Re: Ponderosa Florida

I am currently in Florida and took the family to a Ponderosa on the 192 today. Anyone been to this restaurant past marker 13 heading towards Gatorland? Yes, I've been there, prefer Sizzlers myself. (2nd mention for Gatorland this week...) I prefer the Golden Corral when in Florida. I can report the...

Re: Tribute to Robin Friday on F365

I saw him play quite a few times, and he was the most gifted player I ever saw in the hoops. Was he our greatest player ever? I doubt it, if only because he could have been so much more. He would of course be in my top XI but the first name on the sheet for me would be Steve Death, almost as much of...

Re: Ah Mr Holt- we've been expecting you...

Unfortunately I agree with him. If we had done the "decent" thing then we would be being applauded for our fair play, we just look like cheats at the moment. Just my opinion........ :shock:

Re: Dissapointed- The goal that Never was.

Unfortuantely not end of. Reading FC's image will be tarnished by this, we pretend that we are a fair minded club and that the Oliver Holts of this world were wrong. I am not saying that this has never happened before, I was at the game in 1978 when Youlden didnt score, what I am saying is that it w...

Re: Dissapointed- The goal that Never was.

Should a player deliberately miss a penalty when one has obviously been incorrectly awarded? Should a team let the opposition score when they have been awarded a goal that was clearly offside? Should a player who handles the ball intentionally in the penalty and gets away with it go running up to t...

Re: Dissapointed- The goal that Never was.

Well we took the goal and it will stand and we get the away point. However I dont think that we can ever complain about a dodgy decision against us again. In my opinion we should have said that it wasnt a goal, I understand how difficult this would be, but its not like a goal line clearance or an of...

Re: 7-0

I was disappointed. In my hundreds of years watching football I have never seen one team score more than 6 in a game. Yes, I was at the 0-6 against B Rovers. I was also at the 6-0 versus West Ham. And in the past I have seen a fair smattering of sixes, but never a seven. Sort it out Coppell. WHAT ?...

Good bit of business for Chelsea, pay him £1,000,000 to warm the bench for a year and then get £5,000,000 from Villa :evil:

Re: Little joining Pompey

To be honest I would have thought the fact that the club has continued to support him and pay his wages while he has been sat on his arse may have inspired a little (no pun intended) loyalty.

He has reduced himself to a Pardew in my eyes.

Re: Fascinating - Pick your favourite stat from this lot

Then you have a player like Jerry Williams with 309!

The mind does play funny tricks


I always liked Jerry Williams, maybe more graft than craft but always kept going. He wouldnt get a look in now, but we were in 3rd/4th division at the time.

Re: Time to button it, John Madejski

I dont for one minute think that JM is just pocketting the cash. I do think that the sky money and (parachute payments?) will allow the club to rebuild and come back stronger.
