Steve Clarkes' Barmy Army or whovever is the managers' barmy army.
There is nothing Barmy Army about the Reading fans
It should be Steve Clarkes mildy supportive crowd.

Like this! (Apart from the misuse of the apostrophes of course. Now corrected.)

Be loud, be proud and back the boys and make some noise
Number 13, Reading fans
The big 13 flag being dragged across the East Stand because the fans can not be trusted to pass it along theirselves
The PA system playing music too loud and the same music every game in the same order
That siren
The golf buggy not being used when there is an injury
Fans leaving the game early
The stewards in the car park who have started letting cars go before buses
Sweet Caroline being overplayed - 3 times at most, once before the game, once at half time and once at the end but only when we win.
Sweet Caroline being played when the ref blows his whistle
Music when we score

I've not been to the Mad Stad for a while but do your annoying fans still cheer when the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea are losing at half-time?

Seems a bit weird, especially if you're in another division.

The bloke behind me in the North stand that gives a running commentary of the game. He knows sod all about football. Thinks Gunter is an Irish International. Only happy when he is moaning and we are losing. Ever thought of actually encouraging and cheering on the players mate ? Never seen a player play better after you boo him. Only respite I get is that he usually leaves ten minutes before the end.

Sweet Caroline played right up to the kick off.

Kingsley playing in goal when the kids are playing at half time.

Last game of the season the usually morose bar staff, were wishing me 'enjoy the game' Is that a joke ? Have they seen us play ?

Still will not stop me renewing my season ticket though.

Tannoy / Music too loud so you cant have a conversation before the match
Clueless bar staff who cant use the tills or provide refreshments efficiently
Taste of Heineken in plastic glasses
Sweet Caroline too much
Air raid siren
When we play poorly :(

The pizzas they sell in the concourse. Bought one once, laughed when I saw how miniscule, overcooked and unappetising it looked, was refused a refund and binned it.

Fans booing anything that goes wrong
Most of Y20 Row X for their constant moaning and screaming at every bad decision the ref makes 3 times in a row for which one bloke does constantly
The car park traffic afterwards
The orange stewards by the away buses
The beer and the price you pay for that cup of shit

I got so fed up with people moaning and running their mouths during games, that I've started listening to the radio commentary. It's actually turned out okay, because I have eye sight issues and it helps me with things on the otherside of the pitch.

I bloody hate the BBC Radio commentary too.
