Re: NO LONGER A RUMOUR: Jimmy Kebe

West Stand Flash Apparently signing by the end of the week, but our hunt for a Premiership Defender has stalled. OH WHAT A SURPRISE.


JM 'Why are you guys asking me to stump up £2.5M for him when you've got Cisse who is brilliant in that position?' !

Re: "A Team so Starstruck............."

"that they appear more intent on swapping shirts with opposition players than securing points" That is how Reading are described in todays Daily Mail. The Mail concludes that this means that trouble can only be just around the corner. Do they have a point? I understand that Roy Keane proh...

Re: A bit worrying

Scenario 1. Directors Meeting. JM - Nigel, thanks for your detailed business plan showing that we can make a stadium extension viable. Let's look at developing it now. I understand that we will not always fill the larger ground, but there is clearly scope to offer more seats to away fans on occasio...

Re: How we stack up against the opposition in terms of signings

With Little potentially back in March and Doyle/Hunt doing an effective if not brilliant job out on the right wing, then I'd say our first priority is a defensive midfielder. . We will be raving bonkers if we gamble anything whatsoever on Little returning to first team action in March (much as I'd ...

Re: Standing at matches

tbf the stewards tried to implement the no standing in the utd end but its not like its going to work with a stand full of barmies is it... And how many were quietly apprehended in the concourse at half-time and ejected as the club would have us believe happens? And will the club actually carry out...

Re: How we stack up against the opposition in terms of signings

brendywendy i thought the thing about matajovsky was the skill on the ball and the three defence splitting passes he made that oozed class that impressed rather than his ability to run about
think he gave the ball away for their 1st, :


Did he hand it back to them from the bench then?! :wink:

Re: Cisse = God (For The Day!)

SC said he was bought as a midfielder but given that his best performances have been in central defence and he was playing there for Boavista I would rather suggest that SC needs to review that and given our general crapness in that position perhaps he maybe the answer (well at least in the short t...

Re: MOTM....Man United (H)

I think the home support (aka #13) deserve a mention for their performance too. The strong vocal support was picked out for a mention as the Sky cameras panned around the stadium during Match Choice. Despite remaining seated whilst ManU fans were allowed to stand throughout (yes, once again Mr Safet...

Re:

Looked like a composed central midfield playmaker to me. What is amazing is that at the end of a game when everything was moving at 100 miles an hour he was taking his time and picking a pass. Very cool customer! Best thing was that 'taking his time' in his terms was still lightning quick for most ...

Cisse by a country mile. LOL at anyone giving it to Lita, he cost us the first goal and was the worst player on the park. Everyone else did themselves proud, even if Hunt had an off-day out of position, at least he put it in. You really ought to get your eye sight tested and get arrested for those ...

Just why are effing ManU players allowed to show blatent dissent with impunity at virtually every decision that goes against them?!! They are as bad as Cheatski and a disgrace to the game. Not only did the officials completely ignore the dissent but by the end of the game they were actually giving i...

Cisse was brilliant today. Even more so considering he was carrying an injury. According to SC he played at centre back before he came to us but has a preference for playing in midfield. Perhaps we ought to dissuade him from that preference and play him where he is at his best. Likewise some of our ...

I have to say that I think that the man who has been the saviour and the chief architect of Reading achieving their current position in the top flight of football is now the reason that we will slowly slip back down into the championship. If not this season then next. JM has been great for the club...
