RUMOUR - Sparta eye Marek

[rotherwick_royal]

This really would be the last straw.

Relegation at 13/2 is looking a really good bet, might put my house on it

oh my days blud

You say that as if it isn't part of Madejski's grand plan....

This story refers only to a loan deal. There is absolutely no chance of that happening, because there's no obligation on our part and no incentive for us to do it.

Why not? They would pay his wages at the very least.

All depends on the player as well. I've no idea but it could be the same situation as with Fae. If the player wants out and has the potential to disrupt morale if he sticks around then even a loan deal would be preferable to paying him to cause trouble.

[juanpablo]

cant blame Marek if he wants out probably looks around at training in disgust

Oh come on. If we were that desperate to move him on we would try to get a fee for him. I don't think it would be that difficult. Then another club would be paying his wages. There's no value in loaning him out.

Because the other club might want to see him play in their team before parting with a transfer fee. If he's loaned out then the other team pay his wages not us. It still takes him off the wage bill and stops him from disrupting the remaining players. Thats exactly what happened with Fae although I'm in no way suggesting that Marek is a disruptive influence.

"Sparta is one of the alternatives we have discussed with Marek" says his agent.

Fook me. Why would you discuss alternatives? Unless you'd been left in no doubt that, even when fully fit, you weren't going to figure in BR's plans.

It's an absolute disgrace - we're getting rid of everyone. NHunt will be next.

Why?

Because, like a lot of our other players that have left, Matejovsky joined Reading as a Premiership club and wants to play at the highest level possible. He stuck around after relegation but is now half way through his contract and won't be wanting to play Championship football, on Championship pay, regardless of his international prospects.

Agree that we can't afford to be letting all these players go without suitable replacements, but at the same time you have to expect players to be looking around and weighing up their options.

My real concern here is that those players not immediately playing in the first team seem on the outside at least to be frozen out or being given the impression they're not wanted. Rodgers said he wanted a small tight squad and it may well be that he's already decided who is and isn't going to feature in that. It may also be that the numbers are still too high for his liking but its never a good thing to have those on the fringes not feel they are a part of it.

[Royal Lady]

Exactly! When have there been any mutterings that Marek wants out because he wants to play at a higher level or whatever? Same with Harper. The only mutterings we have heard are from Brendan. Then Harper more or less confirmed that Brendan had said he didn't need him and Marek was reported as saying to someone that Brendan didn't want to play him. Can hardly lump the blame on these two players.

Sky Sports -
Sparta Prague may attempt a loan bid for Reading midfielder Marek Matejovsky if they manage to qualify for the Europa League group stage.

The Czech club have been hit by the news that Patrik Berger will be ruled out until the New Year and are lining up Matejovsky as a temporary replacement.

The 27-year-old has fallen out of favour at the Madejski Stadium and could return to his home country to help Sparta with their heavy European schedule.

Metejovsky's agent, Pavel Zika, says that Sparta will be the best option for his client if they successfully qualify for the group stages.

"Yes, Sparta is one of the alternatives we have discussed with Marek," he told deniksport.cz.

"It all depends on how Sparta end up. If they qualify for the group stage, then I will be personally recommending Sparta to Marek, even despite the fact that there is interest in him from Italy and Germany.

"The reason for this is that with Sparta he would have a chance to play regularly in the Europa League as well and could get back to playing for the national team."


How the F' do you fall out of favor when you never get in the game...... Is he lazy?

He has top fight talent & we refuse to play him. Rodgers can piss off with his fat head.

brace yourself

[One Beer is never enough.]

No player is bigger than the club. Unfortunately a club needs players. WTF is going on? Build brick by brick, then hire a paddy with a heavyball to knock the oxf*rd thing down.

Seriously getting worried about the lack of movement into our club, and can't help but wonder why.

[Thaumagurist*]

Did you notice the word "attempt"? He's not gone yet.

Why the f@(k is this on the team board? Didn't you notice that there was already a thread about Marek Matejovsky on the UR&G forum?

I think the answer you are looking for is: Money.

Both Harper and Marek have been told they can leave if they can find clubs. They are two of our remaining highest earners and we want them off the books. Yes it's about money.
It's a sad and desperate state of affairs, and when we're letting so many good players leave in such a short space of time, you understand exactly why the likes of Smith stalled on a move here.
