Re: Could we be involved in a relegation battle?

Pointless comparison, 71/72 was the first time we had ever been at that level, we were the big boys in a low league, and did not adapt well, however it was always likely that we would move back to our percieved level, which we did,.

Re: The Great Bus Rip Off

why should a fan have to find a different bus company, he has come to the STAR section of HNA to ask if perhaps STAR could get involved, yet once again gets the old response, why not join and help as we cannot do it alone, and we cannot peruse HNA to see if something is posted on here. Perhaps he/s...

Re: The Great Bus Rip Off

I could no longer afford to be a bus due to a massive hike in the licence fee.

Re: Rodgers needs two to complete jigsaw - from The Chronic

Sun Tzu Just to point out that Hull had the benefit of a brand new stadium supplied to them by their local council whereas we had to fund ours.

Re: Rodgers needs two to complete jigsaw - from The Chronic

I am liking SKB here. We sold a good team, we now have very few left from the 05/06 regular line up, but none have gone on and made a big impression elsewhere, perhaps it was Coppell who was the gelling agent between them all, and got those two fantastic seasons, realistically no one came in that wa...

Re: Rodgers needs two to complete jigsaw - from The Chronic

FFS we also get TV money for this season as well as the parachute cash, £11m would pay for 22 players on 500k, wages could be a problem, but to suggest all the parachute money is for them is bollox.

Re: Could we be involved in a relegation battle?

According to the 2008 accounts there was a large bank overdraft that I understand was recalled when we were relegated and hence less free money from the sale of Kitson than people on here assumed and as the 2009 year has only recently finished anyone telling you the current state of affairs is eith...

Re: Promotion v Brentford or promotion V Leicester?

Small packed terrace end at Griffin Park> big plastic stadium full of plastic Reading fans. Do you truly believe that there weren't many plastics at the Brentford game? I presume by plastics, you mean people who go just to the big / local away games? If our average away attendance at that time was ...

Re: Rodgers needs two to complete jigsaw - from The Chronic

Whats odd is that they got money from Spurs, yet did not then go back for smith at the agreed fee, instead they wents for Ched evans at £3m, an excellent buy IMHO.

Re: Charged twice for tickets!!!

yes he was charged £40 twice, so he bought 4 tickets at £10, and his transaction of £40 was processed twice, meaning they took £80 in error, when it should have been £40.

Re: Rodgers needs two to complete jigsaw - from The Chronic

Can't see us paying that TBH, he will want a 3 year deal, so thats 400k a year for the fee, or 8k a week, and at the end he will be 32 nd quite possibly have no sale value, is that the kind of money we would pay, add his wages and i think not.

Re: Could we be involved in a relegation battle?

Relegation struggle, always a possibility, and if certain players do not come up with the good consistantly then we could easily struggle. We really need the youngsters to come good and step up to the mark as well, if the gamble on youth is wrong we will struggle, as otherwise the squad is quite thi...
