Best One-Liners heard at a Reading Game

[Binfield Royal]

Some years ago I took my son (aged about and a few of his mates, to QPR away. Fairly boring 1 all draw but we did the whole football experience and when we got home, his Mum (my wife) ask him "well how was it...? This is more or less his reply..

" well, first we went on the train which was good and then on the undeground which I didn't like so much and then we had this huge hot dog with loads of ketchup and Coke and sweets and then we saw football and the referee was a oxf*rd and then we walked to the..."

Hold on says Mum, go back a bit - what was the referee?" "oh" says son, he was a oxf*rd - everybody said so!"

How many inmates did they have playing for them??

[Mid Sussex Royal]

First game I went to was in 1971 relegation season and there was this old git just behind me on the tilehurst end terrace who shouted out "you're fecking useless Swain" at Malcolm Swain who was a below average midfielder for us at time.

Left an impression somehow as this guy was older than my grandad and was probably first time I'd heard an adult swear

Are Reading by far the greatest team the worlds ever seen?

There is also only one Shane Long/Matt Mills. It's been proven.

Donny at home this year i think, Tabb missed a one-on-one:

TBBM: "Gylfi would have scored that with his tongue"

Made me chuckle

[alderdude]

i used to leave the games a few mins early when i used to go to the footy with my cousin coz my uncle picked us up from green park (terrible i know but was worth missing a goal for this classic bit of history)

ipswich (i think) at mad stad i think 04/05 season finished 1-1. its 1-0 a goal goes in while we outside the stadium can hear fans cheer ipswich fan outside the stadium starts cheering before the post goal music comes on to which me and my cousing reply by singing along da na na na da na na na.... was like 14 at the time was pretty funny

Not a one-liner and not at a Reading game

[Linden Jones' Tash]

Sometime in the late 80's, Mark Robson, who is on loan to us as a precocious teenager, sends over a high cross that eludes everyone (again), to which (big) Billy Whitehurst is heard by me and my mate in the Tilehurst end to scream.."what do you think I am? A fecking jack in the box!?"...
I seem to remember Robson hugged the touchline for the rest of that game...

[readingbedding]

Nice Username!

Is Linden Jones still working in some capacity with Swansea City FC?

[Northern Git]

Bournemouth away, back in 2000 and something. Cannot remember the score now but may have nicked it 1-0. Bournemouth hit the post / bar several times during the game.

Walking back to the car across the park after the game a Bournemouth fan in front of us manages to walk smack into a very large fencing post.

Queue a booming voice, doing a very passable impression of the commentator Kenneth Wolstenholme, from amongst the Reading fans ‘and Bournemouth hit the post again.........’

[Royal With Cheese]

Come on Reading, join in.

The best thing about that Halifax V Reading game in the pouring rain was those white plastic patio chairs - the leg of one of them slowly, almost imperceptibly, sunk into the mud, unbeknown to the occupant of the chair. Everyone behind him could see what was going to happen, until eventually it got to (literally!) the tipping point and he was dumped backwards into the mud.

Yep, Football in the Community Officer

When Burnley missed a chance at 1-0 up on Monday, Father Christmas behind me shouted "You couldn't score in a brothel" and followed that up by telling East Stand lino that he was "worse than the post".



Right, okay.
