    Missing : Bright

    He’s never going to play for us is he?

    Reading manager and the 8 minutes

    Yeah, good point. That thought crossed my mind too. It’s not the first time that’s happened, and it’s not a difficult rule to remember (or enforce), so maybe the advice changed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Reading manager and the 8 minutes

    Yeah but adding time on isn’t what the rules say they should do. I genuinely don’t understand why they don’t enforce it. It’s not a hard rule to remember and it’s not like the entire stadium wasn’t telling him! (Pardon the multiple negatives!). It worked out ok for us in the end, but let’s face...

    Reading manager and the 8 minutes

    Wound me right up that did. What happened to the rule that they had to go off the nearest point anyway? Ref certainly wasn’t enforcing that one. Nobhead!

    My story

    Fair play mate. My lad is a brummy sky blue (thanks to his old man), so in my book family or geography are both valid reasons. In fact any reason is valid to support us because as others have mentioned, there’s very little in the way of glory to hunt (last few years excepted).

    I think it was partly because of a handball in midfield (can’t remember who it was, but looked like it hit his hand, maybe Fadz?) right in front of their dugout. The ref was the other side of the incident and the linesman may as well not have been there anyway. I got the impression that it was...

    Have the rules changed? Stewards don’t seem to be doing anything…

    Out of curiosity, have the rules on alcohol in stands changed? Two separate groups drinking pints in my block?

    Bit worried about that line up…

    Print at home tickets

    Some have claimed they used just their phone, I’ve always printed them. Not sure. Hope that helps. :LOL:

    Think both teams have a mistake at the back in them, so I’m going 1-1 O’Hare.

    2-2 O’Hare and Györkeres Same here. I mean it was the Simod cup FFS, but it felt like we were going back to Wembley. Think it was the first time I’d seen us lose on penalties which made it feel worse somehow.

    Racist remark towards a coventry player

    Out of curiosity, do we have any disabled people on this forum? I am. The definition of disabled is quite broad, and I have mobility issues (not age ‘appropriate’ but caused my spine issues), so am not “spastic” by the actual definition of the word. But it’s an insult that gets thrown at all...

    Racist remark towards a coventry player

    From attending football coaching with my son for the last ~8 years, I would estimate that there are at least 30% south Asian kids on those courses. It puzzles me how that hasn’t (yet?) translated into representation within the professional game. I’d guess that in 5-10 years there will be more as...

    Championship 21/22

    They’ve signed 3 players, Zinckernagel, Horvath and Osei-Tutu. Their fans are turning on the players but mate of mine was saying it’s the way Hughton plays that’s (part of) the problem. Very negative and they never look like scoring or seem set up to score.

    I can’t believe people actually do that. Fucking idiots.

    Will keep an eye on them this season. They did remind me of us last year as Herts was saying above. Not had the best start, bet they don’t want to play a CCFC at home again this season…
