I worry that given our recent good form and Chelsea's poor form, Brian will go 4-4-2 thinking we can outplay them, only problem being that we'd get smashed 3-0 in the first half for going back to our old ways. Same team as Newcastle I hope, and the same substitutions with the same result. Yep, park...

Pepe the Horseman More chance of Clayton

Hell of a right foot there

southbank1871 Ince is at the Oldham v Liverpool match btw, if that means anything.

So he'll be keen to join Reading then

SydenhamRoyal if we're 2-0 up with 60 played more likely Hunt than ALF.

If we're 2-0 up at 60 mins I'd bring on the swansea ball boy! (I heard he's looking for a new challenge)

SCIAG I would prefer Shorey to Harte, but I think having a settled back line is doing us good.

Yep, Pearce Mapps & Harte were all involved the Newcastle, WH and WBA games, Kelly looked v Newcastle so something seems to be working back there

As much as I would personally like Gylfi to return to RFC I am amazed that some people think that this could actually happen!… he's playing for Tottenham, and Rodgers has his beady eye on him why on earth would he come back to Reading? A. Brian McDermott with money It's not always about Money... A)...

Surely if they were willing to accept a deal in installments Liverpool would have done this a while ago? They don't want to pay 8m for a player they sold for £500,000 Probably not all in one go, but I'm sure they wouldn't be particularly bothered if it was in installments. Careful… you're drifting ...

Lovely hot donuts! I would wet myself with excitement if we got Ince but:
a) not sure he's quite worth £7m
b) we would never pay £7m ever.

Depends what the deal is and if they accept… we were prepared to pay 8m in installments for Asspass but they wanted cold hard cash so gave us the finger.

The only "Proven premier league players" we are likely to get are ones surplus to requirements in lesser teams (who are usually unwilling to sell to relegation rivals), meaning we often have to take a gamble on players from outside the prem to get decent talent in. Players looking for 1st ...

Looks like their sugar daddy has a bitter taste in his mouth!

I'm pretty hopeful for the wednesday given Chelsea's performance at Brentford!
2-1 come on the Bss!

Backbone of the team that did well at Newcastle & V WBA

Federici
Pearce
Mariappa
Harte
Kelly
Leigertwood
Karacan
McAnuff
Kebe
Guthrie
Pogrebnyak

Subs (60+)
ALF
McCleary or Akpan
Then maybe bring on Carrico for a few mins of game time depending on how things are going...

Never, ever in a million years. About 1 in 100 of the rumours on this forum happen......and he's chose relegation battling Reading when theres a hope of joining Liverpool wouldn't he? LOLOLOLOL It's Liverpool that are apparently wavering on the deal… they're not prepared to pay 8m on a player they ...

Oh yeah, I forget we do have a couple of things on the go at the moment, a couple of average centre backs (yawn)… I really hope that's not what BMD is on about.

Listening to BM on Radio Berkshire this evening, I got the impression that he is quietly confident of bringing in 1 or 2 new players. After all our moaning at the end of the summer window, I reckon any business will be done late. I hope we get a new striker, as it sounds like Jason Roberts' season ...

TBM For £8m I'd rather get Sig back

I think he might kindly decline your offer?

Well, we ain't getting Davies. Otherwise, sounds promising.... http://www.talksport.co.uk/sports-news/football/premier-league/transfer-rumours/130126/mcdermott-reading-not-interested-birmingham-defender-190222?
