Re: Madman: Your time is Uppppppppppp

Royal Rother He selects neither who is bought or sold, so any effect on the playing side (positive or negative) is not his doing.

Which is largely the point I was trying to get across when we were discussing Madejski's actual involvement in the club's elevation to the Premiership.

Re: Confidence

At the moment, I have got confidence. The Siggurdson sale is shocking and the worst thing taht has happened to the club since Friday left. Overreaction. The worst thing to happen to the club was the meek, needless slide out of the Premiership But, once a Bundesliga side appraoched Reading with that...

Portsmouth played a weakened team and Fulham scored. That's why we were relegated./quote Cobblers But the courage missing in spring 08 was on the field. That team was well capable of a home draw with Fulham, but when we needed to be lions we were sheep, and we gave them the hope they needed .[/quote...

Re: demonstration

For me, that will depend entirely on how the proceeds of the sale are used. If Brian gets the cash to replace, then I'm cool with it. If we get the "Budget deficit" line, then I intend boycotting a game. if several thousand did the same in a coordinated action, it would send the message ou...

Re: Gylfi is leaving Reading

Why are so many reacting (if this proves true) with surprise? Gylfi is, bar none, the best "home produced" player this club has had in the last 40 years (maybe longer), He is an ambitious competitive sportsman who deserves to be given the chance to play at the highest level, and it would t...

Re: Madman: Your time is Uppppppppppp

Thing is, with no money about, if BMcD was removed, who would want to come in knowing that funds for new players was non-existant? Also, which players would want to come if they knew that there was no visible sign of ambition? That's very pertinent. Competitive sportsmen generally react very positi...

Re: Reading are crap

I was there in the days of no money - demanding Frank Waller out, early 80s - and it goes back to the same old thing - in those days there was no real expectation - if we were top half of div 3 we thought we were doing well. Yes, we've been spoiled by success over the years - but who doesn't want t...

Re: Back from the Game, Northampton Town 24th August

It's been three league games and two carling cup games so far, and already people have the knives out. Why? At what point can they be allowed to come out? 6 league games - 10? half the season? People are just reacting to what they see... I don't think anyone is saying we're dead certs for relegatio...

Re: QPR have bid turned down for McAnuff......

The worse thing I've been saying this for 4 years. It's not just about JM, it's the whole make do attitude that seems to have crept into our fans since the beginning of the end for Coppell.

Re: Back from the Game, Northampton Town 24th August

As disappointing as last night was, if last season taught us anything it was that most others in this league are just as crap as we are. All it takes is a run of good form and you sail up the table. We've still got Gylfi, Jimmy and Tabb and time is on our side. It's not a crap league, it's a very t...

Re: Can tonight help us kick start our season?

I didn't go last night. CBA. Listened in on BBCRB. Like IR, I was surprised at the team selection, but not surprised to see the box office players missing, although Kebe came on in the second half. The overall perormance against a side two leagues below us demonstrates perfectly what Floyd eloquentl...

Re: QPR have bid turned down for McAnuff......

Hoop Blah As highly as you might rate our backup players or centre forwards, it weakens us letting any of our starting XI go.

I second the motion.
