Re: MATCHWATCH : Cardiff City (a)

Hard to see us getting anything from this one. I just hope the fans can control their distemper and show encouragement, rather than booing and negative chanting. That said, I'm going to be senselessly optimistic and say 2-2. Take the lead unexpectedly early on, then back to 2-1 down just before half...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

Looks like a single goal between us and the relegation zone. It's getting tense! I still believe we're turning the corner though. That's a decent point.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

I'm still banking on Exeter to have all the chances and us to nick it 1-2 in the last second.

Is that seriously 6 in 6 for Marriott? That's a little obscene.

Re: Hunt out.

If there is going to be a change, I actually think Steve Bruce could be an option. Certainly don't expect Ainsworth despite the fact the media would obviously install him as favourite for the position if it was available. Think my favourite idea though would be Charlie's dad with maybe Ritchie movi...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (a)

We've got a fragile run of avoiding defeat now, I just hope we can keep that run going and get some confidence and belief. I'm predicting us to concede early but then come back early in the second half. Potentially even grab a last second winner. I'm going 1-2 win for us.

Re: Hunt out.

I don't think RC would sack a manager. He seems to be positioning the club so that we can monetise our non-footballing assets to maintain a higher level of income. I think he's viewing the club purely as a financial asset, not a footballing asset. He's here to make the club profitable on its own (st...

Re: Hunt out.

Thing is, whilst we haven't 'turned a corner' in terms of performance, we are starting to grind out results. If we can just keep clinging on, confidence will come and I would expect that to drive better performances and I can steadily see us improving.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Mansfield Town (h)

We did actually create a couple of chances today, which does show some improvement. It's disappointing that we didn't convert many, but we probably created more opportunities than I've seen is create in any other game this season. It's frustrating how slow we attack though. Mansfield looked threaten...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Mansfield Town (h)

I really hope for a decent win. I recon a third good result in a row, unbeaten in three, would be really positive for confidence and could really start a good run.

Re: What was the last player that you were gutted that left/sold

I was actually quite gutted that Josh Laurent left us, i felt he was a really strong player and we stood a reasonable chance of keeping him. The same with Tom Ince and Adrian Marriappa too. Obviously gutted that we lost Olise and Richards, but they were right at the very start of their careers and h...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

Royal_jimmy Hunt has turned this team into one with such a soft underbelly. We were so much more solid last season, now we look like we'll concede under every attack.


To be fair, we did lose two championship-quality centre backs over the summer.

Re: Players at Reading who you had completely forgotten about

And lets not forget Bongani Khumalo and Joao Virginia. I also keep forgetting we took Glen Murray on loan as well.

Who was they guy who had the nickname "The Beast" who came on as a substitute in his first game (might have been the first game of the season?) and scored a thunderbolt?

Re: MATCHWATCH : Stockport County (a)

Hard to see anything but a resounding defeat here. Stockport beat us last year whilst barely breaking a canter and we rarely seem to do well if we travel further away than any London club. Its a badly timed game, because i feel like Hunt might be on the verge of turning things around our fragile sta...

Re: Players at Reading who you had completely forgotten about

Whilst its not strictly true that I had forgotten about him, i do wonder how many people would remember Eric Obinna Chukwunyelu. I think he once hit the bar with a header, away at Southampton in 05/06? John Halls was a strange one. Quality player, but he was never going to get in ahead of Murty that...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (h)

I've got a horrible feeling about this one. I can see us conceding an early goal but still manage to put in a good performance. Then equalising shortly after half time before conceding a last minute goal. I'm just hoping for an improved performance, after our recent run. But it's hard to imagine tha...

Re: Hunt out.

After reading this, and listening to BBC Radio Berkshire, it seems like the arguments being made (with my careless and pithy responses to both sides of the debate): We need a change to stop the defeats and below-par performances: I'm not convinced. Just changing because it's not working now, does no...

Re: Hunt out.

I'm fully on board with Hunt, I think he's doing and will continue to do well here. We have had to replace most of the team, this window. And with players out of contact and the returning loan players, we'll probably have to do the same next year too. Over achieving last season has massively increa...
