Who admires Reading?

My vote (if I had one) would probably go to Southend Utd, just over Crewe.

 

[TSB]

Sponsor - I thought we had the coolest sponsor...not so obviously

Club marketting - Dick not in there even though his company did the wonderbra stuff

I'm a muppet because you posted something that is over a day old?

Yep, i like the conclusions you've drawn there!

Fine, if you're not happy about kanchelskis, would you prefer:

GOSBTS,fixtures,Quiche or Packham MOM?

 

[Dave the OAP]

where else was it posted Mr Horton?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I'm not surprised other clubs admire ourselves and Crewe so much.

It's our natural generosity and spirit of giving that so warms people to us. Principally the giving of three points and a generous quantity of goals to every opponent we play.

[Barrel of Fun]

Best websites? Sponsored by Premium TV. They are all identical!! How on earth could they pick 7 nominees if we all have the same website!

 

[TSB]

Ok well money's on you knowing kinky then! I haven't seen her for a few months but she seemd ok when i spoke to her on monday. Sure she'll be flattered that you were asking...

 

[swindonseagull]

I will openly admit I do not read all of the posts on NSC as about 70% of it is childish drivel....

Total agreement.

How on earth can Gillingham be in the category for best sponsor?

Their sponsor is "MHS Homes". oooh... really funky

gay, gay and gay

 

[Gully]

Wouldn't say that Bramall Lane is any better than Cov or Saints as they are new grounds, but the atmosphere there is certainly leagues ahead. I am a bit disappointed that we aren't nominated under the best sponsorship category, Skint has to be the coolest sponsor ever.

 

[The Large One]

Why have Norwich got so many nominations? What's so special about their place? Even the Chairman thinks they're too quiet.

And as for the best Premium TV website... they're all exactly the bloody same. :thud:

MY 9,000TH POST BY THE WAY. WOO-HOO! STILL MOANING.
