Re: Fair Play!

I understand that Reading threw their toys out the pram and refused to vote when their quest for bonus points if you spend fukk all was denied.

Re: Ian Harte

Here it is; Following a stirring performance for Reading over the weekend which saw Ian Harte provide assists for both of The Royals‘ goals in their 2-1 win over Sunderland, the Louth man has hit out at Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni. Having once again been overlooked by the Italian...

I understand Jimmy Kebe could qualify as English if he wanted to.

Re: Well done McDermott and Hammond - Positive transfer wind

The stats can show anything. I'd argue, from my point of view of course, that WBA, Spurs, Everton and Swansea had strong squads and so haven't been under pressure to spend heavily this season. And Fulham's place at the bottom is wholly due to Spurs (ironically given their total net spend) over-payi...

Re: Well done McDermott and Hammond - Positive transfer wind

Oh well, huh? I just hope that the majority of people will take the same attitude if we go down. But in all likelihood they won't and theyll be that fukked off that we didn't make a proper go of it, with some "Premier Quality" signings that they wont bother going. And I think you're just b...

Re: Well done McDermott and Hammond - Positive transfer wind

That's not about making up stories about bids though, is it? That's a reason the club doesn't want to get relegated. Why would they sit around thinking "oh, those fukkwits on HNA will notch a 12 page moan if we don't look like we've done something. I know, let's say we bid on Thomas Ince"...

Re: Well done McDermott and Hammond - Positive transfer wind

If anyone is appeased by a bid for Siggy then more fool you! Brian admitted in the summer that Siggy was too big for us now and wanted bigger things. I know it his move to Tottenham hasn't been completely successful but has the situation really changed that much that we were now in with a decent cha...

Re: Adam Le Fondre - Article by a Miller

A pre-season friendly at the NY Stadium would be a good way of giving RUFC some of the additional cash they should have got when Alfie came to Berkshire. £300,000 is a little embarassing. BTW, how do you Millers pronounce his surname? We have a local radio commentator down here who alternates betwe...

Re: Adam Le Fondre - Article by a Miller

It says "his goals were a vital part of Reading securing promotion to the premiership for the first time in many years".

His goals were vital but we were in he Premier league in 2008. Not that long ago. But good article nonetheless.

Re: Transfer Deadline Day. Real intel only!

Apparently Samba has only played a handful of games this season and is not match fit. If Soccerbase is to be believed then that's not really the case, although it does indicate he may not have played for 6 weeks, so your comment has validity. http://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=41...

Re: Well done McDermott and Hammond - Positive transfer wind

Considering what we needed and what we got, it's been an entirely mediocre transfer window. Kelly looks solid and Akpan was good in the BRIEF bit of time he played on Wednesday. The chap form Porto was shit and we havent bought an attacking midfielder and if The Pog injures himself collapsing in a h...

Re: RUMOUR - Thomas Ince

Even so (and this is a separate thread in itself) I can't see us losing too many players - Pearce, Le Fondre, Kebe, Federici, Pog off the top of my head... We would still have the makings of a quality Championship side, a couple of signings here and there and we would bounce straight back up And Gu...

Don't worry chaps! The record deal Brian McDermott and Nicky Hammond spent the day working on wasn't a waste of time afterall. They did it!
