Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

I'm half of the opinion that Dai doesn't care what happen s, 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...

John Madejski's Wallet I'd piss myself laughing if Dai agrees to sell to Coughig, who then goes on to fail the FPP test


Why?

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

I think the one you refer to was the one I did a few weeks back - https://youtu.be/PuW8acbuNu0 Couhig came across as someone who knows what he is doing. I can imagine we would scale back academy operations but within reason as not to lose Category 1. Once promotion is achieved then he will increase...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Yes, I dont see them not letting us in the playoffs if we finished 6th and the deal has not gone through by the end of the season. Provided the deal is still 'progressing' of course. They could potentially use the play offs as leverage to speed up the deal. Personally i don’t think they’d let us ta...

Re: Playoff home semi and Are You Listening festival

Afternoon Nobbers. If (when!) we reach the playoffs in 6th place then our home semi will be on Sat 10/5 at a non-specified time (according to the EFL website) And if we win then some Nobbers may fancy a drink in town. But that is also the day that Are You Listening takes place in Reading, from midd...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

The only way for Reading FC to move forward is for Dai to be gone. The announcement by the EFL of the granting of the extension enabling Dai to complete a sale to 22/4 is a positive step to seeing Dai gone, as it strongly implies there is a genuine impetus to selling the club; after all, if there w...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Dim is saying the full £12m escrow has been proposed, if that`s rejected we`re done. That wasn't what Rob told me yesterday evening. Unless something has changed today, which lets hope it has and what he says is correct, then we are waiting for Rob to review the deal. Rob corrected me when I sugges...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

blythspartan I think we’ll be saved tbh. Hopefully by Platek, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Couhig ends up owning us.

If not, at least this oxf*rd nightmare will be over and I will look forward to visiting some new grounds with the Phoenix club.


It might be the great reset we need!

Who Moved The Goalposts?
Brogue Got to say I think it was the right decision by the ref


If they did that consistently week after week, there would be 20 red cards a week.


Or a lot more footballers getting on with the game as they should do.

Re: Promotion thread 2024/25

morganb 10 games left
2 points outside the play off places

Based on how Reading perform against the better League One teams, if we make the play offs then we'll win them


Reading and playoffs, you know the outcome.

Re: Opposition fans back from the game - 24/25 page 225 onwards

The Wrexham forum is brilliant! So much so they’ve opened a second thread to complain about how they need to sack everyone and fold the club. Shouldn’t have to mention they’re in THIRD only by goal difference! :D Well, that's our season over and done with. Night lads. That's me done. I wonder if th...

SouthDownsRoyal Free hit really. Can’t see us getting anything but anything will be a bonus.


we're chasing the playoffs - how can it be a free hit? They're not 90s AC Milan *

*we'll lose obvs


In theory we are chasing the playoffs but surely no one really thinks we will achieve it?

Re: #SellBeforeWeDai Action/Inaction Group

I think it's just because we were actively attacking when the 18th minute rolled around. I think the fan base know there is a petition by the Reading MP that has hit over 10,000 signatures which will sort all our problems so no need to protest now. On today 1.30pm, Westminster Hall debate, parliame...
