Can't be there in body but will be there in spirit.

Thank you Sir Steve and you have my undying gratitude whatever you choose to do. Here's hoping it's to stay here and take us back to the Premiership.

Well done Dom and so many others that have made this event happen this evening. You are all stars.

Going to the ground to show support for your manager, fair enough, I like that idea.

Creating ipetitions and facebook groups is absolutely pathetic.

... as a way to spread the word and for people to show support who can't get to the ground? Don't really see the distinction to be fair.

Been away with work and therefore unaware of what was going on. Now too late to get there but Good Luck and well done to all of those who have.

Fingers crossed for a positive result and even if it doesn't work at least he'll realise how people feel about him.

I never had you down as particularly bright FR, but surely you can see that using the internet makes a huge amount of sense when it comes to spreading word of this to as many supporters as possible?

Trouble is, I probably live a fair bit further away than you - not in the Royal County (or even one bordering it for starters!).

Text from RL at the ground reckons about 200 odd with more arriving. I thought the guys on Meridian did great. Particularly Dirkers speaking about the superb ovation for the manager/players/chairman after the game on Sunday from a group of fans who's team had just been relegated. That's why this club is so special.

Will this function tonight change anything? Probably not, but.....

1. It just might
2. At least Coppell will leave knowing what the fans truely thought of him.
3. It's cathartic after a huge dissapointment and sets a positive mindset going forward.

Well done everyone involved, my initial response to 17 buses first post was along the lines of 'what a waste of time' but, on reflection, it's anything but that and anyone involved should be proud.

Couldn't be there as I don't live in Reading any longer, but completely support what everyone is doing. Haven't seen any coverage on the news at all which is a shame. :-(

You said "going to the ground to show support for your manager, fair enough, I like that idea." And the internet is a great way of the spreading the word about that, be it a petition, Facebook group, whatever. Looks like a good turnout, anyway.

Could people who are in contact with those at the ground asks them to take loads of photos for the benefit of those who wish they could be there!It sounds fantastic and i love the way this came from the fans and developed so quickly.Hob nob is nitrous for 'all talk to action' but this has shown a great level of passion and unity and everyone involved should be congratulated.
