You’ll like see GT back in the dugout before you see Suarez in a Watford shirt. Hob Knobs? Madejski an ‘old style’ stadium?!
I'd have expected to see some organisation, desire and fight. All lacking along with the quality. Was not a good day. Think it was also the same day as the Thailand Tsunami?
Luton was the crapist forum I have seen since the invention of HTML. The reading one however seems like it is frequented by jolly nice people (only read a few posts) , nice positive messages about the opposition and no sign of two arguing factions throwing insults at each other
Does that odious terd superhorns still post on the oppos forum before a match wishing them luck for the season? Really boils my piss for some reason.
ABsolutely gutted that this fixture is being played behind closed doors. It's the one I've missed the most since we've been out of the champo. We could have met up with our opposite numbers to trade some kind words, tea from thermal flasks and quinoa and avocado salad. #prawnsandwichbrigade
I remember the first time I went to Elm Park, standing next a lunatic who was absolutely adamant that Steve Butler was better than Paul Furlong, because he chased lost causes. Apart from the obvious fact that Furlong was many times better anyway, if it's genuinely a lost cause, then you're just stupid.
Funny you should say chasing lost causes is stupid, because one of the best players this club has ever had used to get stick from many of our fans for doing just that, not chasing lost causes............ One Nigel Callaghan And I still say Cally was better than Barnes, because he was equally as skilful as Barnes, but far more consistent at showing it.
And could either shoot or cross with no apparent backlift that would give the defence a clue what he was planning. Pity he was a bit troubled..
Yep. Genuinely two-footed and a fantastic crosser of the ball. Possessor of a great shot with either foot. The best English winger never to have played for the England full team. Yes, he was a bit of a wayward character, but not in the Gazza class. I remember him giving 60-cap England international Kenny Sansome a torrid time when we played Arsenal.
https://www.watfordfc.com/news/team-news-sarr-troost-ekong-available-for-reading “Sarr is available to play, yes. For Troost-Ekong, it’s not too soon, he is available to play, and he is one of the options for me to play on Saturday,” confirmed Ivi*. “Troy did first practise today with us, he had some problem in the last three days, and he worked alone with the medical team. We will see tomorrow, but I don’t believe he will be available for the game.” “We have some problems with some of the players who played the last game, who haven’t worked with us from the beginning of the week,” he said. “Some of them have started to work today and yesterday. We will follow the situation until tomorrow to decide who will be available to give maximum 100 per cent, who will be in the squad and who will not be in the squad. “I want to keep this information for us, these are internal things and we don’t want to give this away.” “I think that Gray will be good and join us, he’s worked with us from the first day and was unlucky with an injury in the friendly game,” said Ivi*. “The medical staff will decide when Andre will be able to work 100 per cent with us. I hope he will join us during the international break, maybe not in the first week but I hope in the second week, before the game against Derby. If he will be available or not for this week, I’m not sure, but for me it’s important for him to come back and work with the team. “We are waiting for Hughes to come back now in this international break, to take part in practice with the team and slowly improve his physical shape. He’s an option that will be very good for me, when he reaches the level he has been at before his injury.”
Did Troy bruise his chest after he failed to stop in time against that dude dressed as an Oompa Loompa?
I just hope we can put out a good side for the majority of games. It's important to keep a confident and winning team together as much as possible.
"“We have some problems with some of the players who played the last game, who haven’t worked with us from the beginning of the week,” he said." Bit concerning.
I imagine Chalobah is one of those players. Garner and Pedro took a couple of hits but were training all week. Just hope it isn't Ngakia!
not that I want Ngakia out in teh slightest, but I think Kiko would be far better in a back 5 and a level lower.
https://hobnob.royals.org/forum/ They could have had Riquelme playing for them as well. No not that one. With their injury list we should be looking to take full advantage. Granted they will have more confidence and Paunovic is also a good manager but that should be the aim just before the international break. ------------------------------------Foster------------------------------------------------- -------------Kabasele-----------Cathcart----------Troost-Ekong--------------------- Ngakia--------------------------------------------------------------------------Sema--- ----------------------------Wilmot-------Garner---------------------------------------- ------------------------------------Cleverly---------------------------------------------- ---------------Sarr-------------------Pedro---------------------------------------------
Riquelme's gone to Bournemouth. https://www.getreading.co.uk/sport/...iquelme-bournemouth-transfer-reading-19032827
Which players are part of the 'other' group then? Those that don't want to be part of the squad. So far Ivic has confirmed Welbeck, Capoue and Deulofeu? Is that it? Or am I missing someone?
Half of that awful half arsed team that went to Newport too I expect. Did themselves absolutely no favours of getting anywhere close to the first team.
