Going back to diving/simulation, I really think commentators have a large part to play in getting rid of this malaise. Just watching the Arsenal Liverpool game and have seen plenty of diving and falling over after a slight touch. But no commentator has criticised any of it. The more that happens the...

Like most, I have a huge hatred of diving/feigning injury, its just ruining the sport. A lot of my dislike is all the little decisions given frequently in the middle of the pitch. Almost nothing happens, player appeals to ref, foul give, play starts again quickly. I don't see the point?! I would li...

I think the major difference between us in 2005/06 and Leicester this season is that Leicester had played in the Premier League for a number of seasons before being relegated, whereas we were a Championship side. They have a number of Internationals in their team before they played a single game th...

TalkSPORT this evening - 5.41 - brilliant passionate speech from Hugh Woozencroft as to why Reading 106 are the best Championship team ever regardless of what Leicester achieve. Nice to hear a presenter / pundit talking so knowledgeably for once. Fair play to him I fear when Leicester break the rec...

Superb debut from Connor Hall as he scored all 3 in the 3-1 win for Brackley over local rivals Banbury

Some unpleasant and a little embarrassing scenes after the third goal went in, as Banbury yoofs tried to get in to the Brackley end

Hopefully some bans will follow

As long as you don't wear any colours, that lends itself nicely to an afternoon having a couple of nice pints in one of Oxford's many lovely pubs. Oxford is a total shithole. I'll drink in Reading before trudging up there on the train, fcuk their shitty pubs and boring city. No accounting for taste...

The one thing that stood out to me was kept in the game even when we were under the cosh. We always looked like we were capable of hitting them on the break and Azeez has well and truly proved me wrong. We definitely need another experienced striker and as mentioned above Ehib isn’t going to improv...

leon I will never forgive him for missing a sitter against Fulham away and then those cnuts going down the other end and scoring an easy goal.

Indeed

How was Azeez's goal? What were the two we conceded like? Caught Smith by luck just checking in now and then. I missed both their goals, just got the replays. I think their second even RoyalsTV actually missed too. Their first, after a period of pressure. I can't remember it enough to comment but i...

FT 2-2. Excellent result. On to two more huge festive fixtures. We've actually lost ground today. On balance, not lost ground. 4 of the bottom 8 played each other and we had by far the trickiest fixture, which we've got out of the way without losing. 1poimt gained in a free hit. And regardless of w...

genome The correction is wrong too

Just corrected the correction

Snowflake Royal

Jinx 3-1 on the Sky vide-printer

It's almost like at L1 level, none of the big media outlets care and just rely on amateur reporting for updates

Maybe but you'd think whoever is reporting they'd know one team from the other!!

Good first time pass from Boro no. 3 but Mason Clarke slipped as he shot and maybe that deceived the keeper.

Bit of a soft goal really

Sky commentator expects a close last 15. Really?! Has she seen Reading away?

Reading Biscuitmen surely

Chance to reclaim the old "proper" nickname

Millsy lol @ selles

Think he's clueless as a manager but ref is a twat for that.

What did he do

Would never have thought it. Guess at the time I used to park there we were a semi competitive football team so the walk came with some element of excitement so didn't feel as long. And now it feels like a slow soul sucking drudge?! Oh I haven't been for 3 years and won't again until Dai has gone. ...

That is never a mile is it? Felt a lot less when I parked there. Bang on a mile according to Google Maps. Would never have thought it. Guess at the time I used to park there we were a semi competitive football team so the walk came with some element of excitement so didn't feel as long. And now it ...

Star are getting pelters over on Twitter over the party decision (not surprising really). Would imagine people who donated wouldn't expect that was how their money was going to be spent plus guess the staff would rather have cold hard cash over a party. https://twitter.com/STARReading/status/173389...

I'm not convinced a coalition of explayers as owners is a good idea. The more people it involves the more possibility of fallings out and pulling in different directions. Yeah they know football, but how well do they know business management and running a club? It seems to have worked pretty well f...

Its almost like we've got an awful owner who has instigated an environment of chaos/mediocrity and short termism that has lead to us having an inability in a lot of cases to offer deals to certain players, whilst having a total churn of managers who want to bring in their own players to fight const...
