Tonight (reservefootballcentric)

Judge_B [Edit] [Delete] 43 replies 13:39, 21 March '07

No-one ever gives a fuck what anyone else is up to, ever. That much we know.

I, tonight, am going to see Reading reserves v Fulham reserves at the MFI stadium among the M4. I've never seen a reserve match before, I will be cheering on Fulham like a lifelong fan.

If you are thinking of responding to this by telling everyone what you are up to tonight, don't bother because no-one cares.

Reserve football, eh?

  • I've seen a couple of reserve games

    I loved them. One was Gresley Rovers v Rushall Olympic, and I was one of three paying customers. not a highlight of my life.

  • I am going to start going to Arsenal reserve games

    as they are at Barnet and its free to get in.

  • Our reserve team

    is basically an under 19 team. But you do get to see FRAN MAREIDA! Oh yes.

  • Claus Jensen

    and Clint Dempsey should be in the Fulham squad, according to my Fulham-devoted mate. I couldn't give a fuck who is in the Reading squad, as by definition anyone in the squad I hate with a passion

    • Reading

      is like Swindon, only nearer London.

      My hatred of Reading FC is a confusing beast, but rest assured they are my my second most hated team in the Premiership and possibly the country.

      I'd say what a great place Newbury is in retort, but I'm not sure I can

      • Don't

        go flexing your cinema-muscles at me! We do have a bowling alley down the road in our slightly-backwards cousin of a relative Thatcham, though. How much bowling can be done in Reading, eh? None*, that's how much!





        *There aren't any bowling alleys in Reading, are there? I can't think of any

        Judge_B @elbam | 21 Mar '07, 14:02 | X
        • There's one

          but it's not central, I can't remember what it's called, by the old 'Utopia' nightclub. (haha)
          It's very, very, creepy, kinda like the bowling equivalent of a haunted fairground from scooby doo.

          TheSoundofBastards @Judge_B | 21 Mar '07, 14:04 | X
          • Yeah,

            there is as well. Fuck it.

            Utopia *snigger*

              Utopia used to send people loads of free tickets on their 18th birthday. Did anyone go... did they bollox...

      • My Traineeship Supervisor's

        son plays in goal for Fulham Reserves.

        • Who

          is your traineeship supervisor's son, then? I'll give him a shout out, and I can only imagine with the number of people that will be in the crowd tonight he'll hear me loud and clear...

          • It was a doubled barrelled surname

            something 'Meade'. He's pretty young, under 18 I think?

              Raphael Meade?

              • Raphael Meade

                was an arsenal trainee. He was considered the next big thing for a month in 1986.

      • Pembrokeshire Reserve Division 2 Cup Semi Finals

        I had to stand in as linesman as I was the only person there. I had a can of lager as a flag :(

      • If I lived nearer

        I'd go to Arsenal reserve/youth games. The quality is pretty much as good as a League One game and it's cheap

        dove_from_above | 21 Mar '07, 13:55 | X
        • Why

          not go somewhere like Leyton Orient or Brentford? That is actual League One football and it's cheap

          • ^

            How I get vexed that more people don't think like this.

              • The two best

                games I've seen this season were Forest v Scunthorpe and Yeovil v Huddersfield in League 1 on Sky. And I can't wait to go to Peterborough v Hereford in a few weeks time. Lower League football >>> Reserve team football.

                • I'll watch any game

                  going, just because it's football. There's usually one or other side I want to win.

                  hendonturnstile26 @Jack_El_Biscuit | 21 Mar '07, 14:21 | X
                  • Cheap?

                    It's £17.50 to get into Brentford! That's a lot of money for a team who will probably be in league two next season.

                    mixmaster_a @Judge_B | 21 Mar '07, 14:27 | X
                    • Ouch!

                      I only paid a couple of quid more to see Reading last season. It's gone up now though. :-(

                      TheSoundofBastards @mixmaster_a | 21 Mar '07, 15:01 | X
                  • Because I don't support Leyton Orient or Brentford

                    I go to Colchester games reasonably regularly, which is good as they actually get the ball down and play. My local team is Southend, but I don't support them so I have no interest in paying to go and watch them

                    And yes, I'm an hour late replying to this

                    who within a season will be trying to get a game at Avely or Cheshunt.

                  • I

                    should have read this post last night, really. Still, not bad for £3 especially with the players that Fulham had out, almost full strength.

                    Didn't think Greg Halford got into the game at all, although you could tell it was a reserve game as none of those on the edge of the first team for either side really got going

                    • Now cease...

                      your bad words about Reading!

                      tom_from_sparks @Judge_B | 22 Mar '07, 15:36 | X
                    • I still haven't seen Halford

                      play. I've heard mixed things so far, he's still pretty young though.

                      TheSoundofBastards @Judge_B | 22 Mar '07, 15:36 | X
                      • He's a good player

                        Definitely Premiership quality. Still not sure what he's strongest position is, although it looks like he'll be used as a right back by Coppell

                        dove_from_above @TheSoundofBastards | 22 Mar '07, 15:38 | X
                        • He

                          seemed to be playing a central to right midfield position last night

                          Judge_B @dove_from_above | 22 Mar '07, 15:40 | X
                          • I think at Colchester

                            he was an attacking full-back, I've heard he's versatile enough to play most positions. Looking forward to seeing him more in the 'future'.
