Re: “ Sell before we Dai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group v2.3b sponsored by Sports Direct Tennis Ba

Mid Sussex Royal The statement SBWD & STAR put out with the meeting minutes pretty much contradicts everything Pang is quoted to have said in the meeting....odd.


Not at all odd if he's the devious lying bastard that some of us always expected him to be.

Re: Parking

Another option. Holiday Inn (Reading South), Basingstoke Road. A tenner to park. A mile walk to the stadium.

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I'm not convinced a coalition of explayers as owners is a good idea. The more people it involves the more possibility of fallings out and pulling in different directions. Yeah they know football, but how well do they know business management and running a club? It seems to have worked pretty well f...

morganb Via Twitter -

There is a letter of intent published to buy the club by a potential new owner. #readingfc

(Apparently originally from BBC radio Berks)


Hope it's true but it came via Mick Gooding. Was it him or Glen Little who previously announced they'd heard a debt had been paid when it hadn't?

It achieves nothing. We should take a leaf out of Southend's book and protest outside his mansion, or perhaps that exclusive Mayfair club he likes to be seen at. Yes, fully agree.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Eastleigh (a)

Humiliated on national TV thanks Reading. The lack of quality apart from the keeper who should have done better with the winner. I just hope the players are as embarrassed as I am feeling now. Pereira tried to move forward to smother ball at forward's feet but the shot was slipped between his legs....

Anybody getting bored of waiting now? I hate to say it but 50 years on, I'm now starting to get bored of Reading FC and English professional football in general. And just to make things worse, I'd forgotten how Leicester were seemingly able to buy their way out of EFL FFP trouble. https://www.thegu...

Re: Potential New Owners

Was getting a hair cut yesterday and in my barber's words (a Liverpool season ticket holder), Ashley can turn shit into cash. Reckons he'd get us back up the leagues then sell us for a skipload of profit. Seems it's only Newcastle fans who don't see it. All thinks being equal, he would be the only ...

Who is Lord Treeby? Does he have money, or just a fancy name? He's a Reading fan, been active on the hashtag today and is at the training ground. I'm sure it's Jason Treeby who, IIRC, used to be on the old RoyalMail email group for Royals fans. Probably been on/is on here too. The very impressive h...

So sad, I remember when Reading and Watford were literally (many) leagues apart, I never dreamt I would see them sinking this far down. Can't even partially blame the EFL for this one. The rapid demise of the women's team is entirely...

Re: We will survive this won't we?

I came to RFC late in the game. My excuse? I grew up in Essex and didn't move to Reading until I was 19. As a child I followed Arsenal and it took me a little while to turn. So I've only been supporting RFC since the late 80s and whilst it's not been all uphill I haven't really experienced some of ...

Pretty sure we've been saying that about squads for most of the last few seasons. Usually turns out the squad also wasn't good enough. Agreed it is both the manager and players that aren't very good. Watching us last night against a team that sacked their manager for being mid-table and with the sl...

Knibbs has got away with criticism but honestly what does he offer? He couldn't finish inside of his missus let alone any of his goalscoring chances. He doesn't score or assist anywhere near enough for the advanced position he has. Knibbs should be dropped for Mukairu. What concerns me most about K...
