He's a great goalkeeper. If the only goalkeeper you have to compare him to is Simon Sheppard.....[/quote]

Now there's a name to strike fear into the hearts of Reading fans of a certain age, old Beetroot bonce himself.

As far as Green goes, wasn't it one of his cock ups that got Brizzle a point and gave us promotion on that glorious night in April? Maybe we should just sign him for the LOLz and then loan him out to the likes of Wigan, West Brom and QPR so they are guaranteed to drop some points next season? :D

But with a clause in the loan agreement that says he MUST be played against us....

That's a good point. How many clubs are they allowed to play for in a calender year? Couldn't we just leave him in the away dressing room so they think he's their own keeper?

lame journalism, obviously clueless chelsea supporter

why would he sign for us when he was already supposedly at a bigger club

why would sign him when we have 2 decent keepers

why would we sign him he let in 7 (should have been 8) goals in 2 games against us!

He wasn't shown the door at WHU. He left because he thinks he can get a better deal elsewhere. It won't be with us.

And let's face it,how confident did people feel with him between the sticks during that recent England friendly? It kind of emphasised the point that this is one area, Hart apart, where England aren't exactly blessed at the moment.

Green to Reading? As the Cockney rhymers would say 'Are you 'avin a bubble?' :roll:

I did read that he signed a two year deal at QPR. Probably took a few minutes for him to sign as he fumbled on the floor with the pen. :D

That really is :shock: . He's a very average keeper. I can't see much in the way of improvement letting Kenny go and replacing him with Green.

I am a West Ham, fan and have no problems with him wanting to leave compared to most of the foriegn keepers in the Premiership I'ed agree that he is average but TBF I think you could probably say that for most of England's keepers - QPR, paying £50k p/w is typical of the kind of silly money that club can now pay and quite honestly I don't see a move to QPR is a step up but a step sideways as they will probably again be fighting another relegation battle.

very true - makes you wonder why all the 15 other clubs out side the big 5 even bother to sign any one... :lol:
