muddyfeet Was just doing this, most forums seem to be in disbelief why they chose us



I think one of the posts on the origanal article on the Daily Mail website sums it up nicely. Basically a well run club with a well established and strong management structure, huge potential, next to no debts and a physical infrastructure that requires no upgrading. As i saw an Everton fan state, why buy a club for £40m knowing that you will then have to find another £60m to build a new stadium

Wanting to be their rivals? :roll:

The way I see it it's a one way rivalry. I have nothing against Oxford...

I sometimes even look out for their results :lol:


Have they built the rest of their Stadium yet?

Matt, York Wow £40m for 51%. Why can't these crazy Russians buy Derby County? Based on this evaluation Derby County must be worth £100m. Who are Reading exactly to receive a valuation like that?

Having read through other club's forums, they all assume we are insanely loaded now. Like we are part of the Man C, PSG and Malaga group.

Poor Forest and Derby still don't realise they were only ever successful and seen as big clubs because of Brian Clough.

Recurring theme in all these threads: chairman who won't invest and says it's hard to find a buyer for the club in this economic climate. It all sounds very familiar.

FiNeRaIn Oxford fan:

"Hope so, their average away attendance being over 100 below ours, for the championship, shows how many plastics turn out for home games".

Really does speak volumes, how do we have less of an away following than oxford. :shock:

Sorry to take the thread off course, but as of 7th Jan, these are the average away followings for clubs in the FL and BSP.



So Oxford AND Swindon take more away than us. :oops:

Fair play to them... that's pretty good going. We don't have a big away following that's for sure.

Yes - extra ball boys and extra signs about cars parked at your own risk.

Although we could probably pick that up by a 100 or more at least if we get a relly good run going in the league to challenge for promotion.
