Lol @ £600k being 'substantial'. I don't know a lot about Hobbs but I read on twitter that it was a substantial offer. I honestly had £5m in mind. £600k seems like a fairly big offer for a player who has a history of injury (albeit his knee seems to have held up OK at Forest, and no doubt any offer...

I'm guessing part of the reason Kebe has gone on loan is to play under McD again, unsurprising Kebe has joined up with him, and I'm unsure he'd have bothered doing so if it wasn't McD. Clearly enjoyed his football under him, never made himself available with Adkins in charge I don't think once McD ...

I still find it very strange that Anton disappeared the moment he had the baby. It was born in the last week of the transfer window, until that point he was still attending every game, had joined the team on the pre-season tour, and was still talking a good game regarding incoming players. Then sud...

Sorry but for those suggesting Drenthe's contract should be cancelled, you are stupid. He was the only player in our side who in any way had an effect on the game against Brighton and besides Federici for me he was our man of the match even though he came on as a sub which is quite concerning. He s...

We're 9th, one whole point off the Play Offs. It's incredibly unlikely, but with a stonking run (you know like the one from 2 years ago), we could still just about win the league. Let alone get promoted. And even if we don't, it's hardly the end of the year. We can reasonably expect to be in amongs...

1. on recent games Blackman is above Le Fondre 2. No he didn't, in fact I recall him pointing out to Adie that Hector was still on loan until today 3. He hasn't been campaigning to get him out, yes he's had a go about the dreadful performances and some of the unfathomable substitutions and team sel...

Dellors a oxf*rd, clueless tit Clueless? I think you're deluded. How can anyone not like him. He's passionate about Reading, he DOES KNOW a lot about the team and recent history and his commentary is good* *in terms of good - what previous alternatives and current alternatives are there? He is pers...

Just makes me question the itk twitter if he can't even get the nationality right.... David Harris ‏@Handbags82 Ok, Omani name incorrect (source on the sauce!). My bad for not double checking. Omani is on Omani FA board but ISN'T Sk Kalifa, who is UAE. Lead of consortium is on the Omani FA board an...

The US bid seems a lot more ''out in the open' than the Omani deal. Whether that is a ploy to have one play their hand quicker than before. However, we will only be able to have 'loans' again until the F&PP tests are completed and that will take weeks! You mean loan players? Don't think that's ...

Looks like we will probably miss out on him anyway as RFC seem to think that there is no rush to get on and do anything in this transfer window! Apparently they will get around to talking to Southampton 'in the next week or so' to find out what their thoughts on Sharp are. WTF?!! If Adkins wants Sh...

I do think that Adkins has been extremely unlucky this season, and, if we need to strengthen anywhere this window, it's at left back. Bridge managed over 40 appearances for BHA last season, so far he's managed 9 for us. The team has shown it has the most attacking threat with a midfield diamond - th...

Tempted by this, what is the parking like near the ground? There isn't any. Park and ride, the main one being along a closed road. Massive queues for all transport after the game. Not true - there are two bookable car parks, one in the University and the other back along the A27 towards the A23, be...

It's not 15 million per season , pretty sure it's 20,000,000 - 20,000,000 - 10,000,000 - 10,000,000 What is our wage bill right now do we think? Very crude estimation would be 10k per week average for 35 players = £18.2m Coaches & Management = £2.5m Or am I overestimating ? If so, the parachute...

The bulk of this squad is still the one which won the Championship a couple of seasons ago. I've read this a few times in a number of threads, but people must have extremely short memories. Take the team that beat Southampton away in the promotion year.... Feds - still here. Cummings - still here P...

When is Hector available after his recall?

Has the thought crossed anyone else's mind that Antin isn't necessarily finished at the club? It's been interesting to see how a lot of people have taken the SJM interview and focused on the "not got access to Anton's diary" element, but have missed where he said "I'm not concerned a...
