The 5 best Reading FC You Tube videos

1. Relegation song
One man's musical lament - funny, strangely moving and quite brilliant:
'...we face the future with no malice, even though we must play Palace....'

Clever, witty and the Kebe bit is genius. Nice nod to the new sponsors too. Oh, and Downfall is a cinematic tour de force in case you didn't know already.

There's quite a few videos of Murts' penalty in our final game of the legendary promotion season, but this one taken from the North Stand is my favourite: the lack of any sound lends the whole scene a surreal quality, and it takes on the air of a silent movie homage as the Keystone Cops (the rest of the team and Kingsley) give chase to Buster 'Murts' Keaton!

Lest we forget, and just remember, that's what happened last time we were in the CCC.

One unbelievable night. Shame we lost the final. What about Forster, Butler, Cureton...goals for fun that season in Ye Olde Division Three.
