Speculation Dwight Gale

[RFCSPACE]

Would he be better than Samuel? Never heard of him tbh.

Next summer we will lose Pogrebnyak, and Roberts and Hunt are frees. It's not a question of is he better than Samuel, it's more is he good enough to be part of a striker foursome here next season.

[Royal91]

He had a good game against Cardiff last week and he's got some pace.

As were going down, why not!

[melonhead]

and now youy get to the crux of the super plan


anton didnt have the money to invest 30-40 million this summer. so he got promotion on the cheap, did the prem on the cheap so he could go down and get the parachute payments which he will then use to build a team capable of winning the championship AND staying in the prem


genius

[SCIAG]

I hear he's being pursued with gusto.

I love how grumpy Reading fans who hate losing start making up bullshit conspiracies. Whatever, melonhead.

This falls down when you remember that the parachute payments are much less than the money you get for being in the premiership even now, no matter next year, and exist purely to help manage down excessive wage bills from the Premiership. It really does not give us money to spend!

[Lovely hot donuts!]

And as for this Dwight Gale.
NO
Just NO.
He was playing for Bishop's Stortford last year! He would be murdered in the premiership.
Why don't we wait till we are relegated till we buy for relegation?!?!?

[SCIAG]

I think we should wait for this to all blow over. I hate to see where we'd end up if we tried to use our parachute payments on Gale.

Chris Smalling played for Maidstone United a year before playing for Man Utd

im neither grumpy, and nor do i hate losing. as a long standing fan of RFC, its the default position. the last ten years have merely been a statistical blip.
it was a joke

But harsh to ignore the season he had at Fulham...

[SCIAG]

I'm blown away by the attitude of some in here.

[SCIAG]

....he scored a cracking goal against bolton......

I heard it was a bit of a lightning bolt, there was thunderous applause, Bolton's defence looked like they had just survived a hurricane.
