We have yet to see the best from many of these players, so I would look at my own shortcomings and bring in an additional coach, someone who could help get the team playing the "right way" and "get the ball down". The latest punditry wizard spouting this type of crap was the Mad...

A very predictable affair between two equally one dimensional teams. Considering both sides were set up to control the ball in midfield with three central midfielders it was strange that both sides chose not to play one single pass into the area of the field that they'd loaded with players. the cent...

Quite frank Durso was abysmal Whist I have seen worse performances from a referee down the years Durso's failing and the reason his career has nosedived is that he is essentially a coward. What I would call "a percentage ref". He fails to judge incidents on their individual merits and reso...

Although not generally critisised, posters have questioned Griffen at right back as yesterdays weak link. If you think about the shape of the game and the players on show that should come as no surprise today. The West Brom right winger Jerome Thomas was played high up he pitch and very wide which ...

A fantastic advert for Championships football between two confident, motivated and well organised sides. It goes without saying that with a reasonable start to the season we'd be right up there going toe to toe with West Brom for promotion. Unfortunatly as it is we've been treated to three tremendou...

Spot on Quiet Man

Perhaps we could consider who is going to get us out of the shit and lead a miraculous escape from relegation to Div 1.

a. SJM's checkbook
b. New experienced journeyman manager
c. Brian Mc
d. Experienced pros
e. Young Kids
f. Fans
g. We are doomed and might as well give up.

What a complete shambles. We only have ourselves to blame.

The competition for who can make the thickest post of the week is clearly gaining momentum.

Hit the nail on the head.

My problem was with Steven Hunt the person,a gobby little shite who could'nt keep his mouth shut. A reasonably put opinion. Indeed he was. Tactically Hunt's attempts to engineer a move last summer and during the transfer window were largely in keeping with the strategies employed by countless other...

Hunt has made a significant contribution in recent times to Reading. He could be a good player on his day. He took risks and sometimes thats why his limitations showed up. He would try things that you're average Championship player wouldn't have in his locker on the training pitch, let alone a highl...

Watford could sell Smith - Russo Watford chairman Jimmy Russo has not ruled out the possibility of the club selling striker Tommy Smith. An offer was accepted from Sheffield United last month, but Smith is thought to want to stay locally. Russo told BBC Three Counties Radio: "If there isn't eno...

We need an experienced striker, that is all. Don't be surprised to see the Tommy Smith deal resurected. Looking at recent comments by Watford Charman Jimmy Ruzzo they need to sell players to balance the books. They will not get the £2 million fee they want. The price will come down in the last week...

Just how good these youngsters prove to be will hold the key to Reading’s season. Pub conversations about desperately needing strikers, wingers and defenders will fade into insignificance if Reading can remain injury-free and the majority of Church, Henry, Robson-Kanu, Davies, Karacan and Pearce ha...
