Lived in reading for a year so always been a personal rivalry for me. Love to see us get points off them and after we beat them 3-1 at WIthdean in div 2, went for a few drinks out in Reading n my stripes. Marvelous! Always gonna be a bit of rivalry between southern (just) teams when they play...

Fair and so so true! Their fanbase is just nonexistant. And that is why I would always prefer to support a club like the Albion. They will never be as big a club as us. Lived in Reading for a year so a real personal thing with them as well and hurt almost as much as Selhurst 3 yrs ago. But at...

That was truely remarkable. I am and always will be an Aston Martin man as my dream car, but that was just phenonemal. 1000 bhp. That just seems unreal. I would give anything to just take that round a lap. Most the time I like to see May and Hamster have a go at winning the races, but that...

RoyalAli Reading Regular. Registered: Aug 2003 Location: Reading Posts: 3151 I thought the Reading fans were shit, and we made no noise.... Or can that ridiculous pre-conception now be dispelled? On the whole, I thought both fans came out with some pretty funy stuff.... Your "We...

Think if we dont beat both Millwall and Hull then it is going to become even more of a strugle then last season. Really are massive games. But Brighton do seem to learn a lot from absolute kickings like yesterday so hopefully we'll sort it out and get those 3 pts!

Yeah he seems to be doing really well for himself at the moment. WOuld love to see him maybe go out and get some work experience at either conference or above level. I made the prediction at the start of the season that before May '06 we'll see him score in the first team. Still think it'll happen!

McGhee's answer, word for word: "I've no idea whatsover, but he's suspended anyway so I'm not really interested." That is exactly what he said. What he probable meant was that whatever his thoughts OGH is now suspended and as a manager you always have to be looking forward to te next game and...

Would much rather see money spent on McShane then another striker. He really is just quality. Thought El Abd did well today, but not having reallt played with this back four, probably just unsettled things a little bit his coming in today which you can't really falt him for.

Anyone that slags off McGhee's signings need sto watch o Carole, Fruity and McShane closer. With no money, unproven's are always gonna be hit or miss. That's why they don't cost millions. To be fair if we hadn't won the coke money we would have had even less then last season to spend i think...

The reason Dodd was warming the bench was because he's only played in one reserve game since coming back to fitness and OGH has been doing an excellent job there - why drop an on form player. Feel Hart's sending off was legitimate. It was the ref's inconsistancy that pissed me off. We were...

What McGhee probably meant was that it's irrelevant what he thinks of Hart's sending off because whatever his feelings, he is now banned. and as a manager he has to be constantly looking to the next game and thinking about other options. McGhee has always been wiling to give OGH a chance to...

What was up with Sloth's whole Madonna earpiece thing? And what was his brother doing? Didn't really understand that. He really is an ugly bloke. But hey when I guess you can do all those things at once, it doesn't matter!

Cheers buddy. Read a lot, but usually in spare minutes at uni etc. so don't get a lot of time to post. Think we have got a good chance at some points against Cardiff and Derby based on todays form and, I almost can't say it, but the scum are ex-prem with the majority of their players from last...

Was gutted we lost today. Was so close but really thought we were gonna edge it. Ok, Gary Hart should have got the 2nd booking but it was the fact that Morrison handballed moments after and got nothing. This inconsistancy is shit and the ref was appalling with it. That's what bugs me the most...

McGhee more than has my backing he has my total faith. We lost the game today because of two momentary lapses in defence, and at this level you will get punished for it. I don't understand how people can want another manager. Do they expect that with another manager we will suddenly be able to...

Think I'd have him on the bench but not starting. Between now and the game he may be able to get ina couple of reserves games but don't think this will bring his match sharpness up to standard. Thought he looked good at Hull and by all accounts had a good game a Shrewsbury. Think all the...

Would love the FA Cup set s have never seen the final and it was played the day I was born! Also would be intersted in the liverpool game so I can see my namesake playing down the left at the Goldstone. Would also happily buy any copies of games from the last few seasons as well.

BUY McSHANE!!!!! Thats all I can say. We are severely lacking in terms of central defenders, and although we have a couple of young ones coming through, we need at least one other in the mean time. At the moment if we lose Butters or McShane only real cover option is Al-Abd and not sure how the...

Think Leon is an absolutely quality footballer - one of the best at the club. But at the end of the day, you need a striker to be scoring goals. He did have a good start however have noticed him drifting out wide again quite a lot reacently and as McGhee says you need a striker to really be...
