[ Instead of just leaving them to it, you thought that you would say something which challenged them. Hence - you are one of those people who don't realise how irritating they are. What if RL was irritated by them - and they don't realise how irritating they are? Apparently some rules only work one...

Violence is something I would never condone. However, people are entitled to shout what they want, unfortunately it is freedom of speech. By the sounds of it, you met 2 louts who wanted to vent their anger. As I said, I do not condone threatening or violent behaviour, but challenging his opinion wa...

Re: Nicky Hammond quotes and interview on Radio Berkshire

Bacon Double Cheese
Nicky Hammond said and readingbedding we need to move forward...to be a consistent top 2nd tier team is the aim
Isn't that a backward move as we are now in the top tier? :shock:


No for him the 2nd tier starts after the top 4 not after the bottom of the premiership

Re: Nicky Hammond quotes and interview on Radio Berkshire

Great to hear his response to the Arsenal question. Given that he is an Arsenal man his belief that there is so much to be achieved here was very encouraging. He turned down the chance to earn a fortune at one of the most prestigious clubs in the world in order to carry on what is obviously a perso...

Thought Shorey was about as good for England tonight as he has been for Reading this season. That is about average, decent enough in defence, cant pass his man and too many of his passes went astray. So decent touches though. Think he may need a rest for a while or some stiffer competition at club ...

The whole year inn Does anyone want to ring/fax the club and let them know the transfer window is actually still open?


I think they may know as we were given heavy hints at the fans forum. As ever no names were given although Wally teased Kevin that he would spill the beans.

That made me :shock: somewhat too! It's a Korean paper, from a Korean perspective. Simple. I've often wondered if our frustration with him is really with his cultural upbringing rather than him. It is easy to assume that football is football but there are real cultural differences between Korea and...

The point is that many rely on this section for info on STAR (Supporters Trust At Reading), so if there is a communication channel then use it, how difficult is that? But isn't that non-members as starliaison said - I certainly got an E-STAR telling me about the AGM. Seems that this one line of com...

How many did West Ham use ? How many did Fulham use ? West Ham I remember little Jimmy Walker in goal and Christian Dailey, Calum Davenport and Paul Konchesky in defence - no-one has ever heard of them have they? Unfortunately Nigel Quashie didn't make the team :D Not so sure about Fulham but certa...

shadesrwrf I think the club should turn the whole stadium in to one great big hospitality suite and be done with it. Football fans have no place in the modern game.


Quite right - no-ne in any form of hospitality can possibly be a football fan :lol:

I would love to see his report and read why he booked Shorey for kicking the ball away after three Fulham players got away with this offence. I thought Shorey was booked for dissent to the linesman as he had coped with Routledge (?) pulling his shirt for about 10 yards and then when he finally got ...

Not getting paranoid just yet but has anyone either renewed their parking ST for the 2007/08 season or received the application form from the club?

I would never dream of standing up and blocking someone's view at a home match, but away from home I think people should accept that things are bit more old school.

Isn't the term 'public transport'? Isn't the intent that it should take the public/rate payer/tax payer to where they want to go, whether it be work or social related?
