(And it all stems from the ridiculous stadium arrangement that sees noisy home fans given a corner of the ground whilst the away lot get to be behind the goal)

The most likely explanation i can think of for not selling 13 was mentioned earlier in the thread. The kind of people buying tickets this late will be occasional visitors, perhaps bringing kids, and the club might not want them to have a bad experience caught in the crossfire of 'amusing banter'...

I thought I spotted a single available seat in Block 32, but it turned out to be a speck of gravy on my monitor.

It's only about three weeks ago that there was a serious thread discussing whether we needed a whole new team. In the 94th minute on Wednesday we were no-hopers, a few days later and we're planning trips to the Etihad. Some proper mood swings on this forum.

Seem to remember the team's disastrous collapse had already started by the time he came on, Swansea were in total command of the ball and nothing was going to prevent the inevitable.

Kelly's been able to contribute very little in the last year or more, purely because of injuries. I'm sure I'm not alone in being mystified by the excessive criticism he's had for his rare appearances, as he's never done much wrong when called upon IMO. Even so, I was surprised just how much he...

It's a Reading forum not a Writing forum 😉

Is that your goal celebration Pete?

Some people have said he scored with his cock. But even with VAR it would have been OK, because it wasn't in an unnatural position.

Controlled it with a combination of chest and arm IMO, before prodding it home. Doesn't matter of course. Imagine what we'd be saying if our defence and keeper had allowed that to happen in the 6 yard box from a corner.

Guilty i suspect ;)

Do people expect refs to see everything from every angle, with the benefit of replays and stills? He has a perfect view there, so maybe from his angle what he sees is the Blackburn player’s foot going between Panzo and the ball, and as Panzo arrives a split second later they smash into each...

There was a quicker way to post those scores ;)

Thank you Mr. P, I’m sure OSB58 is up there somewhere very pleased that you’ve highlighted his message to everyone. On his donation page I do love the photo of him steering the boat, such moments are what life is made of.

'We are the boys in blue and white" goes back decades. Shall we tell 'em who we are? Most years there's been white somewhere in the kit, even if it's a detail. Going right back to the 60's the white on the collar and cuffs (although a tiny proportion of the kit) always felt like an important...

So saddened to hear this. He may have been a stranger to me, but a stranger I came to rely upon for his incredible knowledge and his honest information about our club, so it feels like losing a friend. RIP

Changing it to ‘on a roll’ would be a start, but the biggest problem is that almost never when Bidwell is on the ball do I ‘know there’s gonna be a goal’. The tune's fine, I like him as a player, and I hope he smashes one in from 25 yards tomorrow night. But perhaps the lyrics promise a bit too...

This Raff sounds like a bit of a part time supporter. Could he not have rented some nordic skis?

Or maybe he was just pleased to see him

Yeah but he made a couple of mistakes in the first half, which means he's 'not at the level'
