I think Sims could be a good signing. As was mentioned several times on the Bolton back from the game thread, we were crying out for proper width as an alternative way to break down the defence once they had scored and locked up the middle of the pitch. Given that Barrow seems the only other effecti...

UpThePrem Just checked GWR and every train from Paddington to Reading on Saturday after the game stops at Maidenhead and bus service to Reading. Gonna be busy.

Can't you just go Reading->Virginia Water->Brentford

and back again?

That's certinly my plan!

I went for Barrow, of the ones I've seen play he has added much needed movement and excitement in the forward part of the pitch.

Also liking the look of Clement, I think he will develop into a classy player.

Sad if true, but not entirely unexpected to be honest.

It's a shame to hear this news. Like many others I have very fond memories of watching Bobby play for us. To me Bobby Convey and Glenn Little epitomise Steve Coppell's team in the 2005/6 season.

I've probably contacted him seven times in the last five weeks.

Bet he is a right barrel of laughs...clearly not bitter!!

I can visualise the loud sigh and the roll of the eyes as Dave Allison sees Lee Johnson's number come up on his phone yet again

I thought that was quite an improvement on the Ipswich game. A as someone said earlier - quite a fascinating 0-0, and Brum look like a well organised team. Pushing Obita and Gunter up and having Evans sit back into the centre (effectively giving a 3-4-3 shape when going forward) really helped us pro...

1-0 win. Lots of mongs giving helpful advice such as 'forward' when we are retaining possession to see the game out!

So we know the style of football Stam wants, a possession based game....whether we like it or not that's the style we are going to play What hacks me off though is our own fans booing when the ball is being played around the back (looking for the opening) - i noticed yesterday that as soon as the f...

Last few games Kermorgant was getting clever little flicks to Rackels who was already making the apropriate run before what he was about to do became obvious. No problem if you didn't notice it, it'll come as a nice surprise for you on the coming season. Greed, It was just a germ on understanding, ...

paultheroyal Excellent post and a promising and more reassured future.

Thank you for sharing.

+1 - A reassuring read!

Looks like some of the local schools have broken up for summer. It's going to be a long 6 weeks . . .

Absolutely not, I've already spent too many seasons screaming at him to pass the ball as he runs like a blinkered cart horse into three opposition defenders.

Bit of a queue to get onto the website (about 15 mins) but once in it seemed to work fine. 2 Tickets purchased

Wingers in the squad 11 MF Jobi McAnuff (captain) (and injured) 14 MF Jimmy Kébé 19 MF Hal Robson-Kanu - injured 28 MF Michail Antonio - Injured 37 FW Jordan Obita - Out on Loan 41 MF Tomasz Cywka - not a starter yet 51 MF Ryan Edwards - only 17/18 I can see there may be an argument for starting wi...

Yes, yes and yes. For an organsation with the turnover of RFC, it employs precious few people, and it's especiall when they try to implement systems like this that it inevitably shows in places. Someone should suggest they secure more support from their IT supplier during implementation then - gene...

Just updated details for me and my son. One conversion glitch, the new system requires a password of at least 8 characters, so if your old one was shorter than this then it has been reset to a random one. Needed to put my eMail address in and get the password resent to me. Don't know if this was men...

Surely the point in being picked for team of the week is this specific performance. I thought he had a good game bar one calamity which should, but thankfully didn't, sew up the match for Donny. But to be honest even thinking he had a good game I don't see how you can justify putting a defender in ...

Too busy recording all those statistics
