    One little flap from the goalie and Clarke is out of a job...its a fickle game. I'm thrilled the flap happened but I do feel for him.

    No sympathy there, he'll be well weighed-off. Sacking is an occupational hazard these days. I reckon 90% of managers are sacked within three years...

    Do you? After the disparaging remarks he made about us when he was at West Brom? And it's even funnier that he turned down Fulham to stay, and now they've given him the boot!

    The Reading fans wanted him gone after the Fulham debacle. Last night they were screaming for blood. Now they've got it, not a shock to see him go.

    He should have gone. Wrong what he did to Reading.
    They will probably get in Pearson, get promoted and Clark will be working at some League One club.

    Reading fans are deluded, they have been saying that we are a poor side and they were better? <doh>
    The game was dire and a draw was probably a fair result but then we were unlucky at Boro.
    As for the Reading team, i thought they were average and nowhere near the top 4 teams.

    From a couple of weeks ago - this scenario may now play out:-

    Reading line up Nigel Pearson as next manager with Steve Clarke set for Fulham
    • Championship side Reading look set to lose Steve Clarke to Fulham
    • The Berkshire club are set to talk to Nigel Pearson about the vacant hotseat
    • Pearson may appoint new staff with old team contracted to Leicester City

    Reading are lining up Nigel Pearson to become their next manager.
    The Berkshire club are poised to lose Steve Clarke to Fulham who had originally targeted Pearson.
    However, in a twist of events on Wednesday, talks with Pearson broke down and Clarke emerged as the preferred candidate for Fulham's owners.

    Good! Anyone who says anything bad about QPR deserves all he gets (and he has Scumdust on him).

    I thought they were pretty dire to watch, marginally worse than us on that front, but carried the greater threat. Unsurprising really given they played with strikers. The free kick was sublime and they wasted an excellent header early on. Apart from a goal that should have been easily kept out and one good set piece, we really offered very little.

    Still, he's a cock.

    We won the league cup in 1967. We must be MASSIVE!
    What we have won doesn't mean **** all in my book.
