Other than sounding like some horrible spiritual mantra, the headline above means that we've passed the one year mark as a website. When we first launched a year ago I don't think any of us expected to have such a great reaction from Reading fans so thanks to everyone who has come over and read or submitted an article, plus those we've interviewed or have helped us out with opposition fans views.
Also thanks to other fantastic Reading sites, The Royals Rendezvous & HobNobAnyone? for the continued support, as well as the Royals Post Podcast and the people at Reading FC themselves who have always been happy to back us, cheers to all of you.
We're hoping for another great year and if you'd like to contribute we always welcome people on board, just send us an email to thetilehurstend@gmail.com
