[mini _dariusz]

I think he means he saw the first ever goal AT the madstad

How did you crack that code...

Well, i am not sure i have, it's only a hunch.

Go with your instincts. You could be onto something

[mini _dariusz]

i wouldnt put money on it m8.

[Jack Celliers]

I too saw the Swindon 4-1 game from the away end with water filling the terrace and my friend Matthew's welly boots
6-0 defeat at Walsall in the promotion season
Dean Horrix scoring from a cross
Trevor Senior scoring from an overhead kick
A Notts County player being Readings player of the month
A goal from a goalie
That Newport game and the one against Wolves
Barry Hunter sent off for headball
Robin Friday sent off and cheared by the whole crowd
Friday's name still in the programme after he had gone to Cardiff
My face in the programme with a ring a round it

[The 17 Bus]

Fasted ever hat trick by a Reading player.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Two goals from a goalie
A table topping team losing 6-0
The first Reading goal scored by a black player
A grassless pitch
A team who didn't play in their named town
George Duck

much of the above........and oh.........2-0's wallett

[moo]

Peterboroughs young supporters bus being bricked

Pathetic.

[Y25]

Exeter 4 Reading 6. Never laughed so much at a football match. 200 Swansea pricks smashing up Oxford Road. Reading 0 Palace 8. Reading 2 Wolves 1 both our goals in the last minute. Reading 4 Wolves 2.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Reading 0 Palace 8.

was that a youth team game or something?

[Rev Algenon Stickleback H]

..that really old fan "Henry", being mascot for the day, waddling in to take a shot from three yards out, only to do an air shot (the ball was stationary) and fall on his arse.

Stuart Gray and Robert Fleck score 4 goals each by half time

A fat Plymouth hooligan charging towards the away end at Home Park, not realising nobody was following him.

A group of Swindon fans in a car park opposite Swindon station, taking the piss out of us after they'd beaten us 4-0, only for us to see the police van entering their fenced in enclosure long before they did.

Jerry Williams making Kenny Samson look rubbish.

[Dirk Gently]

A fat woman being match mascot - at home to Aldershot in '83.

[Forbury Lion]

Schards, i think the list of key events you have missed is equally as long, such is your poor planning and demanding wife.

As ever, you think wrong.

Finch - part time supporter/full time retard

I don't think so sunshine. And there's no need for name calling.

But you are wrong, i am no part time supporter.

as moderator I agree, there is no need for name calling.... so please don't call him Finch again.

[Royal Boil]

Reading 1 - 2 Arsenal in an FA Cup game, 1971 (maybe 72). As I remember it, we scored all three goals and yet still managed to lose, which is the way it seemed to be then. Oh happy days, down at the poor excuse for a cowshed that was Elm Park, rejoicing under the nickname of The Biscuitmen, and queuing up for fetid hotdogs, putrid burghers or lukewarm cups of Bovril at one of the vans parked in the ground. Whatever happened to the good old days?

PS And I think, at 28000+, that was the record attendance for a Royals home game, though I could be wrong.

[eleventh earl of mar]

I think the record attendance for Elm Park was 33048 against Brentford.

[SLAMMED]

I saw Federici score.

[mini _dariusz]

as moderator I agree, there is no need for name calling.... so please don't call him Finch again.

I am serious in that i w2ant to make a complaint against him. Continuous name calling is not on, it's happening time after time Forbes.

Please suggest he serves a ban to hobnob. This type of behaviour is uncalled for.

[OzBiscuit2004]

A fat Plymouth hooligan charging towards the away end at Home Park, not realising nobody was following him.

One of the funniest things I have ever seen.

[Jackson Corner]

I remember playing Swindon once at EP when both keepers scored own goals in a 1-1 draw.

[Ralph Jolly]

"Rufus is a dog's name!" V QPR

[Stooper]

Bating Stockport at home in a 1st vs 2nd match (15 years ago today!)
On the pitch v Brighton when the title was secured
'That' Osborn volley at Charlton
The 'fire' at the Notts County game and Archie's subsequent injury
"Are you watching Mark McGhee?" sung loudly on ITV and howling at John De Wolf
Wembley
Being shit for 3 years before relegation
Sunderland on a Tuesday night, and losing 4-1
Michael O'Neill
The Magnificent Seven
Mid-table mediocrity
Oldham and Bury on a Tuesday night
Cardiff
Brentford

and then I stopped attending.

Although during those times, I missed barely any games...the ones I did miss include the 6-0 Tranmere, 6-1 Palace, 6-0 Bristol Rovers....
