    Siestas are for wimps.

    Actually, .i was talking to someone I know who came back fairly recently after over 20 years in Spain. He was saying it was hard getting back into the rhythm of things here. Took him a while to twig in Spain that it was a mistake to do what a lot of Brits do and live your life by the hours you did back home. He started having a siesta and working later then going out at 10 pm for a meal and drinking wine instead of loads of beer. You would see school kids out at that time with their parents at that time but they were up for school in the morning.
    Now he’s back he can’t get into beer again or eating early. As a bit of an insomniac I would prefer the Spanish way but the wife is one of those who can sleep through the clock and thinks our pub hours are late.

    Ahh, that explains a lot. How much business do reckon restraunts would get from insomniacs in Hull?

    Actually, there might be an business opportunity there.

    There seem plenty of places making a living out of late diners on the continent. Not in clubs but just ordinary restaurants.

    If you're quick enough you can correct typos without it saying 'last edited' at the bottom.

    It seems I've left it a bit late to look for seats for this season, there isn't a single pair of seats available in E6 or E7 now.

    According to the stadium plan there are still some available, although now may pairs high up

    in E6 they are available in pairs from row H, but E7 has plenty from Row R down

    No idea, but probably not great, or they'd have announced something.

    You can only buy a membership for one seat online, I'm assuming you have to call them to sort more than one seat together?

    I'm sure there's a team of people at City, who are tasked with making things as unnecessarily complicated as possible. :emoticon-0120-doh:

    Reading owner subsidises travel costs for Hull City clash

    Reading have announced that their owner Yongge Dai has subsidised the travel costs for the 15 furthest league journeys of the season.

    Adults will have to just pay £10 for travel for the season in those matches, covering a distance of around 5,500 miles.

    The first of those matches takes place against Hull City on the 10th of August.

    Stark contrast to £40 per head on the Tigers Travel bus. Their coach must be fuelled by kerosene.

    Weren't they part of the Chinese consortium who came close to buying us a couple of years back .. nice to see owners with a bit of integrity and thought for the lifeblood of the club rather then hoping they die !

    In the dim and distant, when Pearson took over, he said it wasn't unrealistic for us to progress, and perhaps become a club like Reading. It seemed light years away at the time.
