal. He isn't ready for championship football, our midfield are being pulled out of position ...

Re: Back from whatever that was.

Laurent only one who deserves his wages this week based on that. I'd probably give Semedo 50% for this first half. Never really do player ratings but if I must: Rafael. 3 - woeful, slow distribution Esteves 4 - salvaged a point for a decent effort. Yiadom 4 - tough game first time back Morrison 4 - ...

Re: How many Managers have you been through ?

23 full time, permanent managers, I think, starting with Roy Bentley (just!) - or 22 if you count Jimmy and Geordie as one.

Re: Royals on the Box/Internet Thread

So i'm in Canada and paid my annual subcription to ifollow $200.00 approx, and now all of a sudden we become the new Leeds and Sky gets all the games and i'm out of pocket as we cannot get these games on ifollow? Surly this isn't right or fair. Not happy at the moment. Exactly what I said to the ch...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Coventry City (a) sponsored by Jimmy Hill

We looked 'comfortable' until Cov scored their third and then we got a bit desperate - with five mins to go - and started to show some bite and urgency. Just lacking the *intensity* today..... no-one comes out of that with any credit (apart from a sublime Joao finish.) Good kick up the backside need...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Middlesbrough (a) sponsored by Paul Holsgrove

Holmes certainly and Morrison the pick in the first half.
Getting into it and we'll have one or two decent chances in the second and can see us winning this.
Agreed with more closeups of Colin esp when Boro give free kicks away.....

I'll be fair, when he returned to Twitter and started posting he came across as quite intelligent, not at all like I had imagined, probably from the negativity around his time at the club. I admit that I was very pleasantly surprised when I looked at his Twatter on Saturday evening - smart, insight...

Criminal he has got a club. Can't remember the game last season when Tom Mac and him were the two centre halves and played like seasoned pros.... I thought: "There's the future of RFC....." Sounds like he's been very poorly advised by his agent based on pre-Covid greed. Just needs to get a...

Re: If you didn't support Reading, who would you have supported and why?

I'm ashamed to admit it but probably Pompey as I was born in Gosport dockyard and saw my first ever games at Fratton Park where my grandfather was a life president and my Ma and grandma were STHs. Failing that, Charlton coz my old man was born a couple of stones throws from the Valley and lived the ...

My iFollow 'season ticket' renewed on 1st September for GBP 140 squid.

Re: Dai Yongge in trouble with Chinese government

English football - and specifically the Prem - is a global business. The EPL only wants to maximize its revenues through (predominantly) broadcasting rights, while every ne'er-do-well (guns, drugs, slaves through to a little light corruption) globally wants to wash its dirty money (except Norway, of...

Re: Playoffs 2019/20

I bet the TVP are rather hoping that it's the Chairboys and not the Pox.

Every Nobber should be hoping for the latter .... now if only we had our real derby with the Sh*ts in a non-descript cup.

Absolute mirror image of the goal conceded against Stoke..... Zonal might work if you mark all the zones.... no challenges, two soft headers. Sunday League shite.

Re: Season Ticket Refund?

Great options from RFC and I would hope most STHs will take the iFollow option or donate to the foundation. A refund just seems churlish - except, of course, for those who are feeling real hardship as a result of the coronas. The club still hasn't answered my question, though, as an overseas fan and...
