There is no way we would have had pages and pages of an after game forum discussing the minutia of the ref's performance if she wasn't female!

We should play "Opposition Fan Bingo"; see all your old favorites such as: "The ref was sh1t" "Our striker couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo" "How lucky was Player X not to get sent off" "We have no Plan B" "How does X get a game ahead of Y...

Solid and deserved win. Northampton are no mugs; Nolan has them very well organised and they had a threat with Fornah and Wheatley all night. A clean sheet was excellent, and that stemmed from a really confident performance from Stevens in goal (whose distribution was intelligent and created opportu...

Obviously we are going to have to start converting those chances in order to win games, but as most people before the game were expecting an easy Cardiff win (which this wasn't) maybe they should try to park their confirmation bias for 5 minutes and acknowledge that the team is getting better, they ...

Is this fixture now definitely confirmed for 15.00 on the 1st, and when do you think they will have the tickets for sale (my daughter is over here from Australia at that time and I'm planning out her activity). TV Fixtures haven't been picked yet but there's no way they're picking our game. The TV ...

I think we will nick it; 2-1.

4 individual games that stand out for me on a personal level: Reading 4 - Plymouth 3 (1985??); 3 goals down and we come back to win 4-3; 40 years on and it still gives me goosebumps! Reading 2 Wigan 1 (2001 Play Off Semi Final, 2nd Leg); it wasn't just the significance of the game, or the manner in ...

Was speaking to a couple of Exeter fans at the end of last week, and they think Wareham has been doing ok for them so far (though the less said about his Father, who has been publicly moaning about the Manager not playing Jaydon enough, the better!)

What I find strange* is that a large % of those fans who say that this is a nothing competition they couldn't care less about, are the same fans who reached for the razor blades and paraquat because we lost to Swindon in an earlier game, and are now moaning loudly because we didn't win "convinc...

Many thanks!

We need Swindon to do us a favour!

They don't lose to either West Ham and MK Dons, whilst we beat MK Dons, would mean we go through with Swindon.

F-T Southampton 1 Reading 3 Other league results today Woodley Utd v AFC Portchester - postponed Rivermoor pitch unfit ???? Wycombe Wanderers 4 v Sholing 1 Badshot Lea 1 v Beaconsfield 5 Winchester City 7 v Fleet 1 Is there a link to the table please? Also, how many go up/go down this season? From ...

Last three results against Stockport: 1-5 (1998) 1-4 1-3 So if that pattern continues we'll only lose 2-1 right? Then on for a 1-1 draw in the reverse fixture. That 1-5 game in 1998 was just an utterly miserable night; not only was the football dire, but it absolutely lashed down before, during and...

Reading win as Wrexham won't be up for it.

Reading win as Wrexham won't be up for it.

Steve Archibald, Scottish International, ex Spurs, played 1 game for us in about 1992 (?)

I am very much in the "Hunt In" camp; he has earned the time IMHO, to turn things round and I think that there are clear signs that things ARE improving. Genuinely, right now I see us finishing comfortably mid table or higher, though the play-offs are not likely this season. However, if we...

At least we have begun to create more chances than a couple of weeks ago and in Marriott have someone who knows where the net is. I think there are clear signs things are turning round and whilst I don't see us being a play off team, I really think we have it within us to be a top half team. That ha...
