Reading (A) match thread - Jan 13th

[efsb]

First time trying to stream a game 
for some reason the option to watch live isnt on here 
The only option is an audio match pass
Anyone know why?

Because you’re in the UK and Saturday 3pm games are geo-barred.

Tennis balls been thrown on early already.

Radio sjoke said the league have said the game has to be played today.  So the closed door scenario looks like it might happen.  Feel for the Vale fans who have travelled down there.  Not fair on them at all if this happens.

Reading can reimburse them for travel and tickets

They can but they probably won’t.  They can hardly afford to pay their players, are not paying HMRC and office staff are wearing coats and scarves at work because they can’t afford to heat the buildings. Their owner has previous I think with clubs in China and Belgium going bust under his stewardship.

Well they've kicked off

If this does make the full 90, it will be about 8pm

What's the point in this tactic of making teams go bust. Surely it won't make the owner any richer.

Fully support the fans and their reasons why they want to demonstrate - the reading fans have been doing this for several months now and looks like they are upping their demonstrations now.

The FA need to look at the people wanting to take control of clubs and if they have had other clubs and run them into the ground.

Ok this is not another moaner, just a bit odd that shorrock isn’t even on the bench, I thought he was the best of the young uns.

Maybe they are going to rotate him and Lomax so that they get to play a youth game every other week rather than sitting on the bench

Can I change my score prediction to Love -15

[PVFC764]

Already had a goal cancelled out for the Yak.  Commentators said it was not off side.

Come on Vale.

He's doing revision for his mocks

Scored but offside. Lovely ball in for Chislett 

[Conrad]

Yak has another goal disallowed.

[PVFC764]

Jensen W. already showing his touch in midfield.

Come on Vale.

[valiant_593]

Looking sharp in midfield. Weir started well
