Reading are crap

[Royalee]

Qualolity post Floyd.

[parky]

apply for the managers job next time it comes up.

I did! Didn't even get a sodding rejection letter.

Thing is....in life.....most people are just programmed in to doing things as they don't know any better....then whinge about them...such as Floyd on this thread.

Why go and watch Reading if it's that bad....

Why have a partner, as most people only ever whinge about them....

Why have kids, as most parents only ever whinge about them......

JUST, WHY BOTHER?

Plastic Chelsea fan with no sensitivity in "not understanding what human beings are like" shocker.

you left 'inexpert WUM who still manags plenty of bites off the mongs on the Team Board' off your list

[From Despair To Where?]

Have to agree 100% with Floyd and Ian Herring.

This is my first season in 22 years without a season ticket. Yeah I give the excuse of living 200 miles away and having 4 kids and not being able to afford the time or money to go but to be honest, I started getting bored of it half way through the first season in the Premiership. I think it was a dire 1-0 home win against Fulham that got me wondering why I was investing so much time and emotion in something that gave so little in return. I don't miss at all.

When Murdoch tried to merge us with Oxford, I marched because I cared and it meant something, when we went down in 1988 I was distraught, when we were 45 minutes away from Division 4 at Chesterfield I was paralysed with fear, when we were crap and broke under Porterfield I was angry and wanted answers, when we limped out of League 1 under Bullivant and Burns I was angry. Now, it's as much as I can muster to shrug my shoulders. I'm not even angry about the situation. We're shit and to be honest, I'm just not that bothered any more. It's a pantomime. I remember that Sky advert from last season with some jester hatted pillock and the caption "We know how you feel because we feel the same". Summed everything that's wrong with football. You have no idea how I feel and you certainly don't feel the same. Sky have turned football into just that, a pantomime. Football as entertainment, presented by braying idiots, for braying idiots. The comparison to X Factor is quite apt. Style and image over substance.

Exhibit A, heard in the last 2 consecutive home games...

"Your ground's too big for you..."

Followed by "Your stand's too big for you" etc etc

Even the chanting at the games is pantomime like, the referee/opposing player who makes a foul is the villain for the performance

I realised that as soon as I hit submit. Same initials, both media moguls, both have a negative impact on football and both scum in my opinion. Having an argument with Sky at the moment so have Murdoch on the brain.

What I also hate is the whole self importance of it. "THIS REALLY MATTERS, IT'S LIFE AND DEATH".

No it's doesn't, it's not life and death, get over yourself.

Don't recall being pwnned.

[M Brook]

The game is going rotten, and moving away from the grass roots, hopefully one thing that JM is doing is limiting wages for incoming players.

What's an 'incoming player''?

[Seal]

I do wonder why Floyd goes to matches when he clearly hates it so much.

Must be a masochist. Or at the very least just loves oxf*rd about everything. Is that why you pay to go? To have a licence to moan about it?

[Mike Hunt]

Floyd, I <3 you.

May I sit next to you at the Coventry game when I come over in December? I would assume that matchday would be awesome around you.

Floyd = WIN.
