Sir Les has played for both. When he had a short spell at Reading, he used to arrive for training by helicopter !!
 
Alan Pardew has played for both. He guested for us once when we played in the Inter Toto.

I see it being closer than some expect, going for a 1-0 win but we miss a few good chances along the way to make it a nervy final ten minutes.

If there's fatigue/jetlag, we can always bring on Livermore and Sigurdsson in the second half.
 
I expect a draw, or a narrow defeat if we play Defoe up front. I'll think I'll spontaneously combust if AVB makes such an idiotic choice:smiley:
 
It's striking how quickly pressure is building on AVB. Not winning this game will make it even more uncomfortable, even though he really can't be judged so far.

Who I think will start:

Beni Gallas Vert Walker

Dembele Livermore

Bale Gylfi Lennon

Ade

Who I'd like to start

Beni Dawson/Caulker Vert Walker

Bale Dembele Sandro Lennon

Dempsey

Ade
 
the problem we've got, is that Defoe scored again for england during the week. Yes, it didn't count, but it should have been a legitimate goal and a good finish. - How does AVB drop him? it's the same as the Brad scenario.

After hearing that there's jetlag in the team, I don't think we'll start sandro or Dempsey.

i think it'll be the following:

Brad
Walker Verts Gallas Benny
Livermore Dembele
Lennon Sig Bale
Defoe

and again, it won't work.

it'll be great to see us win, but it won't shut up the AVB critics. They'll just say "but they were only playing reading". - which is insulting to reading who are a good footballing side.
