Re: We are going up!

Based on your philosophy....and my own attendances (2001 being an incursion into Wales) Reading should be one lonely team at Wembley :wink: Well having been to those 3 I shan't be there if we make it as I have just realised it is Saturday not Monday because of the World Cup, and I am committed to b...

Re: chronicle article response

There is a letter to the Chronic on the STAR website. Suspect next stage will depend in whether there is an apology to RFC and its supporters or not.

Re: Safe-Standing petition

given the large number of people who were standing who were ignored by the stewards, and the fact that they had to wade in deep into the row to pick them out, I think it's most likely they the weren't thrown out for standing. Making gestures towards the away fans seems much more likely. Wrong. I kn...

“We had the trial set up here at the stadium and we examined it, stood in it and we think it’s great,” he said. Anyone on here involved in that? It was the Football Supporters Federation SS roadshow - so it was just a few rows of seats/rails set up in the car park not a full blown trial needing a c...

Re: The importance of the first goal

Your sample is too small. Come back when you've checked 24 teams. If you insist The average points per game of the team scoring first is 2.2 (all 24) We are in 7th place with 2.52. Wigan are best with 2.81 and Yeovil worst on 1.38 Ipswich seem to buck the trend - 4th in the scored first list but 23...

Re: Back from the game ..... charlton

Also, not sure who was listening to BBC Berks post-match but pretty pathetic from the unidentified player who told Dellor that he was disappointed in the fans. If you're going to have a pop at the fans, at least have the guts to put your name to it. I trust this is ironic on the board where no-one ...

Re: Barnsley - in the car

Just got back to Reading. We were pretty poor to be honest, and Barnsley looked far from relegation material. All in all a draw is fair, we had our moments, but they were few and far between. McCarthy - made a couple of decent saves, but his distribution is woeful....I found myself almost wishing F...

Re: Barnsley Away

Alfie10 Tickets came in the post this morning, says number 5 and 6 on them! Good following as ever,


They are unreserved and so numbers mean nothing - probably 5 and 6 that morning as I got mine at the stadium and they used that was how they entered the number that day.

Re: BFTG - Derby

Sat in the home end, our fans were in fine voice. Had McCarthy to thanks for first half. As others pointed out Guthrie gave the ball away a few times but is the heartbeat of the team. Baird was solid, Obita didn't do anything wrong, Mccleary was menacing down the flanks. For a big lad, Pog rarely w...

Re: Jimmy Kebe

....Kebe knows his body better than the medical team. Following an examination, the medic reports to Adkins that Kebe's fit, while Kebe reports back saying he's not fit. Knowing how arrogant medics are, he probably didn't even ask Kebe how the injury felt, jus thought he knew better. You do realise...

Re: Season tickets 2013/14

It's also selective use of stats, presented in a misleading way - it must be the second best ever for us in the football league at this stage of the sales process . Because in a couple of seasons in the FL, when we looked like we'd go up, sales of STs and half STs later in the season pushed the tot...
