Funniest RFC Moment?

[AndyRFC]

Funny/strange moment at Cardiff a few years ago, having three referees and a steward being the lino, Dean Morgan headed the winner Rob Earnshaw should've equalised with the final kick in about the 101st minute!

The Wolves game when Gilksey was playing for the Wolves, he got injured and stretchered off with the South Bank singing "Run, Run, Run, Gilksey" had me in stitches.

Also any football connected with Paul Bodin

[Ashfordroyal]

Ollie Kearns when attacking the town end, tried to pass a ball round a defender whilst going the other side himself, fkced it right up but made out it was a brilliant pass to the other Reading player who was luckily on the overlap!

Isn't that the game that Archie scored two late goals to sink them and condemn Magoo to playoff misery?

Correct - Gilkesy's injury contributed the majority of the 6 minutes of injury time.

At Elm Park a single Millwall fan climbing the fence, coming over to the south bank and offering violence to the entire stand. This was I think shortly after our keeper removed a toggle spanner from the goal mouth!

At the Madstad, Pants Day and Keith Scott throwing a pair from the pitch into the east stand, priceless!

Can't recall which keeper we had a different one every week around this time!

it was simon "spanner" sheppard

Turning over Southampton 3-0 on a frozen Elm Park pitch, RFC wearing astroturf trainers while the Saints skated around on studs.

Souness's enraged pitch invasion at the final whistle was a sight to behold, brought to mind his famous Galatasaray/Fenerbache flag-planting episode.

More recently, some of the inflatable antics at Blackburn were hilarious!

the display by all the oxford keepers back in whenever it was in the 90's, i think we ended up 3-1 winners at their place, the banter we handed out to the keepers, i felt, really did put them off their game, they must have had 3 different goalies that day

7th March 2000. (My 40th. I did "The Fans' Verdict" in the EP.)

[Man Friday]

Oldies like me will probably attest to the comedy value of watching Ray Hiron and Roger Joselyn in the 1970s.

And "Manuel". 100% effort, 10% skill. Tried to head the ball 18 inches off the ground in a melee of flying boots.

[Man Friday]

Brian Carnaby by the way.

A few that stick in my mind:

- Dylan Kerr leading the away end in song away at Luton, Feb 96. Was also threatened with ejection as he kept putting his feet on the seats.

- The Sunderland fan running onto the pitch at EP when they were 4-0 down and booting it in before evading 3 policeman and leaping back into the away end. (97/98?)

- West Ham fans mass cheering, easy chants and subsequent conga line after winning a corner last year

- Watching the Brizzle fans go mental after Cureton puts one in and cups his hand to his ears after enduring an entire match of 'paedo' chants

- Oldham, 2000 - "What a waste of petrol"

And not Reading related but one of the funniest moments I've had at a match.

- Went to Coventry v Bradford, last day of the season when they'd both already been relegated. 90 minutes of inflatables, conga lines, and 'taunting' chants of "We went down before you" and the like. Boring 0-0 but such a great atmosphere. The stewards even opened the gates and let the fans mix on the pitch at the final whistle.

Bournemouth Away in 94.

We had half the ground and people kept running from stand to stand when the ball was up the other end.

Match finished with gilksy clean through, his shot going just wide, before Reading fan runs on and slots it in the corner! Cue pitch invasion. Ceefax even showed it as 2-2 (Gilkes 90) before correcting it.

Total carnage all day.

I was behind the goal that day. It was so crowded that I couldn't see properly. Shot was fired in, crowd went up in celebration and I was left wondering why the ref had ruled out what I thought had been a perfectly good goal! Didn't find out about the interference from the fan until nearly a week later!!

Am I correct in thinking that had a dog, rather than a fan, run onto the pitch and applied the final touch, the goal would have stood?

[Forbury Lion]

I remember an away fan falling down the steps.

The rubbish streaker during the Gillingham match

Muzzy Izzet taking the full force of a shot on his unmentionables, He was in serious pain

[Barry the bird boggler]

Could employing Bullivant and then Burns count as comedy moments?

Employing Bullivant becuase Burns had turned them down but they'd already spent good money on having TB put onto the tracksuits certainly does.

Simon Shepperd.

HTH

Bobby Mihaylov

HTH

Have I stepped into a parallel universe where the Bulgarian international Borislav Mihailov is worse/funnier than the utterly inept Shepperd? The man who spawned Tshirts with I'VE SEEN SHEPPERD CATCH A BALL on them?

Weird.

I still insist that Gary Phillips is worse than either of those two.
