Reading is not as mad as it sounds - they come down, GP takes no blame for that, then gets a premiership squad boosted by new additions he wants from the TV and chairman's money and he has, on paper, a great chance of getting Reading up at first chance looking good doing it.....at the present...

He's good but not great and in my eyes too limited to be able to get us out of this division. if we went up and played as we are now, a poor version of Swansea, we'd be relegated by Xmas.

I had W last season and don't remember sitting once - neither did the 2 rows in front - can't remember if was back 4 or 5 but it definitely was the on border so hopefully stewards not be throwing out from there this or next season

we will create chances early on, if we take them and get ahead so settle the players nerves, I can see 2-1 to us - that said, if we do a blackburn and outplay them off the park but don't score first, I can, pains me as it does, see them nicking a goal and then holding on - we better hope Zaha...

Good point, maths not my strongest on Bristol but gist was that the return generally from these last 2 games which we really ought to be winning if we want to maintain any serious momentum, is just not good enough. We may well still be there or thereabouts but this is the wrong time to be...

I don't know why some posters got so irate when this issue is raised - simple reality is for 2 years we have not had a striker good enough or clinical enough to get the 20+ a season and be the difference between mid-upper table and playoff/promotion candidates. Mentioning Murray inflames the...

whoever said standing on a plug is 100% spot on - did it in the dark, the bloody thing pierced the skin quite deeply on the bottom of my foot.........there was 1 second where my brain didn't register pain and but thought 'that's not good' followed by levels of pain I have never had before or...

he's gone, that's end of it - but answering question, his record this year says yes he is, nearly 30 in any league merits respect but whether he could do it 2 seasons in a row, that's up for debate.

same as I thought when raising my initial post, Gus definitely will be on Jenkins radar, especially as we are now playing better and at a higher tempo. Laudrup looks a decent guy, I can see him never publicly touting for another job as he has class and encouraging the Swans best players to sign...

Guessing the Times have had a tip-off from someone in the know - decision announced in few weeks time but the grounds chosen are the ones expected - rugby wise their reporting normally pretty accurate too (mind you Steven Jones must be the most anti-English reporter going!) - 3 group games...

is this not the whole point of the dispute - the club 'implied' no doubt to encourage sales and many bought tickets on this basis - myself included, along with 3 friends - now the club have changed their stance it comes down to either us not renewing as we feel we've been misled or renewing but...

Why don't people actually test out the resolve of the owners/PB on this issue, rather than come on here and rant.... at a home game (probably not Palace as that will be chaos no doubt) people could always go up and say to a Senior steward on arrival that they intend to stand all game and that...

my usual seat from day Amex opened is in row W (now X) in NS so I've stood every game in North I've been to, but I also have a SW corporate for business so can see the pros and cons both ways - I remember the presentation for NS where back 4-5 standing was clearly mentioned as...

fantastic news, to be honest the facilities at the Amex far superior to St Mary's and it is a great stadium for viewing rugby - a massive coup for the club to win this I think.

an oriental herbalist once told me that 3am is when the body waking up and the liver is processing alchohol and it is that process which wakes you up - probably tosh and didn't stop me drinking but in fairness if I have been out for a beer or ten, I do seem to wake automatically at 3am!....

sounds cold, but first and only consideration must be what do I have do to save and protect my business and interests - ultimately your business allows you to have an income to keep a roof over your head, pay bills and if it does well, then employ others to help build it and have a worthwhile...

yes, after 8 years had to do it and it was horrible. There is no nice way to do, especially if the reason is a money one, rather than bad behaviour, so best can do is do it as well as you can and explain the reasons and hopefully they will understand. I spent weeks worrying about raising and...

Gus would absolutely jump at it - There is no loyalty at all these days from boot room to boardroom, money talks and whilst nice to think some people still like Matt Le Tiss, they just don't exist anymore in football - RDM took the job when unsuited and it showed with that squad guaranteed a...

as much as I don't like Rafa that much, well said him - hardly a coincidence that he fires off a day or after an alleged training ground row with a big named player (not going to guess but pretty sure we all know who this would have been with the 'this team won the CL) - Rafa's right, until a...

to be honest Dick's bar could be called anything, it is a pretty small soul less bar and I am sure quite a few go in to 'see what the fuss is' and never go in again realising it is nothing special - now if it was a massive home fans only type pub bar, the type you see near most grounds where...
