    How TINPOT were Reading?

    Think he's pretty well liked in Reading which is all the more telling given that he's fundamentally a bit of an odd weirdo.

    How TINPOT were Reading?

    ? Don't think I've slagged you off old chap. Have a lot of respect for the Albion.

    How TINPOT were Reading?

    Yes. This is my point. Edit: missed your bollocks about an owner with history. JM was put in a children's home in Reading as a child. He then strikes gold and reinvests shitload of money in the town, including buying the club that he supported when he had seemingly no prospects.

    How TINPOT were Reading?

    Yeah, quite a few. Like all stadia there are loud bits and quiet bits. On balance I'd say your North stand makes more noise than our East stand but frankly it's fairly marginal and largely dependent on what the situation is on the pitch.

    We need better fans

    I thought the home fans were good and loud today. Maybe you need to start some better chants?

    How TINPOT were Reading?

    Lovely stuff. I'll give you the town comment. The rest is no less true of Brighton than Reading. Muppet.

    Yet another plea for restaurant advice

    Ginger Pig or Ginger Fox, depending on how far you want to travel. Otherwise the Townhouse on St James's Street is quite smart and good food.

    Well would you

    Given that she's anything, yeah.

    Reading

    Obita, an academy lad who normally plays LW, has been doing a surprisingly good job at LB. One of the few positives from this season actually. I'd expect him to be very good indeed once he's had some more experience there. One to watch.

    Reading

    Was at the match yesterday. Mental. Adkins/nobody seemed to have any idea how to change tactics to play against 10 then 9 then 8 men. We just crossed ball after ball onto the heads of their massive back 4 who were lined up on the edge of the 6 yard box. Yeovil should have been down to 7 after a...

    What famous celebrities have you seen in the real world?

    Think he wrote about doing a driver awareness course on his latest (excellent) album actually, along with other awareness courses. The man is indeed very cool, and I think more so the more he ages, weirdly. Hope you got your daughter into Priory.

    What famous celebrities have you seen in the real world?

    Nick Cave in the queue in front of me at the taxi rank in Brighton Station.

    Another baby killed by dog tragedy-why do people play Russian roulette with their kids?

    In which case the correct charge is indeed involuntary manslaughter. Like as if they'd left a loaded gun in the nursery which through a freak accident had gone off and killed the kid. Agree any punishment a court might hand down will be superfluous though. You don't ever properly recover...

    Reading 1-0 up

    It was pretty special. Personally I'm always glad to see QPR lose given the ridiculous megabucks they throw away. And Harry just gives me the creeps. Reading had 5 academy players on the pitch yesterday and they looked the better team.

    Millwall Away.

    Took my 4 yr old lad to the new den to watch Millwall v Reading last month. Absolutely no problems at all. You have a nice armoured walkway through inaccessible wasteland that takes you the 400yd from South Bermondsey to the away section of the ground. There are a couple of hopscotch grids...

    O/T - suggestions for good dentist in Haywards Heath

    Cuckfield Dental Practice is a good ethical practice. Heathcote House in HH also good.

    Men's Down Hill Kitzbühel

    Just got back from Kitz last weekend. They had 2 helicopters dumping snow on the bottom section of the Streife from dawn til dusk every day and it was looking very shabby indeed despite this. Really pleased to see it went ahead, brilliant race. The Londoner will have been mental last night!
