Sometimes, you sit down to write Tweets of the Week and there's just nothing witty to start the feature off with. You could start with an analogy about Tim Dellor, or McDermott, or Williams and McShane, but at the end of the day none of them would be funny.
TTE assistant editor Marc has encountered a real life Carabao. It looks like medicine.
You're not a real #ReadingFC fan until you've seen authentic Thai Carabao in the flesh. It's not pretty. pic.twitter.com/arsZgQZrWE

Transfer rumour season is nigh.

The man Reading signed from Northern Ireland (inside joke) has extended his loan.
Striker @R_Liburd21 will remain at Adams Park for the rest of the season after his loan deal from #readingfc was extended today. #Chairboys

Frustrations growing.
The bare minimum we expect from players is to be professional and effort. Some of the players went below that today. Unacceptable #readingfc

The Boro winner was infuriating and hilarious in equal measures.
What was most slapstick bit of mighty Boro's brilliant bagatelle goal?
— anthony vickers (@untypicalboro) April 13, 2016
Frustrations boil over. There is scalding hot water everywhere.
Williams and Mcshane square up!! Lets all just get to the end of the season and go on holiday!!!

If you heard shouting in the background during Aitor's Tees interview it was fuming Brian McDermott kicking off at his local press #borolive

Will @BBCBerkshire broadcast Tim Dellor saying "If Vydra was a dog he would be put down" again this morning ? Dreadful comment #readingfc
