Exeter - Reading - Karma

[Ex Shelton Seagull]

They won the Simod Cup at Wembley in 1988. Beat Luton 4-1. In front of, ooh, 500,000 people I think. Greatest day in their history don't you know. Very indimidating.

they couldn't defend their silverware the next year.
They got relegated that season.

 

[Pevenseagull]

the refusal to pay off the debt is EXACTLY the sort of thing that normally makes me dislike a club, but in this instance I just can't seem to get worked up - why do Reading generate such APATHY?

that's the one

I shared a house with a Reading supporter for a couple of years in the early 90s and he had some recollection of some trophy or other

(I say Reading supporter, he was a Saints fan, but he lived in Reading)

Obviously their fans have INTIMIDATED you into being apathetic.

The first post sums it all up for me.

 

[Easy 10]

That must be, without doubt, the most WASTED stadium in the country. By rights it should be an intimidating cauldron of noise and hatred raining down from its all-enclosed steeply banked stands. It is undoubtedly one of the best grounds outside of the Premiership.

And its bloody wasted on a bunch of lily-livered, apathetic, bespectacled geeks who only got interested in football 4 years ago, and just pop along to the match while their mums shop for their socks and y-fronts in the town centre. Reading fans wouldn't know an atmosphere if it anally raped them at their 14th birthday party, and they'll make more noise at a Microsoft trade exhibition.

If there was any justice in the world, the Madejski stadium would be moved lock-stock from its grotty M4 location, dropped directly onto Falmer village, and instantly renamed the "f*** YOU" Arena.

I think you summed it up a treat there.

Without doubt, one of the best posts I've ever read. Anywhere.

Typical of Reading. They had already lured Exeters manager to be the clubs new Academy director, without paying compensation! He did not have a full time contract due to Exeters financial situation.
