Good post Floyd. I agree with most of your comments. For some time I have thought how poor Rosenior is, his distribution is shocking, he's extremely athletic but it's not always enough (Long also falls into this catagory). I have a problem with full backs who cannot wrap their foot around the ball w...
I agree Pearcey, I said after the game. Swansea never gave up and looked a very decent as did Burnley this weekend. But Swansea played us on a good day and that was the best I have seen us play for some time. I thought we were fortunate against Burnley though.
Why would we want him back! The Grass is always greener Mr Kitson. After his poor performances at the back end of last season there's no way I would want him back, the man has so much talent, what was he doing last season! After his Christmas drinking thingy he went right downhill, and to think just...
I read the first page of coments and apart from pie eater who was spot on, I do wonder if you guys actually watch the same matches as me. We were second best to most things, energy levels were not as high as they should have been,very few passing moves. If Burnley had a bit of luck we could have bee...
It was Pardew that told him to sit in front of the back four. I always thought he was pretty quick with good feet and he was best served further up the pitch. You could see in his first few games he liked to roam forward but they seemed to knock that out of him. Unfortunately we had an even better a...
Can someone clear up something for me? They keep telling us that JM has paid out 40m over the years and he will get that back when he sells the club. I'm sure a post last year said he took 11m out as a part payment on the 40m, so the debt is now 28m - or have I got this completely wrong?
Burns put this club back years - he massively under estimated the league we were in. No he didn't. He took over the club when it was in a mess after the Bullivant era. His problem was that he didn;t understand the division we were in, he did not under estimate it. He tried to get us playing the pos...
Me too Burns put this club back years - he massively under estimated the league we were in. We had players on long contracts with high wages. Can you remember the magnificent 7 he bought in on transfer deadline day - no not really they were all pretty poor. This is exactly why JM runs the club the w...
ddetisi Have BBC berkshire lifted the online ban for this game?
Yeah - I can't believe I tuned in for the last away game and with no explanation it was not on! Was this because the local radio station had matchday rights? I thought my PC was broken!
yes - I also think Billy Whitehurst (my childhood hero) and Steve Moran were in the stand as Reading players but were cup-tied. Oh I loved a bit of Billy!
The reason he doesn't fit in too well is because he doesn't play at the same pace and intensity that we have come to expect from Reading this season - he has great skill and ball control but that alone is not enough. We wanted him to get stuck in when he doesn't have the ball and not let the ball co...
I thought Asaba was ok - I think he was sold by Burns when he took control and he just didn't fancy the look of him - probably not scottish enough also he was probably on a very good wage - burns could get rid and bring in some even worse players. We never really used his best asset his pace, it was...
All I can say is Hunt is rapidly becoming one of my favourite players - his work rate and passion is fantastic, he seems to play every game as its his last, I can put no blame hunts way. In saying this Wally shouldn't have reacted. I think our players were a cut above because they tried to rough us ...
