The Andre Bikey welcome thread

[Arch]

Bikey falls in the same category as Basil Brush for me. Can't see a picture of him without grinning broadly.

I love you Andre,

I miss his mazy runs from defence when he got annoyed with our attackers

[NR_Royal]

BTW, have you seen Rosenior's leg breaker?

You may have seen it but I fear we never will.....

My defining memory of Bikey was in one game. The ball was played forward towards our defence, and Bikey charged towards it. It should have been a simple volley upfield but instead Bikey threw himself at it for a ridiculous diving header. He missed the ball completely and it sailed over his head, and down the wing to an opposition player. Bikey got up, charged in on him and slid in perfectly with both feet, winning the ball and crunching the man, before turning away from another attacker and releasing Hunt. Comical yet Brilliant - that was Bikey

[Stuka]

I remember when we were at Watford during that 'ghost goal' game. He scored a perfectly good goal in the second half but it was disallowed, clearly because the ref was trying to make up for his earlier mistake.

Great player, but throwing his shirt on the ground during that playoff game was disrespectful.

[Pepe the Horseman]

My second favourite Reading player ever.

He had to buy a gun when he moved to Reading because of the high level of racism.

I assume you are joking because everybody knows he bought that gun in Moscow.

My own personal favourite moment of Bikey-ness was at Doncaster when we were into injury time, seeing the game out and preserving our lead. In the dying moments of the match Bikey was demonstrating his ball control skillz by the corner flag near the Doncaster goal, i.e. as far out of position as he could possibly be whilst still being on the pitch.

He's in the same category as Jimmy Kebe for me, an entertainer first and foremost.

he was dreadful

[PieEater]

Had a knack of knowing he had 5 seconds before getting tackled and used 4.9 of them before passing.

[John Peel]

he was dreadful

You either never saw him play or you have a odd view on what constitutes dreadful. At times he was immense. Others he was below average. Never really dreadful though.

Some of his defending was dreadful. If it were Peace or Mills making those mistakes they'd be crucified. Given that Bikey was a 'character' he got away with it on here.

[Woodcote Royal]

If I make it this afternoon he will get a big cheer from me.............................he wasn't everyones cup of tea but calling him "dreadful" really is a pathetic assessment of his contributions for RFC.

Why are you going to a Bristol City game?

[Woodcote Royal]

I wasn't sure if it was Rosenoir or Bikey who has gone to BC.....................oh well, it's the thought that counts
