Reading signed Reading FC Women's player and England international Fran Kirby to a professional contract. Crackin'.

Delighted to announce @FranKirbyy has become the 1st @ReadingFCWomen star to turn professional http://t.co/PnBBnQCtNP pic.twitter.com/21fvn9oDW0

And this is what @frankirby is all about - a taster of how she's scored 29 goals in 22 games! http://t.co/o9bwJSIagv

Edwards makes his Olyroos debut. What's an Olyroo? No idea.

2-2 draw with Brazil. Goals from Gameiro and Amini. Boys gave it all & played good football. Happy to set up @CoreyGameiro for the first!

Former GetReading reporter Jonny Fordham joins in on the sympathies for GetReading (who are to move to digital-only).

#AlbinoRobsonKanu. Get it trending.

I love that Konami have thrown the Championship into PES 2015 but it's safe to say they've not done much research pic.twitter.com/zIzynqDyFj

Who doesn't dream of this moment?

Reliving the moment I kissed @federici32 sweaty head during the pitch invasion 2012 http://t.co/a2CGJKmNPh 48 seconds in. #readingfc

Great work by Joey. Still relevant, 8 days on.

Federici gets tetchy at big-bummed Kim K.

WE COULD HAVE HAD SVEN. (Sorry if the obscenity is offensive. I just felt this was too good to leave out.)

Anyone see this shit about Sven in the paper? #readingfc I'd rather Terry Bullivant!!!! pic.twitter.com/nMxZTlmc0i

Bit early for panto jokes, innit?

Oh well ...if any pantos out there are missing a donkey ....Pearce from #Readingfc will be available for the next few weeks!

McCleary our saviour? Nah.

@Mclorypls McCleary is not the messiah. If Jesus had had that hairstyle, he would have been crucified sooner.

— Coley Parker (@facaldaqui) November 21, 2014

The Royals players head over to thank the travelling support for great backing. Garath McCleary's name the last to ring out

Hope A-CRYPTIC-pan. (Yes, that was genuinely awful.)

There's issues at hand that we're not discussing...

I liked this pun from last week, so I'm repeating it: Adam not Le Fond of his reception. HA HA HA LOL.

Disappointed with the Reading fans last night for booing me! Didn't think I deserved that!

THE LEGEND RETURNED.

@ReadingFC Was great to be back and see so many friendly faces!

Meanwhile, two former Royals have a good ol' natter.

@BrianDavisSFG we were class and respected our jobs and the fans and had fun

— Dylan Kerr (@legend3) November 23, 2014

@BrianDavisSFG @legend3 was a great time for me. And the players in that era had an affinity with fans

— Simon Osborn (@SimonOsborn40) November 23, 2014

@john_callaghan @legend3 Elm Park days were great. We as players ran our own bar. Injured had to work behind it.

— Simon Osborn (@SimonOsborn40) November 23, 2014

@legend3 ha ha. U know I was last one always taking u home as u were drunk on 2 pints of bitter.

— Simon Osborn (@SimonOsborn40) November 23, 2014

So Akpan begins his recovery from a shoulder operation. Three months... Tick, tock.

Operation went well thank God. Road to recovery officially under way.

@persandwichman @charles_watts @TheNigelAdkins I'm positively positive it can't be him. This would only knock the positivity out of him.

@TheNigelAdkins plenty of fans are on your side, things will turn around soon. Its a big project & u need to be given the time to succeed.

— Daniel Chandler (@DanielWChandler) November 26, 2014

Fair play to Nigel for giving it a go. I hope he has his tin hat ready for some of you lot though. Play nice #readingfc
