The Tilehurst End - A Reading FC Podcast

Ben and Ross record before the takeover is officially confirmed, but handily provide new owners Rob and Todd with a suggested retained list of Reading players approaching the end of their contracts. Plus, after a beefy mailbag, the boys run through their first priorities for the new owners, including exactly what parts of the stadium could do with some TLC.

Charlie Savage’s dad joins the pod for a wide-ranging chat about Reading FC, and Charlie’s experience at the club so far. Robbie gives a detailed rundown of his take on Reading over the past two seasons, and gives real insight on the team dynamic. Plus, with a hugely successful first season in management under his belt with Macclesfield, Robbie tells Ben and Ross his thoughts on why man-management is such a crucial aspect of modern management.

He’s only gone and flipping done it. Reading Football Club is pleased to announce the sale in principle of the club to Redwood Holdings Limited: owned by one Rob Couhig (and Todd Trosclair). Ben drags Ross out of bed at 6am on the East Coast to celebrate the news before heading straight to the Amazons’ show at the Purple Turtle stage!

Reading take the playoff race to the final day and score one of their best goals of the season against Bristol Rovers. Ben and Ross are here to break down victory over the Gas and try to help a bulging mailbag of Reading fans get through the long wait for Saturday. Plus there’s time to hear about how Ben became a hero of the people this week at the megastore… Thanks as always to our friends at ZCZ Films for sponsoring the pod!

The Premier League brings out all the big guns for the under-18s cup final (and hopefully pays for them too), but the young Royals fall 2-1 at home in a late shock defeat to West Ham United. Ben runs us through that game before Ross recaps the men's team's 5-1 thrashing of Mansfield Town. There’s yet another club statement for the pod to make a statement about relating to the ownership crisis, plus lots of excitement (and a fair amount of nervousness) around the playoff run-in.
