    Sorry but the change.org petitions is just a email gathering service, it won’t get you a guaranteed reply.
    The petition needs to go on the government petitions page where 10,000 signatures will guarantee a government reply.?

    I think we need to hold a protest outside the EFL headquarters. That will make the news and bring it to the wider attention of investigative journalists etc

    Cook1988 reacted to Derbados in A call to action   
    I’ve had enough, I’ve sat silently and patiently, foolishly hoping after the points deduction that this was a clean slate. 
    It’s clear that the EFL have a vendetta against this club and this latest move to block the preferred bidder needs highlighting and discussing from the highest media platforms and people of influence across the country. 
    As a fan base, chanting in the stadium simply isn’t enough anymore. We need to put real, sustained pressure on the EFL in the form of media exposure and noise. 
    Small steps lead to big things, the future of our football club is at stake, let’s not let it die without a fight! 
    Ive emailed just about every news outlet there is. If you have any positive action you’ve done, post below so we can keep track and build momentum.

    I just hope he sticks around in the hope that this situation will be resolved so he can sign on again. Really sad if not. He has been phenomenal.

    Please don’t do any damage to the Riverside stadium, players cars, team bus etc it could seriously damage our takeover prospects.
    To win the final battle sometimes it’s best not to engage with the enemy.

    Cook1988 reacted to angieram in Reading FC (A) Matchday Thread   
    Just got home from another great awayday.
    Best bit of the day, that header.
    Second best bit of the day, the post-match Radio Berks phone in. 
    Apparently, they were struggling for match fitness after three weeks rest, whereas we are all up to speed after our three easy wins;
    Apparently, they have been badly affected by covid, whereas our club has not;
    Apparently, they have been decimated by injuries to the extent that they are having to put academy players on the bench - aah! (Whereas we are having to rely on them in the first team, which they forgot to mention!) 
    Apparently their players aren't championship standard and are all freebies that no-one else would want.
    The radio presenters tended not to agree with the above comments and the programme finished with a rerun of their commentary of the game's goals - over a soundtrack of Britney Spears' "Oops, I did it again". Comedy gold!

    Sat quietly in with the Reading fans until that wonderful equaliser went in and completely forgot where I was, punching the air.  Cover blown but duck it. 
    What fight, guts and passion this team show. Never giving up. Cannot remember being more proud of our team after their recent performances.

    Cook1988 reacted to YouRams in Preparations for League 1   
    Not a doom and gloom thread, not a Rooney bashing thread, but a realist thread. Should we now be preparing for League 1 and stop the “we’ll fight till the end talk”? 
     
    The task was neigh on impossible with the -21 points, even adding them back on we’d still be heading into a relegation battle, so for me we should start the preparations now. Any saleable asset that will save our club and reduce the hmrc debt we should be looking to move on for a fee in Jan, if this means resting them and “playing the kids” to avoid injuries then so be it, and if that makes us a lot less competitive that’s on the EFL’s head not ours. We should be giving as many minutes as possible to the ones that will be staying for the rebuild.

    Cook1988 reacted to B4ev6is in I think Derby can stay up   
    I think Derby county beat the drop to league one a lot of teams have written us saying we have no chance we just beat bourmonth and drew fulham 0-0 and with pressure off us now the lads looking so more confordance and more than match fulham and we have some winnable games coming up. Next up QPR at home after that Blackpool and then we got Bristol city away. I think we could get at least all 9 points from these games. 
    And lads are feeding of the us Derby fans louder we are the better theh are playing and putting bodys on the line for us and Derby county. I think teams will be soon looking over shoulders at us.
    So I say we help lads avoid the drop to league and really really really upset efl and than banker gibson.
    Let's get pp rocking got QPR at home let the QPR players think oh god what has efl done here there fans are sticking by the team and they are not dived but togather standing as one. This not going to be easy one in fact let's make so they dont even want to play but just want QPR players want go stright back home.
    Let's our players think oh wow they really really do have our back so lets do this they chant Derby fight till the end and they really really means this.

    Cook1988 reacted to DCFC1388 in Points Target By Jan   
    I can understand all the doom & gloom after last nights performance as it was pretty pathetic.
    However, my question is how many points off 4th bottom should be our minimum aim by the time we get to Jan?
    By Jan we will hopefully be out of admin & be in a position to strengthen.
    Imo if we're in the same position as we are now in terms of 7pts off 4th bottom I think with some new attackers + Bielik hopefully close to match fitness in Jan we can still have a chance of staying up.
    Also, in comparison to last season we have 1 point more than we did last year & managed to stay up, obviously we have -12 but that could end up being more or less. We beat Millwall away in our 16th game, lets hope we can do the same this weekend in our 17th game.
    Last night has happened, we cant change it but we still need to support the team & help them to keep fighting to give ourselves the best chance possible, especially with Bournemouth & Fulham coming after the international break.

    Great to see, and one hates to come in on a negative, but wouldn't one who was truly maintaining one's Alvaston roots be settling one's ar5e in the actual South Stand, and with one's collar and tie a little more dishevelled? 
     
     
     
    Too many one's?  One fears it may be!
