Re: Reading FC Womens World

I expect the women's team to be scaled back/scrapped now we've been relegated I really hope you are wrong. It would be a very bad move and look for a club that claims to be fully inclusive and family oriented. I was right about this. Very disappointing but not overly surprising they're going part t...

Re: Season Tickets 23/24

I bet some fans will buy season tickets to have a shot of tickets for Oxford away

Snowflake Royal
RG30 Any hold up will be down to the owner.

I hate the prick, but this has a pretty big whiff of unfounded guesswork.


If the owner costs us a good appointment we need to protest to get him to sell up

Re: Rival Watch

Latest statement is that Wigan have now been sold. To someone. Not clear who. Nothing their owner says can be trusted, this happened shortly after 2 directors stepped down as they felt their position had become untenable. Wow, they have an owner who talks. What next? Silent owner >>>>>>>>>>>>>> an ...

Re: Rival Watch

I think it's very likely Wigan will drop to league 2 this season. The EFL are a disgrace allowing these people to own football clubs

Re: Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

I think if we sign any highly experienced (aged 32+ players) it should be in midfield, not up front. Defence looks ok, I'd be surprised if we sign another defender. Hopefully Mbengue renews! This squad really lacks in a few key areas, resolving these will see us up there in the league. 1) Pace, we s...

Re: The dedicated Chris Wilder thread

This is dragging on too much now. Hopefully this is done and dusted this week. Like others have said, maybe the hold up is Wilder looking to confirm who his backroom staff may be (fingers cross that's the case.)

Re: The dedicated Chris Wilder thread

It’s only 3 weeks to pre season training so they better hurry up! Why? That's 3 weeks before any serious contact time with players. Contracts don't run out for weeks yet in terms of transfers, and we have Bowen, Carey and co to manage transfers anyway. Could take another couple of weeks and cause n...

I'm sure when the manager is confirmed we'll be looking at players like him.

Re: About the Third Tier

I watched them play at Brunton Park in 2016. Remember not getting back until about midnight as my train to Euston ended up being an hour late That was not against Reading We last played them in 83 in fact we have only played them 10 times in our history! I watched them play Accrington Stanley. It f...

Re: The dedicated Chris Wilder thread

Yeah exactly. I'm in the give him 2-3 years unless we're near the bottom again which is unlikely as the teams in the bottom half of league one are really poor. It's a bit frustrating the league looks weak in a way because a lot of our fans will expect top 6 but call for Wilder's head if we don't.

Re: The dedicated Chris Wilder thread

Hopefully just sorting out the details and announce it early next week I still think it all feels very unlike us IF this happens, identify (hopefully) a very good candidate at a very important time having just gone down to league one, and get him on board and in good time for next season. I know Tw...

We should get Sam Smith back. Had a good season at Cambridge and knows the club. I'm sure he'd jump at the chance.
