Since Bowen started he has had a hooneymoon period though. You would expect him to have a good three of four games where the players play better than average, as they have a new boss to impress. Adjusting for that, is it that impressive? It is solid. Next season he won't have a honeymoon period. And...

I thought Glen Little was shit in his loan spell - next season he was unplayable. Puscas needs some real coaching to get him working effectively in the formations we play. He also needs to improve his work rate and movement. I have no idea what we can do with him but I think he can play. We have to...

Nameless

Greatwesternline Also, have Reading ever signed a player from a mainland European club, who went on to be a consistent multi-year out right success story?

The legend that was Uwe Hartenberger of course....

Jimmy “the sock” Kebe

Jesus i'm embarrassed at myself.

Also, have Reading ever signed a player from a mainland European club, who went on to be a consistent multi-year out right success story?

Based on his name alone, this player will be similarly good to Aluko and Bacuna.

Derby have now been charged. Let's hope our £20m passes the test.

Charlie Adam best / most intelligent passer of the ball I've seen in a Reading shirt.

Better than Matejovski. Far far better than Sidwell or Harper. Yes that dates me. I'm fine with that.

Reads great for our great club of greatness.

Old Man Andrews How much?

Pretty sure face value is the rules according to Hobnob.

Though i wasn't born yesterday. Previously i've always bought and sold at face value on here.

Would be very happy to take any spare standing tickets if anyone has any available.

I can pay through direct transfer, paypal, revolut, or cash in hand on the day.

I thought about this long and hard. What about, Ryan Babel playing for Fulham eight years after last being seen in England. Alternatively, Roy Hodgson coming out of the UAE / Viking wilderness to become an established manager again, rising to manage Liverpool and then ENGLAND! A good bit of long an...

We should do everything to shift in Jan, even if it's free.....however if we're stuck with him he may as well be around the squad. He had shown his quality throughout his career before joining us. He's clearly a confidence player who was at the club in the dire Gourlay era. I wouldn't say I expect ...

I quote from Millwall "terrycos said: who clocked the fat 40+ yr old Reading cock in full kit over to our right, not a one off saw him last time we were there..he even put on a kit track top ha ha never ever does that clubs supporters cease to amaze me. Yeah I saw the oxf*rd, surely he needs t...

I support Reading but live in Peckham, should my unborn child be raised Millwall, a walk from our house, Palace, a team that could reasonably provide them with PL joy more often that not, Tottenham, a "big 6" team i notionally say i support to foreign people I meet on holiday who want to t...

What a ridiculous comparison. Gylfi was possibly the best player we’ve ever had. Ejaria isn’t even our best midfielder right now. That might change in the future but right now there’s no contest. +1 Although i assume you're saying Swift is better. Swift's best moments are better. I think Ejaria loo...

tidus_mi2 Has the commentator been told to do a Sean Connery impression everytime he says Puscas?

Like that

Derby did theirs at £80m, we did ours at £20m odd. I think we're in a safer position. Ours has previously been used for music events. £20m seems reasonable.

this appointment is about as uninspiring as when we announced Pardew, Coppell then McDermott were to be our manager. Rodgers excited me, as did Adkins, Clarke and Stam, all shit. Clement was just :|, as was Gomes. I was excited about Coppell as well. I know this is mental, but i actually like watch...

It would be interesting to know who else was interviewed for the job, who else was sounded out but said no. If others were interested, was Bowen doing the interviewing.. Who interviewed Bowen. It feels very shabby to come in in March, and 6 months later have sacked the manager having potentially bee...

Yeah, because the man who took us to a playoff final and then promotion in consecutive seasons was so sought after I understand that Pardew and McDermott were successes. I also understand that Clement, Gomes were not. Bowen is not Pardew of McDermott, he hasnt worked with lots of the players in tra...
