A pope got chosen quicker than we are choosing a manager...

successfully managed Barcelona b before taking over Roma where he did a reasonable job last season. He has connections at decent clubs in Europe and could potentially sign players like michu etc... Or if he can just attract a few Barcelona rejects! comparing him to other managers that have been ment...

Some great football, no panic, no crazy hoofs and no stupid runs from mcanuff. Hope we can play like this when we play weaker teams

Sorry if anyones suggested this but what about Mick Mcarthy?

assuming everyone is fit and ready... Lets go out and play some proper football and go and win 0-0! ---------------------Fed------------------------ --Kelly-----Pearce-----Mariappa-----Harte-- ---------------Caricco-------Akpan------------- --Kebe-------------Guthrie---------------Mcleary ----------...

I know im going to get hate for saying Di Canio might have the right character to inspire and demand the best out of this lot of players that we have. Brian was not good with big personalities in the squad, since he was a nobody to the new players and didnt command respect. A big personality like D...

Crawley Away!

Good thing we didn't sign a class premier player like Arshavin as this would of caused disruption in the team, as he wouldn't of had the fight in a relegation battle like our players are showing week in week out and he would of got us relegated... oh.

We should bring in Adkins or whoever as soon as possible, as this would allow them time to settle in and asses the squad before next seasons promotion push.

If we have real premier league ambition we have to change the philosophy of the team and that starts at the manager. We need to adapt a style of football that is effective in the premier league and sign players accordingly. The McDermott years have been great but he has taken as far as he can and ne...

Hi sneijder14 - I really enjoyed Istanbul when I visited and would like to go back. I am not huge on turkish delight, although had the best stuff in Istanbul, but I do like Baclava and loved that rice pudding type dessert you have - what is that called? The rice pudding is called "sutlac"...

lots of hate for this from leeds fans on twitter calling us scum ect ect Since when did Leeds become the moral compass of football? the same leeds that attacked a footballer last year, cause loads of trouble where ever they go and think breaking Karacans leg was good since he was associated with Ga...

If only we could get the mad stad into this kind of atmosphere, we might actually scare the other team, and start winning stuff...

This might be the only time i can put my turkish in to use being half turkish... The artical basically says; "Galatasary have agreed terms with Reading to send youth players from Galatasary to Reading for development. Galatasary and Reading with work together on training and bring up new player...

Does anyone know how many we took up there?

We have a had bid rejected for Dean McDonald of Macclesfield (From a reliable source). Age 26, scored 5 goals in 26 appearances last season for Charlton in league 1 and played for Arsenal Youth... Mcdermot link?

Royal91 Demba Ba found the humorous side of it.

The Sun claiming its embarrassed the club. NOT A BLOODY CHANCE!

The Sun are just embarrassed they ran a story out of nothing... like they usually do

Low Risk as i doubt he would cost a lot but got the potential to be a major signing for us. Would be an excellent signing.
