Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I don't know whether it was more civil back then or people are just more prepared to call shit out now. That Spacey "gaylord" comment being a case in point. I think if someone posted that now, plenty would tell him to fcuk off with the homophobia. I also remember SROT being an obnoxious b...

Re: England - the future....

Winston Biscuit There I was chuckling at the GK names and completely misses that former Royal Luca Fletcher was in the squad

Doing alright - 12 appearances for Citeh U18's, 8 goals 2 assists. Wonder if we have a sell on clause.

Silver Fox The defenders look like someone doing a bad job of Latin conjugation


:D :D And I can still conjugate it, having not thought about it in the last 50+ years. Quite a thing the human brain.

Re: Ex Players

Dom Hyam (skipper) took the 5th penalty and missed v Newcastle last night.

Seems to have had a decent career since we let him go.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Portsmouth (a)

Last time I went to Fratton Park Pompey had a young Michael Thomas on loan from Arsenal playing at full back. Looked a bit useful! (Just checked it was 1986 :shock: )

Re: The generic transfer thread

interesting listening to Darragh MacAnthony this morning on a podcast talking about transfers. I personally never realised just how far back sell on clauses went. I think its quite openly spoken about that the previous 2 clubs will often benefit from add on fee's, but he said if Ivan Toney is sold ...

Re: I've lost count - Embargos, HMRC Payent defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

So I decided to take a quick look at a few other L1 clubs and the coaches named on their Who's who? Page. I looked at 5 or 6 clubs of different sizes and in terms of named coaches for first team, we are listing, on average 2 or 3 more coaches. Bolton were an anomaly but they list their Strengthenin...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (a)

How was Azeez's goal? What were the two we conceded like? Caught Smith by luck just checking in now and then. I missed both their goals, just got the replays. I think their second even RoyalsTV actually missed too. Their first, after a period of pressure. I can't remember it enough to comment but i...

Re: Confirmed - Ejaria gone

Obviously no one knows the full story. I hope he manages to sort himself out (or whatever was going wrong) and finds success elsewhere. I remember reading this book by an ex-scout who said that when looking at young players you had to really investigate their background and personality. Because the...

Re: Potential New Owners

Apparently close to signing exclusivity with Genevra associates - James Earnshaw So I''ll ask the naive question - what's the incentive for a Hedge Fund to purchase a League One club? It's not for community spirit... Uh oh! https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/significant-reading-fc-takeover-update-em...
