OPINION: With the season drawing nearer, one conundrum facing #ReadingFC is the midfield trio, with four quality players vying for three places. Here’s who @harry_chafer thinks Hunt will go with, but also what he’d like to see himself. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/7/10/2446…
No more marches, no more microwave meals for the players, no more pitch invasions, no more fearing for the future of our club. Finally we can get back to being normal football fans again, complaining about starting lineups and flat pints. UTFD. @TheTilehurstEnd #ReadingFC
Reading Football Club is pleased to announce that Redwood Holdings Limited have completed their takeover of the football club. Statement in full 👇
READ: After the signing of Mark O’Mahony on Monday afternoon, @harry_chafer takes a look at those who've come before him. Harry ranks #ReadingFC's three best Irish strikers from years gone by and looks at how well the new man could do in Berkshire. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/7/8/24463…
“I’m sure his laugh, energy and vigour will be missed deeply around the corridors of Bearwood.” @harry_chafer bids farewell to Amadou Mbengue, who left #ReadingFC for pastures new over the weekend. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/7/2/24459…
Judging from people’s reactions you’d think we’d just released a yellow and navy home kit… Pays homage to a local business and key part of our history, really nice launch video, and it’s something a bit different. Personally love it. #readingfc @TheTilehurstEnd

"We don’t know what the next few months hold, but now we can be excited about the future rather than dread it." ✍️ @harry_chafer / #ReadingFC thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/5/14/2443…
Hey, I never said that… #readingfc
For a written take, here's what @harry_chafer made of the occasion. Unfortunately some FOMO for him on #ReadingFC's big day... apparently Bali is more appealing than Berkshire 🧐 thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/5/3/24423…
"Today hurts, but there are brighter days ahead now - and for a long time we didn’t think that would that be case." ✍️ @harry_chafer / #ReadingFC thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/5/3/24423…
It’s our footy club, always has been and always will. Here’s to another 153 years we feared may never happen. @TheTilehurstEnd #readingfc




Incredible 🥲 what I’d do to be at the SCL today. So, so happy for everyone at the club - none more so than us fans. We fucking deserve it. Now time to do the business on the pitch… Up the goddamned ‘Ding. #readingfc @TheTilehurstEnd

Looks like Couhig may be the one after all. He’ll have some serious bridges to build from the get go, but imo anyone who’s not Dai Yongge is an improvement. Just time for fewer words and more actual stuff happening now. #readingfc @TheTilehurstEnd
Club Statement | An update on the ongoing sale process
After everything that has been and keeps being thrown at this team, they’re two points clear in 6th with 5 games to go. That flight back from Aus landing on the morning of 10 May looking like a better idea every day… #readingfc @TheTilehurstEnd
Whew, don't know about you but I needed a drink after that... what a wild ride of a game and what a night! 😅 Simply incredible to think that we were all preoccupied so long with #ReadingFC simply staying up, and yet, with five games to go, we're in the top six! After what it's…
RATINGS: Plenty of praise all round from @harry_chafer for an excellent #ReadingFC performance. Particularly for the "hustling and bustling" Charlie Savage and the "untouchable" Harvey Knibbs. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/3/11/2438…
“We are going to have games like this because we are having to ask so much of such a small, inexperienced squad.” A jaded-looking #ReadingFC couldn’t find a way past Exeter City. Here’s how @harry_chafer saw the game. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com/2025/3/4/24377…
