Reading 2 (Kitson 53, Long 84)
Newcastle 1 (Duberry og 74)

Supersub Shane Long scored a late winner with only his second touch to give Reading a dramatic and fully-deserved three points against Newcastle today.
Steve Coppell's men were on top throughout the game, and Leroy Lita missed two key chances in the first half, including one absolute sitter.
Newcastle should have had a penalty as Michael Owen was fouled by Marcus Hahnemann, but that was United's only real moment in the first half.
Reading continued to press after the break, and Dave Kitson scored a superb goal from 20 yards. Kitson was superb throughout, and fully deserved his goal.
United got a fortunate equaliser though when Michael Duberry turned into his own net, but once again we bounced back.
The immense Ibrahima Sonko flicked on a free kick, and Long took a touch then smacked home, just seconds after being introduced.
There were heroes all over the pitch for Reading, with Kevin Doyle playing a huge part on the right wing.
Arguably our best performance of the season so far, and three fully deserved points

A viral all-stars highlight reel. Yes, it’s been done before, but this one is not only clever, it’s jam-packed. I watched in awe, thinking about how much of my time over the last few years has been wasted on the shenanigans of internet culture silliness. The things we do for a laugh!

My personal favourites are:

You refer to the old shopping centre as the Butts.
You can say that you did a pub crawl of every pub in town and still weren't drunk.
You used to hang around the benches to be cool.
You own records that you bought in Knights.
You still own records that you bought in Green River.
You've still got the piercings you had done in Cavaliers.
You know what the "3 B's" stands for.
Sunday was the best night to go out at the weekend.
You can remember when there were no black cabs to be hailed.
You bought your train tickets from The Three Guineas and your stamps from Yates wine bar.
The Boars Head was full of hells angels.
You know that the flooring in Sainsburys hasn't changed since you were pushed round in a shopping trolley.
You stayed well away from the Mitre Inn.
You still try to get to Friar St through Woolworths.
You look for buses when crossing Broad St.
The bus station had buses in it.
Getting out of your head in the Forbury seemed a good thing to do.
Metal box was an impressive building.
The IDR was new, but ended in a sheer drop where it met the bottom of Southampton Street.
You still miss the pick & mix at Littlewoods.
You can say that you owned a pair of Freeman, Hardy & Willis shoes.
You didn't mind the lack of facilities in the After Dark.
You knew the staff from Samara Kebab to say hello to.
You can give someone directions around the one way system!
TGI's was a new, fun & novelty place to eat.
You remember when someone nicked ET off the top of the ABC cinema.

Which way is the girl spinning? If you said clock-wise than you're right brained. Counter-clock-wise then you're left brained. But can you make her change directions at will?
More about the left brain/right brain mumbo jumbo here. I've seen her spin both ways equally so I don't know what that means.
I haven't spent this much time staring at a naked lady on my computer screen since...alright since a couple of hours ago ....

A million seconds is 13 days.
A billion seconds is 31 years.
A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.


A million minutes ago was – 1 year, 329 days, 10 hours and 40 minutes ago.
A billion minutes ago was just after the time of Christ.


A million hours ago was in 1885.
A billion hours ago man had not yet walked on earth.


A million dollars ago was five (5) seconds ago at the U.S. Treasury.
A billion dollars ago was late yesterday afternoon at the U.S. Treasury.


A trillion dollars is so large a number that only politicians can use the term in conversation… probably because they seldom think about what they are really saying. I’ve read that mathematicians do not even use the term trillion!

Here is some perspective on TRILLION:

Trillion = 1,000,000,000,000.
The country has not existed for a trillion seconds.
Western civilization has not been around a trillion seconds.
One trillion seconds ago – 31,688 years – Neanderthals stalked the plains of Europe.

Million: 1,000,000

Sextillion: 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

WANNABE singing sensation Daniela Pani is so mad at being rejected by TV show The X Factor that she is considering planning a demonstration in London against presenter Simon Cowell.
Audition judges who heard the 42-year-old’s rendition of 50s classic Volare rated it distinctly Z-list rather than X-traordinary and gave the disappointed Woodley warbler the heave-ho.
Now the fuming voluntary carer has hit out at judge Simon Cowell – dubbed ‘Mr Nasty’ – and his team for treating people with “amazing cruelty”.
She told the Post: “Simon Cowell needs to be dropped indefinitely as from the end of this series and I will campaign until this action is taken.
“I will even organise a mass protest campaign in London along with a website against this cowardly bully of a man, if I have to, and I will.”
Miss Pani,

who considers herself the spitting image of TV’s domestic goddess Nigella Lawson :-)

is distraught she was not even given the chance to sing in front of Sharon Osbourne and the other judges on the show that launched the careers of stars including Shayne Ward and Leona Lewis.(more here)

What a muppet she is and to think she is the spitting image of Nigella Lawson (more like she ate Nigella Lawson), LOL - she even had to buy a packed lunch in Marks & Spencer - poor woman. Nigella lookalike my arse. What is wrong with these people - even the local choral society turned her down.

Few teams, if any, will come away from Fratton Park this season scoring four goals and not taking all three points.
The Royals will be keen to forget the highest scoring Premier League match to history on the South coast, but can only do so by rectifying the problem this Sunday against bottom of the table Derby.
Many of the team registered below par performances at Portsmouth with no player coming off the field with much credibility. Brynjar Gunnarson looked out of his depth in midfield against the likes of Papa Bouba Diop and Sean Davis, and so far this season has failed to reproduce any of the form he showed last year like so many of the team. The Icelandic international was at fault for at least two of Pompey's magnificent seven and looked completely over-awed by Harry Redknapps team's pace and physicality.
Perhaps its now time to throw record signing Emerse Fae into the middle to partner James Harper with Kaliffe Cisse still sidelined through injury and Andre Bikey looking a better player at the back.
Even though Ibrahima Sonko is getting close to full match fitness for the first time in nearly a year Reading can't pin all their hopes on Superman to tighten up the defence.
Having let in 18 goals in just eight games the Royals need to stop the rot quickly this weekend in what is sure to be billed as a six pointer against Derby, the team with the worst defensive record in the league this season.
Dave Kitson seems to have conquered his injury demons and issues over his confidence. This Sunday will be just as crucial for the front two as much as it will be elsewhere on the pitch. It was a surprise that Kits didn't grab the ball off Nicky Shorey to take the penalty and lets just hope the goals continue to come from him and Doyle can get himself going also.
With Steve Coppell still unsure as to what his best strike partner is, Kitson will probably partner Kevin Doyle up front after Leroy Lita's latest alleged off field incidence on the back of the managers mind.
Hopefully Bobby Convey will be fit to play on the right with Glen Little sidelined after his Achilles operation in Sweden this week and looks set to miss the majority of this season.
Sunday's midlands visitors would have taken note of Reading's recent performances and it is up to the lads to put in a solid performance to exorcise any more of the second season syndrome tabloid talk.

Radiohead, the internationally renowned band, has taken the unusual step of telling fans that they can pay as much or as little as they like for the band's new album In Rainbows.
In a break from industry tradition the UK band famous for hits including Creep, Paranoid Android and Karma Police, has told fans "it's up to you" what they pay to digitally download the album.
This isn't the first time that an artist has opted to charge nothing for its album, but the move is significant because Radiohead remains one of the biggest bands in the world.
Radiohead is free to sell its album directly from its official website because it is no longer tied to a record label. So far the album is only available to pre-order from the website, where it can be downloaded on release on October 10.
While loyal fans are likely to want to pay the band something, customers could opt to pay as little 45p - the credit card handling fee.
The album is also available separately as part of a £40 box-set which includes the album on CD, two vinyl records, a CD with additional songs, photos, artwork and lyrics.
It is Radiohead's first album since Hail to the Thief, which was released in 2003 after which the band's contract with EMI/Capitol expired.
It is likely that many of its millions of die-hard fans will be unable to resist buying the box-set, available in December, while Radiohead will not be required to share its profits with either a record label or shops.
Radiohead could even benefit from those who ignore the box set and choose to pay nothing to download the album from Radiohead's online shop, where they will be required to register their details and therefore become targets for future marketing campaigns.
Free albums also drive demand for live tours, which translate to pound signs for the artists behind them. A great example of this is Prince, who in July gave away his album 3121 for free in the UK through the Daily Mail.
He subsequently announced 21 tour dates in London, all of which sold out.
Radiohead has the financial welly and is sufficiently well-known to be confident enough that the move is a risk worth taking, but it might also become an answer for those lesser known bands that struggle to be signed by a record label, or are reluctant to share their profits.
