I feel sorry for Holmes. He obviously cares and has given his all. He was probably our best defender last season and two or three ago he was good at RB. And now he appears to have been unceremoniously binned by the club he loves and grew up with after a total second half shitshow, team wide, agains...

Hearing the latest tax bill is due to be paid today, hold your breath time until Friday maybe. It is due today - so are you saying you have heard it will be paid today or just that is is due today but no idea if it will be paid? Every company in the UK's PAYE for July is due today. Its 22nd of the ...

The above has been debunked on Twitter as fake. People have been searching here: https://www.thegazette.co.uk/company/00053703 Nothing like the above shows up Can you show me the debunking? I worked for the Insolvency Service. Something would only show up in the London Gazette once a court order ha...

Slight amendment to the charge - now Regulation 17: HMRC Reporting. This is actually good news. Its possible they've missed the deadline for reporting real time information employer payment summary which falls on the 19th of the month. Would be a bit surprised at HMRC being that quick though. But e...

Also important to remember that under Pauno we were top of the league after 10 games and had a squad that should have been well capable of sealing promotion. Had that happened....i suspect Dai would have thrown a lot more money at a PL starting 11, and we would all be singing his praises. Its funny ...

PAYE gets paid on the 22nd of each month. Given yesterday was the 22nd, its been at least a month since Reading didnt pay their PAYE. HMRC wouldnt have told the EFL about a late payment yesterday, they would have waited till the day after to see if funds had cleared i.e. today. Therefore Reading's i...

The autumn non paymemt of wages was down to difficulties getting money out of Hong Kong and just delayed over the weekend. Nothing like Wigan so max we will get is something suspended. Is there anything on record with the EFL re Dai keeping money in a wages account? The football finance guy Kieran ...

This would be the second year in a row where Bowen has painted an over optimistic picture of the club to the fans. When he told everyone the club mislead the football league with a massively over ambitious player sales forecast in order to not get a 12 point deduction in one year, i did think he was...

Can i just point out the "play when fit" angle is just Hound's speculation. I can't see "play when fit" being a dispute involving the EFL. It would be a contractual dispute about injury status, and not related to money. The charge literally says: Non payment of loan wages. Why no...

How could the EFL do that? The embargo ends June 30th. There is no FFP limitations in L1. If they feel we breached something last season that is yet to come to light, they will have had to punish us against last season, surely. How do you know the embargo ended on 30 June? How do you know there are...

Whilst the EFL ruling was the 2021-22 season, with half the measures suspended until 2022-23 season, the suspended element was enforced. There is this nugget with the ruling: Further action 11. The EFL may re-open any investigation and commence any disciplinary proceedings against the Club if any in...

Sounds like the EFL are trying to restrict our spending even though it would totally contradict League One rules. I suspect the ELF knows it's own rules better than hobnob. I'm just basing this off what Alan Nixon was tweeting last night, who I see as one of the more reliable people, alongside ITK ...

https://twitter.com/ReadingFC/status/1666739343451656193 Here we can witness the Twitter lot calling the social media manager a pcunt because we haven't signed a manager yet. it seems like people on twitter are not very nice Well apparently the club shouldn't be tweeting anything at all unless it's...

Does anyone say Wilder in their head the same was as the boxing hype guy says Deontay Wilder's name?

i do.

They will have to carry out construction work to the stadium presumably to enable this change. They will need more stewarding to prevent away fans throwing things from the upper tier to the tier below. The stadium was designed to hold away fans in a bar concourse separate to other fans. How will thi...

I wonder if Gylfi could be an option. He'd be good at bringing the kids through.
