Now I appreciate that standards are slipping and that spelling is increasingly seen as optional, but there is no excuse for misspelling a four letter word that is also the name of one of your favourite footballers. Only one "n" in "Glen Little"

In no particular order:
Shaka (what's the score?)
Em ewe are tee why
Shorey
Glen Little
Sonko (is superman)
Ingimarsson
Kitson (what a bargain)
Cureton (ibid)
Hahnemann
Convey

Honourable mentions: Kebe, Forster, J. Roberts, Williams, Pearce, Leigertwood, Doyle, Long, Sigurdsson. Wait, that's way too many...
For reasons other than ability: Bikey, Antonio, Parkinson, Cissé, Matejovsky, Carrico, Manset, Federici

Do you mean the 4-3 game? The one where it hammered it down with rain? Absolute classic, and possibly my favourite Reading game ever!

Yes, it was 4-3 wasn't it Rougier was a god that day.

Agree with the statement above, 10 is far to small an amount as I have left out some real legends.....

the standard top 10, 5 or 3 thread for the closed season, yawn.

The best I've seen in each position, allowing for the fact that players have good and bad days:

Alex McCarthy (really is, IMHO the best keeper I've seen in a Reading shirt)
Murty
Upson
Marriappa
Bridge (technically, I know but he will be (probably) our best left back to date)
Kebe
Sidwell
Osborn
Little (05/06) (very close between him and Jobi)
Kitson
Forster.

Honourable mentions:

Kerr, Dubcheck, Archie, McAnuff, Hislop, Sigurdsson, Long, Doyle and Ady.
