I’m so sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you, CR, and his family and friends. He was a great poster and I always used to enjoy his posts, especially on the academy. He was so knowledgeable on the youth that I was always convinced he must have a connection to the club. He’ll be missed on here...

There used to be a fans network site (forget its name now), knew someone who used to update the Gillingham site. By contrast the Reading site was dead (guessing everyone was on here instead) but I remember posting on it once and Brebner actually replied :shock: When we signed Gorkss I told a QPR fan...

John Clarke and Mamadi Camara both offer glimpses that they can be of use to the team and then disappear for 6 months. Anyone know any updates on them? Surely it's time to call it a day, they've been doing this for years now? I believe Clarke has an ACL injury so season ending. Camara I think initi...

I think he spent a while as Chris Evans’ sports guy when Evans started doing the Radio 2 breakfast show. Yes he did, they spoke about that pre match. Didn't listen to Chris Evans on R2 that often but seem to recall him telling Evans about going to watch us on a Sat but not admitting that he was wor...

This bloke on the BBC Berks commentary is superior to Dellor in every way. You absolutely know when you've scored with him that's for sure. Brilliant passion! Was pleased to hear Jonny Saunders was doing it again, he hadn't done it for ages (Hull away under Ince he said so almost 2 years ago i thin...

Stranded mentioned in another thread earlier in the week about how we've tightened up our defence. One thing that occurred to me today was that this has happened since Andrew Sparkes left.

In the 7 games we've played in all competitions since then just 3 goals conceded.

A rare game for me, and even rarer away. My first trip to the Valley, was in the home end (went with non Reading mate) just behind the Charlton dugout. Disappointing result but it wasn't a 0-4 performance, in fact until Charlton scored i thought we were marginally the better team. The first goal act...

as reported on BBC website this morning... Wrexham's 107 points breaks the National League and professional English single-season points record. That BBC comment :? The National League isn't fully professional is it? Unless I've missed Maidenhead turning pro, thought they were still semi pro. Natio...

The Mail article also mentions about not paying the wages on time in November, suggesting it could lead to a separate deduction or another suspended penalty.

On the other hand, the year we got promoted he kept the most clean sheets in the league and won POTS (I think). Nope, he came second to Alex Pearce. Oh, ok - runner up. My bad :roll: I remember Gorkss didn't even come in the top 3 that year despite being our best centre back (IMO). Karacan was the ...

In reality, it was a pretty even game after the early howlers from Adam Liability. I've just watched them back and I'd forgotten just how bad they were. Just after the 2 minute mark in this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPxBikbaEQs Gunnarsson's shot was closer to goal than I remember. The...

Sutekh And the winner is…..



…. Away to Man U so at least we can watch the defeat on the telly while coining the cash

Millsy Ince is Mystic Meg and I claim my £5.

When thinking of the draw yesterday I thought of that exact tie
Didn't realise Ince had mentioned it yesterday.

Orion1871 Rinomhota awarded MotM in televised Cardiff-Leeds Cup tie.

Which surprised me as apart from his assist for the 2nd Cardiff goal and one block tackle i'm not sure how involved he was in the game.

Baba with an assist today And an assist of sorts for Portugal's second goal as well, should have been intercepting the pass really. Only saw the last 25-30 minutes after work but seemed as if he had a decent enough game going forward on the few opportunities he did and he did well with the assist, ...

Poor attendance today. Our home form has improved so why are the fans staying away? I think we've lost a lot of long-term fans, people who've had season tickets for years etc, and those people are very hard to win back. We've been so poor at home for so long that fans probably found they didn't mis...

Re: the commentator, didn't listen today but Kevin Hand did the Blackburn game in March. IIRC he was fine, and it helped that he had seen the Fulham-Blackburn game not long before, but getting him to do Millwall away when he usually works for BBC Radio London doesn't seem the best idea... Where's Jo...

With the club’s Academy at some point around 2019/20 I think, came from originally Tooting & Mitcham. Thanks Sutekh. Saw him play for the U23s away at West Brom in Jan 2020. Was a big brute of a centre back lacking skill and finesse. Played alongside Dorsett who looked a better prospect and had...

My local non-league side earlier in the month signed a player who apparently was with us, Lexus Beeden. Struggling to remember him, when was he with us? Did he feature much? Planning on going to a game next month so will be interesting to see how he does, assuming he plays. With the club’s Academy ...

Brian and Steve are looking very well. Some quality on display on the highlights. So many happy memories from some great players. Sad that none of Sidwell, Shorey, Harper or Kitson could make it, arguably three of them being the star players in the league going into 2005/06 season. Also no Noel Hun...
