Re: Reading failing to invest

10 mill for 1 player in my eyes is big money especially for Reading But why wait to the end of January? At the start of the year Gylfi was just about making the Spurs bench, maybe we would have had a better chance. As good as Gylfi is, why only him? I go back to my comment that Brian was never looki...

Re: Reading failing to invest

Does no one remember the Football Focus interview with AZ when they did the programme from the Mad Stad? He said then that money was available. He ain't gonna say how much, is he! Then you get clubs inflating players values. Brian has never been in the big money spending league, it just wasn't on hi...

Re: Mcdonut (sorry Brian) out Di Canio in......please

if we and the russian think we can move on next season we need to sign premiership players and we need a manager who can attract these players. Adkins, Curbishley is not that man. We need to splash the Roubles on a man who can move us on. At the moment that man is not available but in the summer he ...

Re: Life after Pog

I spend every game feeling sorry for this guy as ball after high ball is sent flying over the top over his head, leaving him the opportunity to do little more than get his head on it and knock it forwards to no one or miss it and lose possession a split second sooner. In 20 years of watching, I've ...

Re: Pogrebnyak...?!!

I agree with him!!

I think he is confused by a lack of game plan, lack of midfield and worried about getting his head taken off by one of Legsofwood's hoofs! :shock:

Last night a couple of times when the ball was played to his feet he looked more effective!

Re: 6+ Goal Games

Walsall 6 Reading 0. 1st Feb 1986

The season we won the 1st 13 games on the trot. A record at the time.

All I remember was taking the piss out of boring Brummies in a local pub before the game and not going back afterwards!! :oops:

Re: Guthrie reception thread/poll

I have no problem with Guthrie at all. I have a problem with how he's been managed though. A player of his ability should be in the side. His problem is he bites too easily, but I'd also have a massive problem if a useless kunt like Leigertwood was getting a game ahead of me. Get behind him, and if...

Big Foot, do believe I was in that corporate box with you at Leeds!

Couldn't believe how many of Leeds 'care in the community' were sat in the seats in front of us. They were hilarious!!

Re: Official Deadline Day Thread......

Why buy on the last day of the window?

Panic buys at inflated prices in many cases!!
