Franchise FC

Franchise FC Given the hundreds, if not thousands of managers, to be able to name but a handful is testament to the fact that managers get sacked, it’s what happens to the vast, vast majority

Oh, and Terry Neill got sacked by Arsenal
And Lyall by West Ham

And Ferguson by St Mirren.

Chelsea granted permission by Leicester to speak to Maresca, whom they will apparently offer a 5 year deal - which they will pay up in full when they fire him next year. Leicester will apparently get 10m in compensation. Chelsea clearly very impressed by his side nearly choking the most nailed on p...

couldn't give a shit about England I'm more concerned with Reading FC. Seriously? I'd rather see the takeover go through than England win the Euros; it's existential. But I'd rather see England win the Euros over promotion from L1, or even to the Premier League. I've seen promotion, it was good and...

Glad city lost I absolutely detest their football and I’m not a fan of Pep.

I’m liking Martinez a lot, He’s my kind of footballer, committed, angry and aggressive - great stuff.

Some seriously horrific haircuts on display out there.

Snowflake Royal Ah yes, when I noticed it was you I was quoting I knew I'd get some sort of pathetic response.

Here’s a tip, don’t respond.

Sorry leon, you don’t get to determine what I say, to whom or when.

Hard man Ian.

It's this system which has greatly benefited Reading, picking up and developinh the likes of Sigurdsson and Olise, and getting substantial money for the likes of those young Academy players who recently moved on before they got a single minute of football. Bigger clubs always take players from smal...

Which yay for England, but doesn't adequately compensate clubs like Reading, and tbf we will have done it to other clubs at lower categories too, for the players actual potential based on their achievements at youth level. couldn't give a shit about England I'm more concerned with Reading FC. Serio...

The academy should probably be scrapped completely whilst we remain at this level. Thanks to the awful Elite Player Performance Plan we already lose promising youngsters to bigger category 1 clubs. There's no hope of keeping them at category 2 or lower sadly. Tbf, EPPP has helped produce players fo...

4 the other week m8!

No wonder your goal difference is so shit

I offer an olive branch and this is what I get in return

What made you so angry, old man?

You’re getting far too sensitive in your advancing years. You need to lighten up

Pep has made football really boring to watch over the last 10-15 years

You certainly get goals with Ten Hag!

From Despair To Where? Boo.

Leeds could play a team of convicted paedophiles and I'd cheer on the paedophiles.

Spurs fans are on a hiding to nothing anyway Lose, end up in a competition (EL) your squad is probably more suited to anyway, banter received for it being "Spursy", noone will remember it a year from now Win or draw, banter received for handing a trophy to your rivals until the end of fcu...

And United have been very canny in identifying this early on, so have ensured they have form where, if they do lie down and die v the Arse, no-one will think it unusual or even question it. :lol: :lol: Unites fans will console the selves with “At least we’re making it more difficult fir City” Witho...

Dare I say, Keys made a decent point (although it coming from him is a bit hilarious). Pundits are becoming way too matey and banter-y nowadays. It also risks comments like Carragher's that cross a line. I find all the japery a bit cringeworthy. Give me interesting analysis, not pub banter between ...

Following up on previous Companies House observations, it looks like new Articles of Association have just been added to the Club’s page - https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/00053703/filing-history Could be nothing, but seems incredibly unlikely it would be anything ...
