Tilehurst End have a podcast with Brian Tevreden

Danny Loader is now expected to join FC Porto according to the Mail. 3 year deal worth £1m per season apparently. Good for him, hope he makes it.

Current first team squad then is GK Rafael Walker RB Yiadom Osho Araruna CB Moore Morrison McIntyre LB Richards Midfield Rinomhota Laurent (currently expected to sign on Tuesday) Olise Aluko (presumably someone the club will actively try and get out on loan if not sell) FW Baldock Puscas Joao Meite ...

i) AFC Burybsaid to begging sharing at Radcliffe next season - the owner of Gigg Lane is still trying to sort out n entry for a revived/Phoenix-like alternative Bury up at STEP02 where there may stil be a vacancy - unless the league plug it with some other club. Might prove difficult as I think the...

Season 20/21 will begin on 12 September and be “condensed” so that is completes on 8/9 May with play offs back to their usual place over spring bank holiday weekend. The bad news is that league clubs will continue to face big financial problems with the first month continuing to be played behind clo...

Gunter/ McCleary - writing has been on the wall for a while, both great servants for the club and given their all (despite some rough times that were well documented). Decision to let Teddy Howe go to Blackpool now looks an odd decision as we are short at RB. Yiadom by far our best RB. At the momen...

Signing Josh Laurent next week. A player released by the mighty Shrewsbury Town In the summer. Tbf to him, he's actually not a bad player. Just our record of signing league 1 players lately isn't great. Young and hungry player, just what we need Supposedly beat Stoke, Cardiff and Swansea to sign hi...

Well there you go, he's gone. Horrible to see the club releasing players who have been here 15+ years and still have something to offer while players like Aluko etc are still stealing a wage. Sign of what a mess the club is in. Feel a little less guilty about opting for the ST refund now. Definitel...

Split on this. Seen enough to know he looks the part but also his playing record over 2 seasons is pretty poor (presuming injury again this season?) so would probably edge towards a “no”. Is Alex Fernandez available? Last I heard he was in Spain’s second division so presumably wouldn’t be a great co...

So Blackett, Gunter, Obita, McCleary and Adam have all left the club. Looks like they are trying to hang on to Osho though. https://twitter.com/ReadingFC/status/1286994610653282306 https://twitter.com/TheTilehurstEnd/status/1287003787782230018 No surprises there, wish them all well. Also Reading ar...

Well, if the media are to be believed, and this move does happen, then Reading beat off interest from Stoke, Swansea and Cardiff so there must be some confidence in the guy’s ability at Championship level.

From Despair To Where? James Garner? I'd rather have Jim Rockford.

Or if he comes with a 1970s Pontiac Firebird (in bronze if course)

Where are the Leicester, Sunderland and Newcastle seasons in that poll. How on earth can you put this season’s Leeds anywhere near any of those successes? 2005/2006 Reading would have wiped the floor with this season’s Leeds.

Josh Laurent is on his way in according to the omnipotent J-Low. Money for his wages eh? Which are probably about 5k a week. Peanuts in the modern climate. Pfft. Doubt we fought off Stoke with 5k a week. And it enables Swift to be flogged off for hopefully a massive amount of wonga (well there coul...

I'm all for a salary cap but they can't just introduce one out of the blue in 2 months. It's going to be impossible for us and other teams to save over £20m in wages in such a short time, especially the Premier League teams coming down. Thats what i said on twitter. Has to be gradual or it will for...

Birmingham have retired the no. 22 shirt after Jude Bellingham's transfer to Dortmund :lol: :lol: :lol: https://twitter.com/SkySports/status/1286301988028915712 The comments are glorious. LOL What a rediculous thing to do! And the comments :lol: Wasn’t Jasper Carrott a director there at some point?...

This is my new favourite ever football stat. Just proves his bonkers the championship is Barnsley were in the bottom 3 for every single minute from 15th September until the 91st minute of the last game of the season and stayed up. Charlton were in it for less then a week and went down. Pedant Alert...

To be honest short of Klopp or Guardiola deciding they want to have a real lower division challenge on a pittance there isn’t anyone who I think would get everyone excited. Hughton looks like he’s off to Bristol City and Ainsworth, rightly, I don’t think would want to jump ship sideways after gettin...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-53493960 :roll: Mental, heard a Leeds fan saying on the radio that he felt the club had done the right thing as the bus was parked in one spot. No you utter, utter clown, not having a bus at all was the right thing to do :/ Ah well, covid hotspot for Leed...

All courtesy of the EP staff and seem quite reasonable to me. So debate away... The 5 names listed are Daniel Barlaser (Newcastle) Jack Clarke (Spurs) James Garner (ManU) Emile Smith-Rowe (Arsenal) Sep van den Berg (Liverpool) Further details... https://www.getreading.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-n...
