windermereROYAL What standard of team will we be playing when/if we go down?

A handful of sides from Premier League clubs such as West Ham, West Brom, Stoke and Southampton, who were relegated with us, and Championship clubs like Fulham and Aston Villa and Norwich

I'll say he'll go for

Al Habsi

Gunter, Moore, Ilori, Blackett

Popa, Evans, Swift, Williams, Grabban

Mendes

Subs: Jaakkola, Obita, Oxford, van den Berg (if fit), Kelly, Beerens, Kermorgant

Anyone know why Reading Town's match was postponed ?

Thanks for the information Four. It will be interesting to see how the Hellenic League season pans out for the local clubs.

It's early days I know but with Highmoor Ibis winning again today and maintaining their lead at the top of the Hellenic Premier it got me thinking about what would happen if they end up winning the league. Does anyone know if they have ambitions to play in a higher league ? If so, would Palmer Park ...

Not quite true to say we've never heard of the two male investors. Royal Rother named them a while back 2 charges have been registered against RFC? Really - by whom? 2 recently formed companies. Universal Fico Ltd (Director is Sumrith Thanakarnjanasuth) and GPT UK Investment Ltd (Director is Narin N...

Anyone any idea why the fixtures are all over the place (days wise) - what's wrong with everyone kicking off at the same day/time?! Platini wants qualifying matches spread out to create 'a week of football' so this will happen for all the group matches. For instance I think England have qualificati...

Portugal 0 Albania 1 - that is all.

Personally, If I was taking over a football club I would not want to invest any real cash into it until the takeover was complete and signed off by all parties otherwise I'm just lending money to a company I have no control over, Likewise SJM isn't going to authorise any big changes the Thai's may ...

I could be wrong but isn't Edwards more of a right winger if he plays a wide role ?

2 in today Late bid we can't refuse for Obita Iffy loan replacement plus another loan in the coming weeks. I too am fearing interesting interest in Obita. If he goes then maybe we'll get a young player on loan from whichever club he goes to. Two in seems a reasonable estimate. I'll say they will be...

Playing devil's advocate - West Ham away in the Premier League.

It's hard to predict as I assume we will have at least another one or two injured by Saturday but I'll say Federici Long Cooper Pearce Gunter Mackie Akpan Kuhl Norwood Taylor Cox Subs Andersen Griffin Edwards Fosu Tanner Stacey Sweeney (if fit. Didn't he get a facial injury for the Under 21s recentl...

In view of the current situation wasn't it foolish at Scunthorpe to ask Cummings and Blackman to play on after receiving their injuries ?

Just been playing name the fourteen injured players.

Have got 13 so far - who have I forgotten ? Someone obvious no doubt but when there's so many....

Cummings Kelly Obita Hector Ferdinand McCleary HRK Karacan Williams Guthrie Blackman Tshibola Pog

My biggest concern on this subject are the four players who were injured at the end of last season and still are. McCleary - why was his extremely serious injury not diagnosed properly ? Williams - he had an operation on his injury at the end of last season and, although rushing him back wouldn't ha...

I don't know how credible this guy is, but it would make sense. @Randall1871: Gary Hooper and Karl Henry both close to joining #readingfc. Hooper season long loan - #readingfc to cover all wages. Henry - nominal fee. @Eagle436 Henry early this week. Hooper probably towards end of week - #ncfc still...

WCBAP

If he plays at the City Ground on Saturday I thought the rumour was that he would be wearing the red shirt of Forest.

If we had a crucial one off game I would favour experience and go for Federici Gunter Pearce Ferdinand Obita McCleary Williams Karacan Mackie Cox Pog I didn't consider Norwood. Chose Ferdinand purely on his experience. Harsh on Hector but I'd like to see more of him in away games when the going gets...
