A right Royal piss up! - Reading (H) 02/04/16

I think this has been our half time talk by our previous managers for years as it makes no difference to the result

How the hell do you get a video input??? Oh I give up too old for new tricks!

Anything but a classy win today and there's a very real chance that we may not make the playoffs at all this season and will have to settle for a mid table finish.

So for that reason alone I'm going to have to say 2-1 to the Wanderers.

[TANGODANCER]

Weather not promising at all. Went to take the dog out this morning and he ran under the table and hid. Not quite your Burnden mudbath, but might be a touch skiddable. Agree with Hoss and don't think we'll get promoted this time. We'll probably have to settle for the win and the points. Three goals should be enough I reckon, but if they score first we might need four..

How the hell do you get a video input??? Oh I give up too old for new tricks!

Use the 'youtube' brackets instead of the 'url' ones - and just use the ugly last bit of the URL.

So for https://youtu.be/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;ylftUmF-GSw you'd just use ylftUmF-GSw
or for the longer style like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;ylftUmF-GSw you use everything after the "v=".

Thanks for the lesson will try this next time. .maybe an old dog can learn new tricks?

Oh. Don't know Maher. Who's on the Bench? The omission of Feeney seems to be making a difference even on paper. Hope I'm wrong.

Edit: Just seen the bench.

[Little Green Man]

New sponsor, new lineup, same old story?

Maher is a full-back who was loaned out to Blackpool last season

Bugger, PT. Thought we'd kicked off at two, for a moment, there...

Cheers. I'd have been tempted to prefer Wilson there, but I'll bow to greater knowlege. Have we anybody apart from Feeney and Mark Davies ( Silva's injured) who can actually beat a man?

I just hope our defence is in form then....

nah - it's just in that ace part of saturday when we are not losing and have not lost... yet... the world seems so shiny and new and full of hope...

[TANGODANCER]

Anthony Axford gets an early "Good for wood" airing on Tower (along with a whole host of mind-numbing ads). Our commentator thinks we can see an improvement from the lads today. Hope he's right. Breathing on the spot done and five to go so...COME ON YOU WHITES....

[TANGODANCER]

3.2.1..away we go.....( We can "interact" with Twiiter...apparently if we wish). Reading in a "Ribena" coloured strip and pay an early visit and....we clear. Mic men dash straight in with a chat about this and that and maybe we'll get around to the game shortly. Here they come, Derik clears for a throw. Talk of a "friendly pace" to the game and then they visit again. We get Dobbie in the way and....a quick tale of Morecame and a reminice about Neil Lennon. As a commentary team these two mic men are a good chat show; not much of a commentary, but a good chat show.

[TANGODANCER]

Bit of action and then we get a free kick for offside. Mention of a "morgue-like" atmosphere at the Macron and now Amost wooshes one forth. We move forth and.....Clough, Moxey, Pratley and...cleared for a throw. Dobbie goes, and gets decked in slow motion. No cigar. Chat about things then Al Habsi sets it off again. Throw then, now, and a bit of crystal ball doom about our demise then.....Pratley gives it away before we get a throw. You can imagine that not very much is happening right now.....Free kick them and....Derik tries a clear before some head tennis and away they come again. Vidra gettin g mention before Pratley part clears. Back they come and....Williams sends a "horrible" effort goalwards to no avail.
