Good stuff chaps.

Anyone confirm Fae??

I can't remember him 'playing' for Reading.

He was on the pitch from time to time but playing?

De La Cruz has played in a few for Ecuador I believe. Recently reached 100 caps too, though only by Ecuadorian standards, apparently a lot of their games weren't recognised by Fifa.

That's a bit tough, Foxy, next you'll be saying that we can't appropriate Daley's gold medals to Reading as well.

I watched Convey play against Czech Republic in Gelsenkirchen. We stood with the USA fans in full Reading gear, complete with Reading flag & as he took his place on the pitch he spotted us & gave a thumbs up. Happy days & an ambition fulfilled.

We also met Hahnemann's family after the match which was also nice as they actually came up to us.
