Three months of hard work were flushed down the drain as Reading FC got off to a terrible start in the 2019/20 Championship, losing 3-1 to Sheffield Wednesday.
Jose Gomes’ tactics, decisions and selection come in for criticism on The Tilehurst End Podcast Episode 197, hosted by Marc Mayo with Alan ‘Westy’ West for company. However, there is room for perspective after the first of 46 league games this season.
The guys also talk through the Royals’ rush to get late deals over the line, with three major incomings due - one of which could cost £5million. That comes after the Mailbag with the trip to Hull the focus of Big Match Preview.

It’s time. Football is back and Reading Football Club enters the new campaign with a sense of great unpredictability. After a quiet summer on the transfer front but stocked by fresh young talent, the Royals will be hard to pin down for the early weeks of the 2019/20 season.
Doing their best to work out what is to come, Marc Mayo and Dave ‘Handbags’ Harris take you through the major goings on of the summer and preview the year ahead in The Tilehurst End Podcast episode 196.

It was a rollercoaster season that saw Reading FC do much more than just flirt with relegation for the second year running, but the club were ultimately saved after a dreadful start.
Marc Mayo hosts The Tilehurst End podcast alongside Dan ‘Wimb’ Wimbush and Dave ‘Handbags’ Harris with Episode 195 wrapping up another non-boring season supporting the Royals. The guys review the campaign, cover the issues surrounding the club in Newsbites, answer your Mailbag questions, and have a sneak peak at 2019/20.
A huge thank you to everyone who has listened to the show this season, it’s been another year of flux at a club level and - somewhat less importantly - at a personal level and we wouldn’t be here if people didn’t want to listen in on our shenanigans.

Reading FC were able to indulge in a game that didn’t really matter on Saturday, coming away from the inflatables day at Middlesbrough with a 2-1 defeat.
The highlight came in Danny Loader’s early screamer and The Tilehurst End podcast credits the teenager with showing his class having faced questions over his ability in recent weeks. Marc Mayo is joined by Olly Allen to discuss the game and delve into the summer transfer window in Pubchat, a topic that features heavily in your Mailbag questions. Episode 194 is then capped off by a look ahead to Birmingham City in Any Other Business.

It’s not a scenario Reading expected to be in, but they travel to Middlesbrough on Saturday with little to play for as Championship safety has been all but secured. Olly Allen and the Wokingham Paper’s Isaac Farnworth discuss how the Royals approach the game against a Boro side with an excellent defence but poor attack, whilst Chris Gunter, Danny Loader and Tom McIntyre are all topics of conversation in the team news section.
For the View from the Town End this week, we’re joined by Jonny, Dana and Elliott from the Boro Breakdown Podcast.

Both Reading FC and West Brom had plenty of chances to take all three points from a boisterous Madejski Stadium on a sunny Easter Monday - but a 0-0 draw was enough to secure Jose Gomes’ men their Championship survival with two games to spare.
While not mathematically safe - Rotherham require a six-point, 13-goal swing in two games to overtake us - we can finally look ahead to next season and of course the upcoming season closers with much, much less stress. Doing so in Episode 193 of The Tilehurst End podcast are Marc Mayo and Simeon Pickup.
After recapping the Bristol and West Brom draws, the guys cover the rest of the club’s goings-on in Newsbites, answer your Mailbag questions, and preview the last away day of the season: Middlesbrough.
