Tony ‘Coops’ Cooper passed away this week. He played before my time but I knew him socially and he was a lovely chap.

I am hoping the club will hold a minutes silence on Boxing Day. If anyone has his records for the club (appearances, years, goals etc) I would love to see them

Speedy little winger who chased lovely passes from Roger Thorndale past the full back and put in decent crosses. He was a hard worker. One of the many local lads who played at that time.

He was a decent old fashioned winger, could cross a decent ball, and chipped in with his share of goals RIP Tony

The big screen montage was done very nicely last night and Jim set the tone beautifully with his intro.

And the Reading fans were very respectful.

They did their own “people we’ve lost” before Christmas, so know all about it.

Missed this. Do you know whether it was uploaded anywhere?

Pretty sure it was on their social media channels (definitely on FB) - so it's likely on the official website, too.
