I'm half of the opinion that Dai doesn't care what happens, what we're worth or how much he can get for us - with or without a viable team. We're an electric guitar he bought a few years ago and was briefly interested in, but are now stuck in the back of his wardrobe. Worth a bit if he stuck it on ...

This has to be seen as positive news. Whoever the buyer is (assume Couhig), they are funding the club to the end of the process, so no chance of us getting any more points deductions this season. It is obvious that the EFL have had it with Dai, and so would assume that their statement as to "p...

I’ve seen this point a couple of times and am not sure what is meant When you say ‘allows us’ to pick up other cat1 academy rejects, is there some sort of priority system where we get to choose, or are you just saying that being Cat1 gives us the status to attract the best free young players? If it...

Forever Royal Although it’ll be good if Couhig has managed to get a deal over the line at last, I’m kind of hoping it’ll be Roger Smee coming to the rescue once more.

What - spending his non-existent cash?

In that case why has he even tried to sell the club at all this year?

mikey_1871 The club aren't going to name him when he's in exclusivity are they?

Not sure what other 'evidence' is realistic beyond being named in the media.

Flying to the MadStad with his own branded helicopter is pretty convincing ...

Wing losing the ball there a lot towards the end of the half - think he was probably looking for stuff that just wasn't happening in front of him. But with him playing so deep it's very dangerous losing the ball.

I wouldn’t be interested in a phoenix club. Sadly after a lifetime of support I’ve moved on. Setting up a new club would be hard, the politics would be unbearable and personally I can’t get excited about it. Good luck to anyone who’s prepared to do more than promise a random amount of money. Do you...

Don't want to be sexist but that lineswoman was pretty shocking, no?

Mr Angry It really really doesn't matter in the short/medium term who purchases the club at this stage; ANYONE is better than Dai, who is literally destroying our football club.

Either Platek or Couhig will be an massive upgrade.

Hendo The accounts for the period ending 30th June 2023 have been filed, which feels like a positive step.

Yeah agree ... suggests to me that things are moving ...

Linden Jones' Tash "Well, for Reading, I guess they continue to operate as normal. I'm a little nervous whether they have the money to pay the king that they owe him this week "

Wait what?

Now we owe the King money?

Dye Young ... also made me laugh. If only, if only ...

Sutekh Can’t help but wish the parties come to an amicable settlement beforehand.

Or they stage a duel where they both die?

How about: COMFIMRED - this could have been it?

Sam Smith was reported missing in the aftermath of yesterday's game. Fortunately a Detective Mbengue of Thames Valley Police found him alive and well, if a little shellshocked, nestling quietly in Tyler Bindon's back pocket. Not a huge disgrace to be marked out of the game by the best player in the...

Fcking hell, I never read all the details on this thread, I was just hoping that, based on the récent news, we were home and hosed :x . Why would we get good news... wtaf have we done collectively in former lives to have this bad fcuking luck?!! Are you all reincarnated nonces?? It's my fault for b...

Couple of things clear with Dai His original intentions were clearly to spend a load of his cash to make us a prem team, and support the infrastructure re: Bearwood. Most fans certainly happy with that approach He clearly knows f all about actual football and why would he? So he should have stayed ...

Clyde1998 I guess with Craig out for the season, this makes sense. That's especially the case if Elliott isn't going to be back soon.

My concern is he wasn't playing regularly in League Two for Milton Keynes before having his contract terminated a month ago.

Maybe he didn't fit into their style of play?

No-one has mentioned - 100% more likely to win penalties in the last minute of the game!

Orion1871

SouthDownsRoyal Any update on this transfer?

Should go through once the takeover is complete.

I've heard he's signed up for when the Phoenix Club gets going ...
