Rev Algenon Stickleback H
Adz1871 Farewell Bobby. Hope you enjoy the rest of your career.

As said before, that Millwall goal will stay long in the memory of most Reading fans.
.

Yep. I think that was the moment when I first thought "you know, I think we could be something special this year"


Dad sent a text saying just that to me after Convey's goal.

Hahnemann's Hairdresser Terffic season in 05/06, and since arriving here he has opitimised the 'Reading way' perfectly. Never forget reading an EP article about him explaining that although every-so-often the club send some players to do hospital visits at the childrens ward at RBH, Bobby Convey went once a week of his own accord anyway.

It probably wont happen, but it would be nice if he could make some sort of appearance on Saturday as a goodbye to the fans. He wont be remembered as one of the best Reading players ever, but will be fondly remembered by most.

It's why he plays on the left and not the right wing ...

When San Jose visit Colorado, I'll be sure to snap some pictures of him and provide a report to those interested. I think this is a very good move for him and provided he does well, he could work himself back into US national team contention as Bradley seems to favor a good mix between MLS and foreign-located players.

Oh, and I'll try and get him to sign my 05-06 shirt. :P

This would probably come the closest, mate: http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=20. You'll have to register first if you're not a member yet. Guess what the lead thread is there.
