They need the premier leagues permission to enter, which reading the statement from them they don’t have so to enter they’d have to break away

Agreed. Hopefully it’ll happen and they’ll all be Banned from competing in any domestic competitions. After the novelty of the first couple of seasons when fans of clubs like arsenal and Chelsea see their teams struggling at the bottom of the league every season losing most weeks it won’t be much fun. Hopefully all European fans will boycott anything to do with it too and leave the Chinese and American audiences to lap the farce up.

Linked with Jacob Murphy at Newcastle don’t know much about him but a winger, seems decent. Anyone watch a lot of Newcastle?

Ignore the cock. Everyone knows when he meant by uncharted territory. 4 FA Cup semi finals 35 years. Hardly regulars are we.

Our midfield would get absolutely murdered if he picked that first team you have

I keep thinking we are due a bit of luck in a big cup game. 84, lucky bounce in the last minute of injury time, 86 Mark Wrights injury, 2018 although a crap performance Austin’s goal disallowed for a nothing Challenge, might have changed the game. Then of course there Is the 2017 final with the goal that never was and losing late. Of course Leicester are huge favorites, a better team, but so were Liverpool in 2017. We never get the roll of the dice when it gets to this stage of a tournament, maybe we’re due it.

Well did not expect that. Great performance from Chelsea.

Surely he won’t get the final...

They’re building up the scare mongering though https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-indian-double-mutation-variant-arrives-in-britain-and-has-hallmarks-of-very-dangerous-virus-12276922

Forster won’t save any so it’ll be hoping they miss the target with probably 3 out of 5

I’m sure we’ve missed almost as many as we’ve scored. What’s Ward Prowse and Ings record? I can remember them both missing a few recently, ward prowse on Monday and Everton away last season, Ings at Bournemouth. Outside of that not anyone I’d fancy to take one, Bertrand maybe, vestergaard and Armstrong probably. Doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence. We do gallant failure well though so a plucky performance to lose on pens can at least have us blaming that

We aren’t good at penalties

im not really but when it's a reoccurring topic on this forum and you've even started a thread about it makes me wonder if there is anything in it. It seems to get under your skin for some reason. No one cares if you used to post as always or not.

I see an Indian variant has arrived now. Panic panic panic!!

It's bizarre that it bothers you so much...🤔

LOL, the transfertavern. Absolute joke of a website, just kids writing stories to get clicks. I think anyone can sign up to be a writer on that page.

Forest Green are our big rivals for the virtue signal trophy. As a vegan only team they provide stiff competition for us with our flying of trannie flags and world class wokeism as a progressive club. We had it with a few of their firm at king cross back in 2017, they had a good go but when one of them got a pork pie wrapped round his canister they all started grizzle gutting about the poor pig and threw themselves in front of an oncoming train, tragic really.

Hey Jonah, a few p1ss takers on here but let me tell you The truth. Reading is a very passionate local derby. Although we don’t play them much any more. Historically Reading were always a small club made up largely of fans who have moved out of London, as they don’t support one club (most Reading fans support Reading and someone else) then it’s difficult to take them seriously Due to our maritime heritages there is a huge rivalry with Sunderland, rumors that this stems back to their jealousy as a boat building city similar to Southampton, But it was us that was chosen to launch the titanic. It wasnt always that way as Sunderland even changed their shirts to red and white stripes Back in 1912 to honour the superior maritime city but more recently there is a bitterness stemming from our north east cousins which has spilt out onto the football terraces. Of course Sunderlands hooligan element are no match for the Dell Elite Force (DEF) but few are! matches between the two major ship building cities are never lacking incident on or off the pitch. Let me tell you Jonah the Southampton DEF are largely regard as the most notorious hooligan gang in Europe happy to assist if you want more information

That’s interesting because when you first started posting on here you played the part of a new poster who didn’t really know much about football as you’re new to the game. If you’re going to invent new characters you need to remember the back story pal

Stick $10 on a Leicester win for an insurance bet pal. That momentum curve is with Leicester now so a win for them looks like safe money.

Maybe it’s not a strop and he wants to drop down a level to get regular first team football. What’s wrong with that? Surely that sort of ambition and drive is to be lauded.

He’s 18, why do you expect him to be?

Indeed. Despite the best man for the job being a black fella, the very definition of equality and what is being demanded it seems like that isn’t enough equality. this says to me We now have to call black people out for not being stereotypical enough. To be progressive we have to be regressive.
