To be fair nobody confirmed the touchline ban which someone definitely should have done. It wasnt like he got sent off and was expecting it, it was a 3rd yellow

Surely you know if you have had three cards and therefore should be banned, why do you need someone to tell you that?

Does a manager really take much notice of cards with everything else they have going on, especially this guy. I have to admit I didnt know they get banned after 3 yellows, although im not a manager tbf

This L1 forum is shit! No banter!

Just a bunch of depressed Vale and Exeter fans here. Why are there no Derby, Reading and Wigan fans etc?? Where did all the smug Lincoln fans go from a couple of years back?

There's more fans from L2 clubs below than there is on this shit miserable forum.

Don’t worry. You can rejoin it in may.

It wasn't as quiet last season as you had the FGR lads, couple of MKD and Morecambe and the three who went up had some decent contributers, just the three that came down have hardly any posters at all (think there is one Blackpool one occassionally), surprised there isnt really any regular Derby fans for instance on here mind.

Does seem to be the case the same few clubs like Vale, Cambridge, Bolton, Carlisle, Lincoln and Pompey have the majority of the posters.

Not sure how quiet it was before Vale, Exeter, FGR and Rovers came up as we were all well represented mind!

It’s more a sign of the times - people do not use messageboards as much. We had 3 burton fans when I joined - terraceman57 and earwig plus one other I can’t recall.
People prefer Facebook groups for some reason, which are full of bell ends, wind up merchants and teenagers.

Not sure if its just us, but Alex Robertson has torn his hamstring and is out until next season. Thats now 7 long term injuries to first team players this season. Anyone else close to that? Lowery, Scully, Poole, Anjorin, Robertson, Swanson, Ogilvie

 

[HutchECFC]

So we’ve been fined by the FA for naming Jack Fitzwater on the bench, despite not naming him in our squad list prior to the Lincoln game back in September.

I thought Scully was back? He injuried again?

 

[dwightyorke]

There another forum similar to this where a derby fan, reading fan and a couple of Peterborough fans seem to be the only ones that post on it. Some of you lot maybe members on both message boards.

He's just come back. But still to have all those long term Is mental. Not discounting pack and Yengi all who had 6 plus weeks out injured and Bishop 4 weeks out aswell.

I know the one. And the derby fan posted on here for a while. He is an absolute walloper.

In term of injuries full stop, we had 9 first teamers out on NYD against Blackpool with another one going off during the game.

Long term injuries, we're at 3 - Montsma (ACL) who hasn't played for a year and this is the third ACL he's had (2nd with us), then our two senior strikers in House and Walker who we've been without since end of August/beginning of September. Walker is probably out for the season and House due back in a couple of months but by that time, you wonder whether it's even worth risking him this season.

Hackett has just returned from 2.5 months out.

You do wonder how many of those players with knocks and niggles could play if they really needed to.

One player of theirs I would like in our team is Femi Azeez who's seemed a bit of a handful for defences.

 

[Bartonyellow]

We have a chance of beating them now if they are on the rustler burgers.

Seems talk that their fans may try and get our game severely disrupted or abandoned.

As we’ve seen much in the past it’s the fans and local stakeholders that really suffer. What does the EFL/HMRC meeting entail I wonder?

I wish they'd abandoned our game...

Still Azeez and Knibbs might be on the market, happy days .

I think a proper points deduction is what they deserve this time, say 15 points at least.

 

[Si Robin]

Unfortunately, and I understand the sentiment, that's only really going to hurt the fans who - to their credit - have been protesting all season about the state the club is in. What point is a points deduction when the club might not even exist in a couple of months?

It's hard to see where Reading go from here though. They've been shit on from a great height and I'm not aware of anyone looking to get them out of the mess they're in.

Because if they get points deducted then we have a better chance of staying up and let's face it they are a complete basket case who deserve to be in the bottom tier.

If as the fans document suggests they are going to flog all their saleable assets then they will likely end up there without any further deductions.
