Hello? Any Reading FC fans state side? Anyone got a decent state side link?
I met Marcus when I lived in Seattle and have followed The Royals ever since his first match in goal.
White! Blue! Win or Lose!
We're with you all the way!
We've got a feeling, this is going to be our day!

Glad to see that I am not the only Reading supporter in the U.S. I am heading over to work in Hampshire this summer, about 1/2 hour from Reading. Hoping to catch a friendly or an early season league game before I return. I am hoping Reading has a few home matches early in the season. At the very least, I can now pick up more Reading paraphenalia (one of my co-workers is a season ticket holder and provides me with signs, etc.).

I'm a Reading fan. I grew up in Reading, PA, one of Reading's sister cities in America. Because of that connection and Marcus and Bobby on the team I'm very excited to see them in the Premiership!

There is much love for Reading over on the "Yanks Abroad" forum in the USA section. We frequently do pbp threads of Reading matches, although that will be a little harder with them in the Prem since we won't get the free BBC Five Live broadcasts anymore . . .

With 2 Yanks, I already like Reading. With 1 more, they will be my favorite team in the EPL. With 2 more, I will be a full fledged supporter.

I will be following this season for the first time as well. I hope the US players and team as a whole succeed.

The Reading Official Site has some pretty fun images of the promotion/Championship celebrations, that include shots of Convey and the rest of the boys. http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsArchive/0,,10306~1896,00.html (http://www.readingfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/NewsArchive/0,,10306%7E1896,00.html)
You may have to register to access, but it's free until you want video access, which, BTW, I think is totally worth the $ (it certainly was when they were in the Championship). Look at the May 1 week and maybe a few weeks before. I still have 15+ of those pics in a slide show screen saver at work... and it still makes me smile, but I'm looking forward to updating it with some Prem shots!
BTW, that huge picture of Convey always cracks me up. You can see he had to cut the sleeves - I remember reading that they only had extra large when they took the players' mug shots with the new kit. Little guy in a big, big shirt:)

Don't know if this will help or not.
