FiNeRaIn , no one cares about the women's game.

80,000 sell out for the Germany game at Wembley coming up might disagree with this view.

Jagermesiter1871 In reality its £66 as any actual human needs 2 Loftus Road 'seats'.

LOL - so true.

I just heard an interview with Bowen where he says he purposefully gave Gomes wrong advice in order to get him sacked, pressed the owners to get him sacked and replace him with someone Welsh and already at the club (but didn't specify himself), shredded all manager applications pretending they didn...

Since the interview I sense a softening and more acceptance towards this appointment. I genuinely wish him well and hope for an inspired choice, The twitter meltdown from our so called supporters is downright embarrassing. See our resident dickhead who was on full meltdown mode has since deleted all...

WestYorksRoyal Well he came across well here a couple of months ago.

But he led to the sacking of our Messiah Gomes with that amazing win percentage....

Genuinely surprised at the love for Gomes. For whatever reason, and I know its just throw away words, but he did appear to lose the dressing room. Something clearly unpopular was taking place. Maybe, key personnel within the club and I am talking players have got together and agreed what will work g...

WestYorksRoyal Just to say, this is the first team I've seen something Reading FC related in the global trending list on Twitter

Even sports journalists and national reporters laughing at fans reaction linked to Reading FC's announcement tweet.

paultheroyal "on paper" - he has a decent 6 games to start with....

12 points+ anyone?

If he gets 0 points in the 6 games does he go?

Give him 8

Given how this has gone down I hope Bowen goes full troll mode and starts Gunter as right back on Saturday. Sure its particularly uninspiring, but isn't the Reading way to give new players and manager at least 45mins of their first match before the motivational booing starts? Has my full support - ...

Why aren't supporters allowed to be concerned about this appointment? There are many things that are valid causes for it. Im bloody concerned I can tell you. Im struggling for positives. I just hope the above comments are true because at the moment my head is telling me this is heading one way. Pro...

The level of negativity to this is breathtaking. 1. No-one on here (one potential exception) will have any idea how much MB was involved in the upturn in form either last season or at the start of this. 2. No-one on here will have the slightest notion as to how successful or otherwise his ideas wer...

Mark Bowen has a wealth of experience. To say he is in-experienced is utter nonsense. He has been part of a management team at some of the best clubs in the country or more established clubs. He will now know what works, does not work. He will have his own style. His views may well of been supressed...

scumbag Twitter virgins losing their collective minds as if we announced Adolf Hitler as manager.

Let me guess.

Mafff?

Is he related to that LORD CKS - good grief - I actually feel sorry for the bloke.... (well I don't, but have a word mate seriously)

Im quite intrigued by how his first pressers and teamsheets are going to go. Will Baldock, Gunter, McCleary be back in? Why did we sack Gomes particularly? How much of an influence did he think he had last year? Dellor already out to stir the pot - that's his job perhaps, but Bowen is not going to ...

Obviously I wish him well and I offer the team my full support..but I feel like this is very bad news. Anything that's not relegation would be a sucessfull season now. Same. But I think now is the time for us as a fanbase to ready ourselves for the real prospect of relegation. I mean, who doesn’t f...

Twitter virgins losing their collective minds as if we announced Adolf Hitler as manager. Agreed, utter embarrassment. Having a scroll now I see.... "protest march" "booing on announcing his name" "turning their backs upon his entrance" "off to support a non leagu...

The Enfield Royal71 I confrim OMA knows the same people (maybe) as me. PTR does aswell.

Leave me out of your quote.

Think me and you know the same person, Paul. Only wish they would have told me Bowen was a dead cert when he was 25/1!

Yeah, this news was never on my radar.

If Bowen is appointed it's a complete and utter effing joke. The guy has been a serial failure as Assistant Manager to his mate Mark Hughes. Furthermore, as Sporting Director IMO he's every bit as much to blame for the poor start to the season as Gomes and his coaching team. He then compounds that ...
