We're going to visit the queen

Where fellow sufferers gather to share the pain, longing and unrequited transfer requests that make being a Wanderer what it is...

Wow, that is one hell of a statement, reasons please? Neither of you have answered my question btw which could have a huge impact on the accuracy of my previous statements on towns as well as future ones.
The above post is complete bollox/garbage/nonsense, please point this out to me at any and every occasion possible.

Then again there is Windsor, Henley, Marlow and Maidenhead ... and that whole 'shire' area of Berks. Not too shabby ... and loads of Waitroses and Budgens. Now That's my standard for somewhere posh.

You and me both know though Bobo that your Henley's and your Marlow's don't have the same community spirit as what your Horwich's and Westhoughton's.

Hi guys, daibo, Royals fan here. Actually quite a lot of us are anti-monarchy despite the club nickname.
We've got our RR match presentation up here, as always fullest respect to Wanderers:
http://royalsrendezvous.co.uk/topic/10022077/1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

For travel, eating, drinking, this should tell you about everything you need to know too:
http://royalsrendezvous.co.uk/topic/9220871/1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Also, a friendly Liverpool fan writes this: http://royalsrendezvous.co.uk/topic/10022051/1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


As you will probably know, there is great uncertainty about the club ownership right now. The Russian Anton Zingarevich (and pretty wife Katsia) have seemed to have almost disappeared, and it seems new options are Oman or US ownership. This uncertainty is greatly affecting the team though we feel; and the Winter Transfer Window may well turn out to be a farce we think ... and despite our top half position in the table confidence is not at all high on or off the pitch ...

here's for a good game, any questions, just get back!!

Reading will assess Danny Guthrie after the midfielder picked up a calf injury. Wayne Bridge, Sean Morrison (both knee), Chris Baird (ankle), Mikele Leigertwood (ankle), and Jason Roberts (hip) remain unavailable.

Bolton striker Jermaine Beckford is sidelined with a hamstring injury and will miss the next three weeks. Full-back Marc Tierney (foot) and midfielder Stuart Holden (knee) are out, while Andy Lonergan will keep his place in goal.

MATCH FACTS - Head-to-Head

• Reading have scored only two goals in their last five games in all competitions.

• Reading have not scored more than one goal in a game in all competitions since their 3-2 league win at Nottingham Forest in late November.

• Reading have won only one of their last six games at home. Their 1-0 league win against Charlton on 3 December is their only win at home since October.

Bolton

• Bolton have lost only one of their last six games in all competitions.

• Bolton have scored in each of their last eight games in all competitions, since their 1-0 league defeat at home to Huddersfield early last month.

So their awful attack vs our awful defence. What happens when a pathetically weak force meets a very movable object?

I'm confused TD... that link directs to the youth game last year, but the intro blurb seems to suggest it should be a new article about the upcoming match. :?

I think the software must have picked up a previous title from the archives. I've changed the current title but didn't need to do anything else. Seems okay now and apologies for not noticing. My error (or the software's, not Dan's).

Yeah, cheers Dan, nice scene-setter, although that might be the single worst use of 'ironically' I've ever seen, and there is soooome competition for that award :D.
