Statement from the Isthmian League regarding Staines Town: The Board of the Pitching In Isthmian League met earlier today, and amongst the items discussed was the statement published by Staines Town FC yesterday. We have now written to the club, noting their objection to playing further matches at W...

Simmops He HAS to go now.

Worst Reading team in 30 years of being a supporter. I am officially boycotting the team now and supporting my local non league team.

Do you live in Staines?

Anyone else seeing this message? Sorry, you cannot buy any more tickets to event Reading v Nottingham Forest 05/12/2020 12:30. Please check the selling criteria for this match and if the ticket owners are eligible. I haven’t bought a ticket yet. I have over 3,900 points & paid the renewal fee. ...

If Bowen is clueless I don't know what most of the managers we've had in recent years would be described as. Not proven managers, Stam (never managed) Clement (poor previously) Gomes (Not exactly successful anywhere) Bowen (DOF) Yes they all know football but we have an unbalanced squad and need so...

Martin Kuhl has left Staines Town “by mutual consent” after just 11 league games (W0, D2, L9).

Simmops Awful game, and a complete distraction. We will never win the cup so should go for the playoffs instead.

This season the Cup Final & Play Off Final are two days apart. In the ludicrously unlikely scenario that we qualify for both, which game would you prioritise?

Aside from the fact that if shouldn’t have been a corner in the first place, looking at the replay both Gunter & Morrison are appealing well before the ball does/doesn’t cross the bye-line; I’m guessing for handball against the Forest no. 22. The current law is that any handball, deliberate or n...

Yes, if the defender is deemed to have made an honest attempt to get the ball then its now a yellow I was in line with it in the East Stand, it looked like Meite was losing control of the ball so whilst it looked a pen, the sending off was very harsh If it’s a pen it’s a sending off as Malone clear...

From Footballwebpages: Staines Town have announced that former Birmingham City, Portsmouth, Derby County and Bristol City midfielder Martin Kuhl is their new manager, taking over from interim manager Mahrez Bettache, who has been in charge since the departure of Anthony Gale. Kuhl was most recently ...

From Despair To Where? Not seen it tonight. Was Holloway on, whinging about not getting the Reading job.

Murray commented that Mark Bowen must have interviewed well. Holloway didn’t bat an eyelid & complimented Bowen on the job he’s done so far.

Use it as a drinking game.

You’ll be pissed by kick off.

I thought Gallagher had an excellent game for them. Can only dream of our forwards putting in a shift like that. Blackburn had our system sussed from the start. Huge gaps behind our wing backs for their forwards to run into, drawing our central defenders out to full back positions, where they looked...

Slightly puzzled by the BBC report... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46766459 ...which talks about us "defending in numbers" and only looking better once Forest were down to 10 men. At no stage in the game did Forest ever have a spell of pressure and look on top. I wouldn't say it w...

Wayne VVanklyn sells vending machines.

Missed the first 35 minutes but here's my thoughts. Mannone 5 at fault for the first goal, he's just a bit average. Yiadom 6 lots of promise there but ran in to challenges too often and that shot was stupid. Better than Gunter Richards 6 weak and got bullied off the ball a few times same as last ye...

Current law states: Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other c...

regardless of that, pricing must be agreed between the two sides, since the away team get some of the gate for FA cup games, so its not as simple as us just deciding Not since last season. It's why the club had to subsidise our trip to Old Trafford. http://www.fsf.org.uk/blog/view/The-price-of-chan...

The BBC's Match Stats: Barnsley are winless in six home league matches (D1 L5) against Reading, since winning 3-0 in August 1996 in the season they won promotion to the Premier League. The Royals have kept eight clean sheets in their last 13 league games against the Tykes (W8 D3 L2). Paul Heckingbot...

Couldn't get a ticket last time we played there; hopefully better luck this time.
