Confimred new owners of Raeding Footbal Club

[SPARTA]

Royal Blu Sox I hope

White!

AZ balance sheet:

Positives:

- Single-handedly financed the signing of all time footballing great Jason Roberts.
- Signed an exciting partnership with Marussia F1, a team so poor that they’d lose a road-race around Whitley to a Ford Capri.

Negatives:

- Sacked one of the best and most popular managers this club has had.
- Saddled us with Nigel Adkins.
- Saddles us with high-earning crocks like Drenthe and Bridge.

Cheers Anton, it has been.....rubbish, mainly.

By the way, I've seen council plans for when the Madejski Stadium was built and JM got permission to build a Batcave underneath the hotel. Could this mean the mystery investor is Bruce Wayne AKA The Batman?

We'd see a small spike in ambitious crime in the town, like people trying to burn The Oracle down with a giant magnifying glass in space, but petty crime like breaking and entering wearing stripy tops and swag bags will go through the floor.

I cannot believe that all this time I thought Bradman was Australian.

Cuba Gooding Jr

If Cuba Gooding JR is involved in the buyout, expect his Uncle Mick to be involved in the coaching set up somehow.

Wasn't Gentle Ben Canadian?

Wasn't Gentle Ben Canadian?

He moved to Canada when he couldn't get work as an acting bear south of the border

Jonny Fordham has just Tweeted to confirm that Gentle Ben is American.

Anyone who doesn't now have the Gentle Ben theme tune ringing through their head has no sunshine in their soul.

[Todd Margaret]

Is that an exhaustive list of Americans known to the UK or just the rumored ownership consortium?

[Super Kevin Bremner!]

Just looking into the Bradman revelations now, and can confirm for the purpose of this thread, that he is indeed American.

In for the 'Reading YEEEHAAA High 5's'

Jonny Fordham has just Tweeted to confirm that Gentle Ben is American.

Anyone who doesn't now have the Gentle Ben theme tune ringing through their head has no sunshine in their soul.

Should have that as the music reading run out to, with a montage of shots of Mark, Gentle Ben and Henry Boomhauer.
