Alivey i remember reading on this forum when bikey was last sent off a few people saying he acted like a raged monkey.. do you find that acceptable? we had 'sulky' hoon who eats dogs apparently and every black person who plays for us happens to be lazy ?
the fact is our boo boys cling on to whoever is foreign or black?

How is listing a few ex-Reading players justifying the argument that Reading fans are racist? I don't understand your point at all - Oster isn't even black!
hes welsh
On the evidence of today Lita was/is not hated by the fans, neither was Bikey and you forget that Gilkes and Shaka are two RFC legends.

Alivey I hope Middlesborough fans are less racist than our own and he excels and breaks into the England squad

That's rubbish. The fact that Lita was cheered before kick-off today clearly shows that the majority of Reading fans are NOT racist. Why would they cheer a black/foreign person if they were racist?
Andy Hughes was a boo boy, and I'm pretty sure he was English. When Reading fans get p*ssed off at players consistently, it's because they are frustrated at the way they play, not because of the colour of their skin.
Any racist comments are from a very small minority, and I personally have never heard anyone say anything racist at either the Mad Stad or Elm Park.
Every black person who plays for us happens to be lazy? Where on earth have you got that from?

Archie's penalty The only racism I've heard at a Reading game was Stockport away in April 1994.
Some horrible things said about Trevor Francis and Andy Preece.

John Peel I cannot understand why people are slagging those who clapped Lita. I was shocked at how graceful Lita was when came over to the East stand - I honestly thought he was going give it some to us. Thought he deserved the reception he was given. It's nothing about kissing his arse - it's so rare to see that kind of reaction in football and we should appreciate it for what it was.

BenReadingFCSLAMMED Fair play to him for coming past the east stand with his hand up.

Well Trevor Francis is from Birmingham and deserves everything he gets.
I remember the monkey chants from the South Bank in the early eighties.

parky To be honest it wasn't supporting the opposition I clapped and chanted Lita's name today because I was making a point to Hammond. This is a striker, something we are in desperate need of and he was on our books Lita never chose to leave Reading he was released and he also scored a goal at the Madjeski somethin Reading striker only do once in a blue moon.
