Re: #SellBeforeWeDai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group

The Football Governance Bill didn't get passed prior to the wind-up of the current Parliament, so we're a but further away from any formal Regulator (and / or being made an early doors Test Case, as Roger Titford reported in the new WSC). Probably a good thing. Labour will resurrect it, with a PM w...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

If an invoice doesn't quote a purchase order that matches one that was approved it isn't getting paid. Unless you operate your company without any sort of accounting / finance software this scam would never work. I didn't do that, even as a sole trader. Auto approval under a certain value still nee...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

Howe's no longer involved in player contracts anyway and from once the club sale is completed, I'm not sure he was ever going to have any day to day involvement in running the club, so apart from the fine, it's a pretty nothing punishment and all seems like a fat waste of time, except for the FA be...

Re: Home shorts colour

Reading FC Women - Probably better with blue shorts, for the same reason England Women don't wear white shorts (google/ask your mum/ teacher to explain it) Reading FC Men - I personally don't mind, as long as it's one of the other. Probably say white is more traditional yet the 106 season wore blue ...

Manager's Car

So what's with the knobby personalised number plate on the managers car? - It's the same one Ince had, which I assumed was because he was a knob and maybe bought it with his success bonus (number place is BONUS with some 1's in it because I assume his bonus wouldn't stretch to one that just read BON...

New Owners Prediction League

Predict the date when the club officially announce new owners, winner gets bragging rights and can falsely claim they were ITK.

You can guess the same date as someone else, but the first person to guess gets all the credit

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Mr Angry
I am beginning to feel the first stirrings of wanting to go again as a result of this season;
Maybe you could warm up by going to some pre-season matches and shouting "Keep in shape" at them?

I wouldn't read anything into it. Compass/Levy contract ran out end of this season and was always going to change regardless.

Womens football is in it's infancy, a massive area of growth. If it becomes half as popular as the mens game then there is big money to be made here for relatively little outlay compared to the mens game.
