I can believe a contract was put on the table, but I can also believe its not been signed yet

Jonny Fordham @JonnyFordham
Expecting some positive news from #readingfc later this afternoon regarding McDermott's position at the Mad Stad #wolves


:| :?


I got the same message Fordham did, things obviously not quite as straight forward as they seemed but I am sticking with it, a new contract signing will be announced and I will LOL at quite a few of you



Soggy - I think you should ban yourself from here for now. :lol: One is not amused.

I just can't see the logic behind McDermott going to Wolves.

Granted Wolves are a bigger club than ourselves, but he is leaving behind a legacy he could easily finish. We are 3rd in the table at the moment and he could lead us to the Premier League. He could follow in the footsteps of Steve Coppell and easily make himself a Reading legend.

Does he want to be remembered for a play-off final defeat? Or does he want to be remembered for being the 2nd manager to take Reading into the top-flight? He has worked with this club for 10 years and the club is in a very good position at the moment, why would he walk away?

The players obviously respect him and he clearly believes in the squad.

If someone was offering to double your wages for at least 3 years, you're saying you wouldn't consider going?

For money reasons, yes. Footballing reasons, no. Unfortunately it may be all down to money.

Sorry how do you know this exactly? You honestly think they'd give a manager with no PL experience a 3 yr deal? Yeah right!

If he's the man they want, yes. The Wolves board won't be having a conversation that goes 'we only want McDermott if we sign him up on an 18 month deal, otherwise we want Bruce'.

Do you honestly think McD would leave us for a 13 game contract with them then?...........IF he was to go then he would have to have that security, otherwise he's taking too much of a gamble.

All this on the day they proudly announce that season ticket renewals are going out in the post. Yet again somebody is taking the piss out of us. Has SJM finally sold us down the river in exchange for getting his poxy loan money back? Why can't being a Reading supporter be an enjoyable experience !

Brian has allegedly given a lukewarm response to the TSI investment. There might be a too far too fast approach to investing in RFC. This might go against the grain of what he wants personally achieve with the club. Shipping out what is perceived as chaff in the club, again going against the grain. Maybe Brian got wind of there being no contract negotiations for him. He would be within this window soon. Maybe it's all unsettling him and he wants to sound out Wolves to see what is on offer for his development.

Effective hoof ball that is.

Get a grip. We're 3rd. Who cares how we play as long as we go up.
