Compo's Hat Hope STAR realise everyone will be able to hear this on the BBC!

I just saw a bloke dressed in a bobble hat and scarf in a full Reading kit with Anton's name on the back go into Maplin's and buy up their entire stock of radio frequency jammers.

G'day

Yeh that's fair. And I guess out of every thousand extra members you might gain if you get three or four that actively get involved then it could make all the difference.

Why did you resign, Dirk :?: Three main reasons, which I outlined in a long (and probably highly tedious) resignation letter. I'll précis below : 1. STAR was, in my opinion, far too risk-averse and far too resistant to change. Some decisions had recently been made at the time that I was deeply unha...

Should sexist bricklayers be running the country

We tend not to pay a lot for players. As The Swiss Ramble ( a blog on football finances ) stated, in the last 4 years up to 2011, we were in the bottom 4 for net transfer spend (just below Watford), yet in the top six for wages.

Why are you posting on a Reading forum then

This might sound hard to believe but down here it's pretty much a family game now.

GCallaghan Steve is a former bricklayer and is the only MP to have two Premier League football clubs in his constituency.

Sorry to be a pedant but I can't let this pass.

Reading, Stoke, Swansea

Red was before your time surely creative?

Bit indifferent for a long time tbh but I hear you floyd.

My main excitement at promotion was the prospect of having three away games within walking distance of my flat but even that's been tempered by the realisation that Chelsea are charging £50 for tickets. Fvck that for a game of football.

yeh he's mostly harmless

Condemning yourself to a lifetime in the Thames Valley in order to catch Reading v Man United seems a bit drastic though, no

54 minutes in and getting tired of hearing "Team GB" already. "Great Britain" shurely, all the other nations are referred to by country. And it's UK anyway isn't it? Northern Irish olympians compete for us surely? The British Olympic Association has resisted the idea of changing...
