Reading Relegated, I'm so happy

[philgull25]

Reading
Fulham
Middlesborough
Wigan
Bolton

What do ANY of them bring to the Premier League?

nothing....'plastic' fans who used to support manu or chelsea etc 'manufactuered' clubs..... rubbish football. middlesborough always look like they might do summin but dont. coincidently i think middles borough could be next season surprise team

 

[Bluejuice]

I'm not particularly interested in any of them.

I'd replace them with:

Brighton
Norwich
Forest
Sheffield Wednesday
Leicester

 

[gruntage]

having lived in reading whilst at university - i am so glad they have gone down.

shut all the pricks around here up, 'cheering' on readings success. half of them cant even name their old stadium. show up when your winning....

wonder how many will renew their season tickets now....

Be easy on Fulham and Bolton.

Fulham have been good, its jsut the last two years they've been shit. van der Sar, Saha, Zat Knight. They were a good outfit under Coleman.

Bolton brought determination with Allardyce, and Megson has brought it back after Sammy Lee. Just a shame they will always have a small fanbase. Have to see how they do next season, think there gonna be on a bit of a downward if Megson changes their style

It's more of a travesty that Fulham are still hanging on in the Prem, they are truly dreadful, have been for years, and it's it's only Pompey's ridiculously crap pre-Cup Final form that's saved they're worthless skins. Nailed on to go down next season, you can bet your house on it.

I'm not so sure. Stoke are down already. So is one of Bristol City or Hull. Thats only one relegation place to play for the likes of Middlesbrough, Wigan, West Brom, Fulham & Bolton. My moneys on Middlebrough. I can see another clearout in the summer.

Its same old same old apart from us

I want different teams who FILL THEIR STADIUM.

Swansea would be go, Bristol will be good because then can fill their stadium (OK its small but it they have character)

 

[Statto]

Just think - if we'd waited a week we could have had Coppell instead of Adams

Good job we didnt wait then.

 

[TrevorDove]

Do you think that they will press on with plans to extend their shit stadium to 35k?

Small minded town, shit club - lets hope it's the first of many relegations for that shitty little club.

The list of pointless Premiership fixtures is endless:

Wigan V Bolton
Fulham v Boro
Everton v Derby
Derby v Newcastle
Reading v Man City
Birmingham v Sunderland
Chelsea v Anyone
Wigan v Sunderland
Sunderland v Reading
Fulham v Derby
Sunderland v Aston Villa
Newcastle v Wigan.............. etc. etc.

The list is ENDLESS!

 

[seagullsss]

i absoloutly hate reading shite fans and just hate em

 

[El Presidente]

Just as well some of you weren't around 25+ years ago to watch meaningless matches in the top division such as

Brighton v Bristol City
Brighton v Swansea
Brighton v Notts County
etc.

 

[Giraffe]

Happy to see them go down. Fulham deserve to stay up much more than them, and I hate their fans and Coppell. All round great.

 

[Juan Albion]

I must admit I watched the Derby/Reading game just to enjoy seeing the Reading fans singing and dancing and doing the Pompey chimes . . . and then go all quiet.

The Derby fans were singing "you win 3-0 and you're still going down. . ." (before they got the 4th, of course).

 

[sir albion]

Made my day although i live here
The fans are proper part time and the away followings at times this season is terrible for a premiership club,many of my mates are spurs and chelsea but have season tickets.Don't get me wrong the chairman has done a great job and they haven't even splashed that much cash

Don't be stupid football began in 1996.

I've had this idea for a while that the last Champions League place should be decided by a play off.

The loser getting a UEFA place etc...

I don't need to explain to how a system like this would revitalise the premiership in the same way it has for the lower leagues.

I explained this to some Premiership fans at work and their response was:

.. you'll end up with a shit team in Europe.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Having a fair few connections with Aldershot, I have to say it did amuse me seeing Reading come down and my Aldershot mates are loving it, back in the league and Reading being relegated.

The flip side is that Reading are not a bad blue print of how to grow a club and I do hope they stick with Coppell.

Crikey, Stoke are already down must have missed that.

So, a few years ago there was no chance of Wigan sustaining Premier League football, they are still there, and Reading were written off in their first season, but stayed up. But now we can catergorically state that Stoke are down, golly, you are a little ray of sunshine aren't you?

 

[Biscuit]

Reading are a joke club. Reading have a disloyal, Palace-loving, mind-numbingly boring, characterless, twat of a manager.

Am I happy they went down? YOU f***ing BET

Yep. f*** em. Readings just full of all the players/managers we didn't want anymore anyhow

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

i'd imagine other premiership managers are doing their sums already to see if they can afford to tempt andre bikey away from the madjeski
