Wasn't this samuel the massive BNP racist fool as well. If so, not suprised he is making such bullshit predictions. Hope you don't work for a bookmakers!

So if I agree with him and I do think you shouldn't dismiss either QPR or Reading's chances does that make me a massive BNP racist fool - are you Ultra in disguise?

Well if you are a BNP supporter, then it would not be out of place for me to suggest that your judgement is clouded somewhat.

Well I'm definitely not and don't see the connection and if someone who shares a persons view on football doesn't mean they share their political views which you are suggesting.

Frankly if you want to criticise his political view do it in an appropriate topic there's no need to raise it in a football related topic as it has no bearing what so ever on the subject.

What the hell is any of this to do with football?

Two games in hand for Reading, on fire right now..................why couldnt they be the ones to make a run?

I guess that makes me a facist too

Would like to see you monitor off-topic posts in other threads in the same way? I don't see why I shouldn't be allowed to raise a point - admittedly a poor one, whereas I remember a topic on some girl in a leicester top with her breasts out in a topic on this very forum. Seem to recall that was never closed, with even active participation by you.

Has your post been removed - No!.

Your linking of his political views with his football ones implied that anyone who had the same football views shared the political ones, I found that inaccurate and offensive to anyone with similar football views, it was tantamount to a personal attack on those sharing that football view.

A girl with her breasts out doesn't represent or imply anything personal and although may be deemed unacceptable is hardly in the same league as implying that all those with a particular football view are BNP supporters/racists.

I would like you to stop moaning about things that have got nothing to do with the thread, but i guess we don't always get what we want and you will reply to my post with more crap that has nothing to do with the subject!

Back to the original topic- I don't see why Reading or QPR couldn't gatecrash the play-offs. It has been done in the past. A few back to back wins and they could be right in the mixer. I think Blackpool will steadily fall away and Sheff Utd always seem to bottle it. Cov and Boro are the teams most likely to pose a threat in my eyes, but in my opinion the top 6 will remain the same unless one of the teams goes on a long winless run.

Reading are looking pretty good at the minute so can't be ruled out, but it would take something special for them to reach the play off's, maintaining there current form for the rest of the season won't be an easy task, but it is possible and they don't have the FA cup to distract them anymore either.

As long as we're there come the end of the season I couldn't care less who else is with us to be honest.

With Reading and QPR, they both can't afford to lose more than a couple of games really, so I'm not too concerned about those currently, especially as we have the opportunity to inflict defeats on each club.

Meaning they both have the opportunity to inflict defeats on us.

Really?....You should read a little more carefully.

Reading making a late dash is not as daft as it sounds people..

No, I'm sorry, it is just as daft as it sounds to me... Reading might be playing well at the moment but getting to the play-offs? Nah.

as much as it's possible, with the amount of games left, realistically they have little chance, the only change in the play-offs at the moment looks like Cardiff dropping out and M'boro/Sheff U replacing them.

Seems to me with 11/12 games or 33/36 points to play for and a 'potential gap' between Cardiff in 6th place and Reading in 17th place of just just 8 points a lot of people are counting their and others chickens before they hatch.

One of the most used phrases associated with this league this year is that any team can beat any team on their day, that the results have been chock-a-block with surprises and traditionally a team makes a late burst up the table and yet so many of you think that it's pretty much all done and dusted.

I can't understand why you all think it's so outrageous that that team just 'might' be Reading who are currently top of the current form (last 6) table having won 5 out of 6 games with just the one defeat away to Blackpool.

This is football stranger things than this happen on a regular basis dunno.gif

Forgive me if I'm wrong but aren't you one of the bellends who said we would be like 15th in January or something?

He was.

Yes but for a team like Reading, who are STILL near the wrong end of the table, to be able to get up the league, it would require a lot of teams above them to slip up... it's not like they can just win and overtake everyone, they have to rely on other teams above them losing too. That's where it becomes far less likely that they will get near the play-offs as I can't see the scenario required to happen for them happening. The fact they lost to play-off chasing (for the moment) Blackpool suggests that they are still capable of losing to teams further up the league so it then becomes more difficult for them to maintain any sort of pressure on the top teams if they drop points...

EDIT: Just had a look at their recent results and yes they've won 5 from 6, but they were all against teams in the lower regions of the table... the real test will come when they face teams further up the league and the loss to Blackpool suggests they didn't cope as well when the quality is somewhat better...

Teams such as Liverpool, Burnley and nearly Villa?

Well of course other teams would have to lose but they are doing so on an almost regular basis as for not beating blackpool well not many teams have. Besides all I'm saying is it's not ludicrous or outrageous to suggest that it could happen.

Give it a rest, everyone knows the FA Cup is a COMPLETELY different scenario.

There's always teams come out of the pack etc. You only have to look at last season in League One to prove that....MK Dons fell apart, Peterborough didn't have the bottle (we looked like we didn't either), S****horpe looked out of it at one point...they needed a last minute goal against Tranmere to get in the play-offs and duly won them. It will change a couple of times yet in a division so tightly packed.

You have to respect how well Reading have done. Play offs is still a big reach for them but if they carry on with this form then they stand every chance.

Iv always said Reading. I know he had 1 good game last night but i've seen him many times before and next season I reckon we should go for him - Jimmy Kebe, his performance last night just made me think even better of him.

I thought he was very very lazy personally. Didn't seem to want the ball and didn't really seem to take much interest in the game. I don't think you can really judge him on his 2 performances against us because Ryan McGivern would make Keith Gillespie look like a decent winger.

As for Reading, I don't think they'll keep up this form if they continue to play like they did last night. Very very negative, 1 up front and never looked like much of a threat. The goals were a result of full-back howlers (1st from McGivern 2nd from Solano) rather than great play.
