Can someone please tell me what this is all about? It seems the club are happy to tell us that we have sold our star assett for six million. But don't want to tell us how much they have wasted on old codgers like Griffin and Harte? What ever it was on Harte it was to much. Are these figures ever rev...
Let me get this straight. We have sold our best and most creative player leading goal scorer dead ball specialist. And with the money we have bought in a 33 year old left back from Carlisle United? I have to say that is great business well done to Hammond, BM and SJM hope you spend your cut wisely.
Snowball you need to get out more. You can put all the stats up you like. Sig was the fulcrum of the team everything good we did went through him name me another Reading player who would have scored that goal on Saturday? Or can bang a goal in from 20 yards like he did WBA in the cup last season. It...
How can the club talk about promotion then sell our best player? This one really hurts more than any other player we have sold. A talent who has come through the acadamey loves the club the town and the fans. Gutted
Bigger clubs than us are struggling financially Derby, both Sheffields etc. The frustration is when you see Bristol City crap ground less support no where near moving to a new ground, not been in the prem. Spending 2 million on strikers (they already have Maynard) and we have to let GR go cus we can...
£250 a season ticket at Wigan and you can't move for empty seats. Yes we are crap but no one is forced to go, if you don't like it buy your Chelsea shirt and stand in the pub every Sunday afternoon with other twats who don't even know where Stamford Bridge is! It's after inept performances like Tues...
If you look at all Championship clubs there gates have been down on the opening two weekends even Derby were well under capacity. Big spending high flying QPR could only muster 12,000 against Scunny.
That was the score the first time I saw Reading play the Cobblers in 1979! That game is hidden in the vaults of what was Southern TV. A repeat would be nice but settle for 2-0
It's only a matter of when rather than if they win the Prem. Just a case of how much they spend for it to happen. Currently 300 million I reckon another 200 million should do it not including agents fees and and abscene wages.
I remember a cracking game at EP in the early 80's we played the great WBA side Regis, Robson, Cunningham, Cantello, Brown etc Big Ron was manager we won 4-2. I also remember a terrible 1-0 home defeat to Wrexham who were 2nd division at the time and we were in the third.
The reason there where no Holigans in SA was they couldn't afford to go. You would have to be bloody thick to spend five grand on a trip and spend it in jail. Come the Euroes if we make it cheap trips to Poland will see the return of the ten German bomber cretins.
