Have they got undersoil heating? I'm 40 miles from Peterborough and it's been sub zero day and night since Monday. Location royals who no longer live in stated location. Turns out it wasn't as integral to your identity as you once envisaged I guess. Furthestflungfan here. 31° currently in Melbourne...

Does anyone know exactly where in London Dai Yongge lives? Just wondering for a friend...

Does anyone have quick access to the photo of a weird bunch of apparent gangsters that we all saw in the directors box last year? We all wondered who they were! One was asleep, several others looked very shifty, there was a classic gangster's moll, and one was Rob Couhig in a black fedora hat. I lov...

As we mourn the dearth of signings so far this season, we can only reflect on who we've had in the past. When the gloriously named Max Power came to town with Wigan a couple of years ago, I fell to thinking about what my Reading dream team would be, based solely on their names. Here goes: Death, Sav...

Have just lost meekly to Millwall...assume that this thread will now kick up a gear or two!! So far we have words like meek, languid and timid to describe our style of play. No passion of pace in evidence. What I do know is that without a striker, there will never be a sense of purpose to a team's m...

Why is it under 4 hours from kick off and yet we still haven't seen the team sheet?

I'm a clinical psychologist (- could be handy later today!) The correct question is "How confident are we?" It frames a positive mindset. Sadly, my answer at the moment is "Not very..."

Marlborough Sounds , New Zealand. 14,000 kms away!! Have full coverage through Be In Sport on Sky Sport, including a 90 minute build up programme!! Its been so hard following Reading this season on TV, but suddenly all my Xmases have come at once!! I'm tremulous, drunk and I'm in my pyjamas :lol: . ...

Nameless Amazing to be able to form an opinion based on a 10 minute warm up !

He was mostly just jiggling about...but it was stunning jiggling!!

I posted on Aaron a couple of years ago having only seen him warm up once on the touchline for 10 minutes or so. I was very impressed. Since then he's been out on loan to a Scottish side, and he doesn't seem to have figured at all in the pre-season banter. Don't think he went to Holland or Swindon, ...

Can we get more flow into this thread guys? Its nearly halftime and no real comments yet about the game. You are our eyes and our ears. Would love to hear more...

This is an incredibly important thread and should become the main focus for whats left of the season. Rating the players for 'Bottle Heart Commitment and Guts' is more relevant now than whether they played well or not. We're all getting sick of the not chasing back, the hanging off tackles, and the ...

Maneki Neko hes called pitt island royal, but he doesn't live there, so youre fine

Phew!!

It's a bit weird commenting on a game that I had to get up early to follow using online newsfeeds from 13,000 miles away in NZ, but here goes! Sometimes distance brings clarity re the bigger picture... Our form in the League has been hugely disappointing and 'turgid' would have to be the best word ...

Following the posts from New Zealands South Island, I can hardly say that I'm 'back from the game', but the current excitement emanating from this team is a global thing! We have a proper team again! I'm sure that we can all feel something building here...

Watched live on TV in NZ. An immense performance. So proud...I did a kind chicken dance when we scored... all by myself at 5am in the morning! Felt like I was there! We MUST remember how to play like this next season!

I watched Kuhl warming up against Ipswich at the start of this season, and could hardly take my eyes off him! A nippy, skilful player with energy to burn. He looked fantastic, and was definitely one for the future. Since then we've only seen scraps of him. He's always referred to positively in passi...

In Dunedin, New Zealand's South Island! 13,000 miles from the Madejski stadium, but on the edge of my seat! First time Reading have been live on TV in NZ since the heady Premiership days!
2-0 Reading. Mackie and the Pog.

This is my absolutely favourite thread! Love the speculation. Can lie awake for hours working out permutations for the last ten games. Keep up the chatter. Bullshit to some...deeply provocative data for others. We are poised between 2nd and 3rd place, and I'm being optimistic here! This tells me tha...
