Re: BFTG - Huddersfield (A)

A Terriers fan here again not to rub salt into open wounds but just say we weren’t great by any means but some of the derogatory comments on here about our performance yesterday are unbelievable. I know football is all about opinions and thank goodness for that, however to describe your inept displ...

Re: 2019/2020 accounts analsyis - from STAR

I was thinking about this the other day but couldn't the FFP rules be more flexible? Say a club wants to buy a player and the overall cost of the player, transfer + value of the contract is £10m, why shouldn't the owner be able to just inject £10m directly into the club? If for whatever reason the ...

Re: Al Jazeera Bombshell about Reading FC?

Fascinating to imagine where we would be if not for the money of Zingarevich, the Thais and the Dais. Madejski sells to someone who wants to own the club but insists upon it remaining self-sufficient. Best case scenario is probably Brentford. We could have sold Kebe and that summer and brought thro...

Re: Al Jazeera Bombshell about Reading FC?

2 observations. 1) If true, then the seller has to shoulder some of the blame for not doing proper due diligence 2) ditto fit and proper person's test. Our current predicament stems from this ill fated sale id go one step further. JM sold to any old oxf*rd after he was repeatedly boo'd and harangue...

Re: Tom Dele-Bashiru

6ft Kerplunk Never like it when we loan players who are on their way back from serious injury. Always feels a bit like we're getting used for the player's rehab.

Re: Rumour - Kadeem Harris

We need to start actually selling players people want and do everything in our power to move on Moore. And preferably at least some of Swift, Cabral, Ejaria, Joao and Meite as our probable higher earners. And then we go down and are in even more of a mess. Players are worth far more in a successful...

Re: Rumour - Josh Laurent

Biggest danger is the owner gets fed up with these FFP restrictions, loses interest in running the club and trying to get us up - will be in a world of trouble then - fortunately (based on various interviews such as Paunos recent one with Dellor where he said the owner deserves a statue) he seems t...

Re: Rumour - Josh Laurent

Re: Should Reading drop the Royals nickname ?

biscuitmen is literally the worst nickname in the history of football
the royals isnt that much better and would make more sense if we were from windsor.

Re: Stadium renaming.

LOL at thinking we're getting anything like £10m over 10 years. I'd be happy for you to replace my purely figurative amount with an accurate one. if you can..... It's as likely amount as any really. The equivalent of £1m a year from a company already sponsoring the shirt that only has an annual tur...

Re: If it started tomorrow.

Pauno was hinting at maybe a few more departures, and to be honest i would have no problems letting Moore and Cabral leave. We would recieve around 5 mill for both at a guess in todays market and would free up a significant amount of salary space. We have suitable back up and i would be happy to go...
