Rival Watch

[Stranded]

Massive week starts now.

We play 3 games, Derby 1.

We have the chance to open a 13 point gap over them, or see it close to 1. Can also push clear of Peterborough too.

Likelihood is somewhere in between. Oh for a couple of wins back to back now...

Derby are full of confidence and are playing like a side going for the playoffs. Rooney >>>>>>>>Pauno. Sadly, we have had relegation form since the latter part of last season.

My money is on Derby to survive but a win tomorrow and Saturday would be a huge step in the right direction. Sky are willing Derby to overtake us so they can film the great escape.

Hull are shit, its 3 from 5 not 4.

Keep dreaming

3 from 4

[SouthDownsRoyal]

Will finish 3-3.

No

[Zip]

Two months ago we were 20 points ahead of Derby from the same games played. Now we are just four ahead with two games in hand.
Pauno cannot be allowed to stay in charge for any longer if this continues over the next week.

Are you new to Reading FC?

He. Is here until the summer

I see Bielik started for Derby tonight so I assume they must have paid Arsenal what they owed for him yeah?

[JR]

It's gonna be us isn't it. I honestly feel I know what's gonna happen tomorrow against Bristol. It's gonna be so predictable. We will crumble as we have been doing nearly every f*cking game since November.

It could easily end up as ourselves, Peterborough and Barnsley and I don't doubt that's probably the bookies favourite relegation 3 right now. Still plenty of games left though yet and things can quite easily change.

Last time I looked, Derby and Reading weren’t even quoted in the relegation odds. They are considered too tarnished to price.

I can see Birmingham City potentially being dragged in as well. Another game we need to win

Every team has that bad period during a season where everything doesn't quite go to plan!! now i know that our bad spell is the mother of all bad spells , but it just takes a win to put that spark back into everything.
A positive result tomorrow evening would be huge going into Saturdays "Sold Out" match at the SCL, so if tonight's results coupled with the game on Saturday isn't enough to get motivated about then you don't deserve to be in this sport I'm afraid.

Clinging to some sort of hope, there's nearly always a team that has a sold called fall from grace during the latter part of the season. The bottom sides suddenly start fighting and scrapping for everything and start closing the gap and this one team gets the jitters and plunges downhill !! That team really could be a Brum, Hull or even Brizzle ....i,m clutching at straws to try and motivate myself for the game tomorrow

Or more realistically us.

I think you know the answer to that. Pretty astonishing it’s being allowed to happen.

I must admit a lot of people seem to think that Derby are going to catch us and, whilst that's still a very realistic possibility, I'd be hoping our form would improve starting this month (tonight) against BC. Of course they are going to catch up when we've been losing nearly every game and haven't won since November.

A win tonight and that could have a domino effect and with Coventry in front of a full house and then Peterborough away, we could quite easily pull clear.

I don’t agree.

Having been on the run we have been and he still here what do you think will do for him before summer?

Should we lose heavily tonight the protest on Saturday will be ramped up. I think the protest could be what sends Paunovic on gardening leave until his contract is up. I don't think he will be outright sacked but I do see him being replaced with Gilkes in the short term.

He should have gone months ago but we have remained outside the relegation zone. Derby’s run of form will impact on our owner’s thinking I reckon. If it looks certain he can’t turn it around he will be fired especially as the pay off becomes smaller with each passing week.

I will lose less words next time, you clearly struggle.
