There seems to be some Oxfordshire teams in the draw, don't they have their own Cup ?

I would have thought an Elizabeth Line station around Suttons Business Park/ Aldi would be well placed and not too expensive to fit in - further east you hit Sonning Cutting that might add to cost

The squabble was between Smith and Mukairo, Knibbs was peacemaker.
Smith had a likely tap in if Mukairo had crossed and Smith told him so

Garrity is seemingly injured and they have just brought Jensen Weir in on loan from Brighton

I think Ron Noades was the owner and manager of Brentford at one time

A competent manager should be able to organise a reasonably solid League 1 back 4 from who we have, with Holmes and NGW added. Same for a front 2 or 3, with Smith added. The problem is there is no centre midfield box to box engine room to link the two together. Savage and Knibbs dont look up to it, ...

In, last time I was there was in 2000 in the League Cup and I think Jamie Cureton scored on his debut

Maybe not the most important and not one of our goals but Danny Murphy's for Fulham at Pompey in 2008 hurt as it sent us down

No, but I was at the replay at a very packed in Elm Park

On the Paddington train back after games there are some good, some bad but Arsenal and Fulham always stick out as smug tossers. The Old Den was intimidating except for the night of Dean Horrix's family's testimonial game that was very well respected - from memory I think Gazza gave his time to play ...

Andy Alleyne - I think RFC's first black player

Leroy Lita

Michael Dobson - either signed or a loan from Brentford for part of 05/06 season and made just one appearance once promotion assured

City 0 Reading 2 2007 two goals from Lita at the away end
Italy 3 Brazil 2 82 World Cup

I was at that game in 1970 - in the morning I had watched Huntley and Palmers play at Vauxhall Motors near to Kenilworth Road in a decent level non league game - a friend of mine's dad played for H and P.
I think Luton won at Elm Park in the return game with Macdonald scoring the winner late on.

Watford 0 Reading 0 in the Premier League in 2006 was bad

Football special trains to Bridgwater and Shrewbury in the early 70's - I think we won 3 0 at Bridgwater but can't remember the Shrewsbury score
More recently Derby away in the run to the semi final with Yakubu's winner was good fun

What about Robin Friday - he did well with the ladies by all accounts

I've heard he is injury prone - picks up too many knox

Or a petition to Great Western trains - there is a fast train to Paddington at 10 12 that unless it is a few minutes late the buses don't usually get you there for - you then have to wait until 10 44 for a slower train
