  1. I’m surprised the club thought the invasion would come from the other end of the stadium in view of the fact that all the tennis balls came on from the 1871 section in the first minute. That gave them 15 minutes to move the pre match kick about netting from behind the goal to in front of that area to make an invasion more difficult The simple fact is Reading totally underestimated what the protest would be like and consequently made no provision at all to prevent it. When the bulk of the fans were on the pitch there were no stewards in front of that area yet there were still people coming on to the pitch. There were stewards guarding the tunnel and a very thin like of stewards in front or the Vale fans!! I have all this on video. I’m afraid Reading we’re seriously culpable for the pathetic organisation of this event.
  2. We were reportedly after Smith in the summer. I assume he went there for the money. Why were they paying big wages when they had no money to pay them??
  3. This whole affair is a clear admission by the EFL that they made a huge cock up in allowing Dan Yongge to buy Reading and are now bending over backwards to ingratiate themselves with Reading fans as a consequence. Stinks.
  4. No replay, a point each and some proper acknowledgement that Reading FC did bugger all to prevent it happening.
  5. Thing was, that was his first game back after serving a 3 Game suspension for another red card!!
  6. I’ve written to the EFL and asked them where is the justice for Vale fans in this scandalous outcome. Don’t expect a response.
  7. Agreed. This is what the EFL rules say: 6.4 In the event that the EFL holds the Match ‘behind closed doors’ or the postponed or abandoned Match is: (i) not re-arranged; or (ii) the Ticket holder is unable to attend the rearranged Match, the Ticket holder will be entitled to a refund of the face value of the Ticket (including any booking fee or related transaction charge and any postage costs). The procedure for obtaining such a refund shall be announced by the EFL and/or the applicable Club(s). So why did there need to be any negotiations about refunds? And why do ALL Vale fans have to faff about getting a refund and buying again if they want to go yet eh home fans can just use their original ticket. " Keep your tickets for new Port Vale date – your ticket will automatically be valid for the rescheduled fixture of 20th February. No action is required if you wish to take this option.
  8. We should have invaded the pitch at half time against Boro so we could start again.
  9. Vale fans should be given free tickets for this replayed game. The EFL has completely ignored the effect the abandonment had on Vale supporters, especially their travel costs. Blackpool and Huddersfield were given a point each after that abandonment. Reading must have friends in high places.
  10. So Reading get no immediate points deduction, no fine so no punishment. We, meanwhile, have to play the game without the large away following which was supporting us in the first match. But don't worry, we can have a refund of our ticket! Looks like everyone will have to get a refund and buy again - this of course, is to allow Reading not to sell the upper tier to us. This whole decision stinks and is as unfair as can be to the Vale fans who did nowt wrong.
  11. I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of times away tickets have been released at 6pm on a Monday.
  12. Choose an area it says except there aren't any!
  13. Annoys me as well Doc. When they play Newcastle they get referred to as "United" yet Newcastle were United in 1892 while Manchester Reds were still Newton Heath!
  14. You’d need an extra changing room - it’s a lady lion.
  15. Couldn’t see it on their forum when I looked - just a suggestion that Uche was the fall back if they didn’t get Ladapo.
  16. Where is the evidence that Uche failed the medical???
