    Honestly sickening the way Reading have been treated. The EFL should hand their head in shame.

    You honestly believe UEFA are also in on some strange Liverpool conspiracy that doesn't actually exist?

    Or am I reading too much into your post? Lol

    If I am honest, I have enjoyed my stays in Doha. The first visit was interesting as I found the architcture to be staggering. My partner's friend worked on the Al Bayt stadium and the sporting facilities are incredible. Without doubt the Qatari's are trying to build Doha into a city geared around sport and I have since been to another football ground as well as the horse racing track. If you visit the city on Friday, the car parks are full of Indians playing cricket.

    My experience of Qatar is that it is very clean, safe and the people generally hospitable. They like the English over there and my stays have been agreable. As a sports fan, I could think of few better venues as there is an excellent underground railway, the hotels are good and the lack of alcohol means that you do not have idiots getting drunk and kicking off. If anyone is geared up for sporting competitions, it is certainly Qatar.

    Can I be a complete spud and ask why we don't have a game tomorrow? Is it Coventry related?

    All the more reason we should play them tonight, they won't expect it.

    We could 9-0 back if they don't turn up.

    Could tell them it ended 25-0. How could they deny it? They weren't even there!

    Yeah, who cares about human rights, slavery or bribery. As long as the sport is good

    They don’t need any excuse to waffle on. Those late to the potato pun fest can ketchup later.

    Those people have just been frittering away their time, they may as well have been playing croquette or watching reruns of M*A*S*H.

    If Coventry progress here, their home game vs Ipswich will be postponed due to it falling on SF weekend.

    I'd say that Wolves have been the better team, but Coventry have had the better chances.
