Re: How impressed are you with BMcD's return to the club?

Now 14 points from the play-offs. The gap widens further. why are you, a Chelsea twat, or any Reading fans still talking about top 6? We are edging on a relegation scrap FFS! 3 wins in 19 league games!! And even Charles Watts admits the number of supporters calling for McDermott's head is growing b...

Re: Too many games

46 games plus league cup and fa cup has been too many games for a while now. It's even worse for 2nd and 3rd division clubs! They don't have the internationals tho, most of which are just friendlies to bring in more money. No but they have the JPT or whatever it's called now. At least we get intern...

Re: Expectations

Even people at the club say they don't know what the Thai's intentions are yet. That can't breed any form of confidence from the top down. They obviously seem very keen to build properties and ice rinks, and take away parking at our expense, yet they seem quite tight-fisted when it comes to making p...

Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

His possession tactics have ruined football. Keep the ball, con the ref that every tackle is a foul, roll around play acting, get a man sent off, score when the opponents are tired of chasing your shadows. Barcelona and Bayern now bore me to death watching it. Thank God we've got Brian McDermottt, ...

3-1
Vydra with the late consolation. Royals slip closer to a relegation battle, but still far enough away to keep loling at Bristol City.

Re: January Deadline Day thread.

Sky Sports stating Williams to Swansea - fee agreed. Now down to player. Big loss if he goes. Wage bill being cut looks like a motivator this window. It wont hurt us though. We're blessed in midfield and we are in yet anothr transitional period, so enjoy the remaining friendlies and look forward to...

Re: Do You Rate Chris Gunter?

McDermott says he wants Gunter to stay.
Gunter says he wants to stay.
No contract offered.
Gone are the days a manager got what he wanted. It's now the owners treating clubs like a game of Football Manager.

Re: RUMOUR - Williams to Middlesbrough

3points give Quinn a run in central midfield instead of Williams. Just as much energy, but probably a touch more class and a better passer / reader of the game. Williams is good, but not irreplaceable IMHO


^ this! Not problem at all with Williams going!

Re: Rumour - Deniss Rakels

As I said, the term'owners signing' doesn't mean much. Is Brian suggesting he has had no say in this deal ? He's never seen or spoken to the player and has simply been told that the guy is coming ? Like Clarke and Hurtado. He only saw a few minutes of him via video. The Thai's brought him in, as we...

Re: Rumour - Deniss Rakels

More interference from the Thai's then. CW confirms BM said this is a Thai signing, not his. As was Ferdinand, Sa, Hurtado. For AZ it was Pog and Williams (?). It's just ridiculous. BM gets judged on results but doesn't have full control of who comes in, or what type of charachter is brought into th...

Another big wage going, HRK to follow this summer (finally). Clearly the focus is cutting the wage bill. Williams also posting pics of him and his agent.

He only ever replies to "his favourites" on twitter. The same ones who constantly message him. Plus he goes on about Arsenal way too much. Like all sports journalists he's tiresome and quickly gets boring. Tbf it's his personal account, he's going to talk about the club he supports as wel...

Re: CONFIMRED - Jake Taylor to Exeter

Thought he'd end up in League One, not League Two. Shame he didn't cut it here, especially when you see the likes of Simon Church rob a living at this level. Good lad. Wish him all the best, and a decent club too, Exeter City!
