Re: Standing and singing at Wembley

When we played at Wembley my experience is that you end up with some people wanting to stand up and sing, some people who want to just sit and watch the game, others who are too tense to get involved in anything like that and have a go at the bloke in front standing up and blocking their view. Then ...

Re: Back from the game - Cardiff (A) - Wembley special.

congratulations on last night ladies and gents, reading deserved winners in the end although i will allow myself some wistful thoughts as to what might have been if not for some comical defending for the first, and some terrible finishing from our forwards. once you had the lead it was reading's ni...

Re: Excited?

Away goals don't count which is good. I guess that Cardiff will be set up pretty defensively then tonight, and us likewise on Tuesday. Wouldnt bank on it. Expect an open game, our strengths are going forward, we're not great at holding leads or playing defensively. I am nervous more than excited, o...

Re: Jimmy Kebe is going to win us the play-offs

Surely if Kebe is even anywhere near fit he'll be risked at some point won't he?

Our main concern is our goalkeeper. Bywater is an accident waiting to happen.

Re: Play-offs 2011 Forest v Swansea

Thought Swansea played out of their skins first half and defended superbly second half. Although Forest didn't look great, couldn't understand why they appeared to have Wes Morgan as their playmaker.

Re: Who's going to win the play-offs?

http://www.wsc.co.uk/content/view/7251/38/ Just picked this up off wsc - does this ring true? We're a bit different in that we've been staking the farm on promotion every year for a while now and have obviously not been in the premiership before. (Last time in Div 1 was 1962!) I've heard a lot of fa...

Re: Who's going to win the play-offs?

I see your Craig Bellamy and I raise you an Andre Bikey. Andre Bikey is a true gentleman. A lovely soft bloke with a real heart. He is passionate on the pitch and a vigarous defender of racism with the occasional headbutt. But he doesn't whine, spit or get in fights on nights out. He keeps it on th...

Re: Who's going to win the play-offs?

No-one's denying what he does for charity. But he's not the type of player that Reading would ever sign, whether they had to pay his wages or not - too much baggage, too much of an ego, too much potential for disrupting the dressing room. You have to know how this club thinks to understand it - and...

Re: Cardiff in the play offs then

I dont really want to advertise this as was hoping to get a ticket but... Cardiff have THE BEST parking for away fans in the world. Away car park is right outside the away corner. About 2,000 spaces, purely for away fans as you can't get into home area from it. Its signposted off the motorway. For ...

Re: Who's going to win the play-offs?

Are you telling me that if Reading had been offered a player like Bellamy on the same terms you'd have wanted RFC to refuse them? If this is a serious question then I suspect the vast majority would not want him. He's not the right kind of person. He might be a horrible little bastard on the pitch ...

Re: Cardiff in the play offs then

I've just heard that the last train from Cardiff to Reading on a Tuesday night is at 9:25pm meaning you'd have to miss the second half of the match in order to get home... just thought anyone with more than 1600 royalty points should know... :wink: * though other methods of transport are available ...

Not as far as I know. The drinking thing has been much exaggerated IMHO, I doubt it would have got any air time at all if it wasn't for the result against Boro and subsequent post mortem. You are actually on the CCFC payroll arent you? Ni, I think you'll find he's actually surplus to requirements a...

Re: Cardiff in the play offs then

ZacNaloen This can't be true, Cardiff have irrefutable video evidence that Bellamy did nothing.


I think the reason he didn't get charged was to do with the fact that no-one had any video evidence of anything in the tunnel.

Let's be honest, none of it was any more than handbags. Stupid nonsense.

Our team will know what happened... and never mind what the FAW said.


Ah, what happened in the tunnel afterwards? Bellamy threw a waterbottle at someone didn't he?

Re: Who's going to win the play-offs?

Is there a football fan in the country who are complimentary about Cardiff? They don't exactly make it easy to like them. They have certainly had their share of thugs in the past although they have improved in this respect. I just think some of the comments about the Welsh being vermin is unnecessa...

Re: Cardiff fans

Well if they read this, they were lucky twice against us this season and we should have beaten them twice. Goal never crossed the line at our place and scoring an equaliser that was at least 2 minutes after the amount of injury time given at theirs - laughable. Morally, we've beaten them twice this...
