[Archived] Rovers V Reading

[Dunnfc]

McCleary, Beerens & Samuels pace are going to have a field day.

2-1 Reading.

[AllRoverAsia]

Wes Brown makes his first team debut as Rovers make two changes from midweek. Hope Akpan in for the injured Corry Evans. https://t.co/zjgwIkRFv4

Thank you for posting the team lineup so quickly most weeks. Its usually the first I know.

[Salgado Is Still A Hero]

Brown 40/1 first goal scorer on Skybet, worth a cheeky quid.

Only 28/1 on Bet365 but why not?

Alan Irvine at today game. Just walk straight past me outside Jack Walker stand

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but we'd have been better off giving the job to him. Is he still with Norwich i wonder ?

I agree. I did say we should have give it him before it was reported he didnt want it.

Yes still at Norwich

[West Yorks Rover]

Reading 4th in the table, goal difference of zero, F 27 A 27.

Only in the championship eh !

[tomphil]

Must be scouting then.

[AllRoverAsia]

Assistant Manager at Norwich I think. on a scouting mission? Reading must have some good players.

[Husky]

I've got a 'pseudo date' at 3.30GMT, so needless to say my attention will be on another type of day game so won't be listening to this one.

We should be good enough for a point at home 1-1.

Have fun guys. Look forward to Reading (hoho) through all 2 pages of the game thread later.

COYB!

Dear Rovers,

Stop showing @#/? pre-match montages of how great our recent history has been when your only intention now is to watch us rot at the behest of your paymasters. You are just taking the @#/? out of long suffering fans.

Regards.

It literally made me feel sick watching that pre-game and at half time. It is a reminder of the destruction wrought on Rovers for the benefit of spivs and betting syndicates. We have been done over.

[West Yorks Rover]

Cardiff 1-0 up 3mins.

Wigan 0-1 down.

[Mike Graham]

Eh? Bright sunshine outside now and I've been up since 9 and not seen a hint of any fog. And don't bother coming on after the game with your usual post match offering telling us what you 've been doing and how you didn't miss the match or how the "real" gate was 1.5k. etc. I'm not interested that you're not interested! Lol.

C'mon Rovers. It's my birthday today so 3 points required as a little extra bonus please! Besides which we desperately need 3 points to keep on the coat tails of the pack.

It cleared about 11am so had a lively and lovely walk up Billinge Hill, Alum Scar and Salmesbury Bottoms. I could see the Ewood, Blackpool and Dumpdale floodlights from the Wainwright Memorial

The gate today was 7,650.

I hope you get your Birthday 3 points.

Absolutely right Rev. I'm sick of the smug "Aren't I smart for not going and watching the crap" posts from so called supporters.

By the way, happy birthday and let's have a good win!

I agree. I don't like smarty pants. Mind you.........

It is goals that count.

I am sure our Owen has got our stars fired up.

Shame he can't do the same for our players.

[West Yorks Rover]

Akpan blazes high and wide over the bar.

Not like him.

[Stuart]

Comedy moment of the season.

Reading score

Zero reaction from Ewood regulars

5 second delay

Reading fans all cheer in unison

Was that a glitch in the matrix? Or are they watching via a dodgy stream?

[West Yorks Rover]

0-1 oh eck !
