Re: Pre-Season, my thoughts

I agree with a lot of what you say. But I think we may lose a few more players before Sept 1. I asked Ladbrokes for odds on us losing both Norwood and Gunter before the end of the transfer window and they wouldn't give me odds.....so add Williams and Obita to that and I think at least 2 will go. But...

Re: Strangely optimistic about next season.

It's true, there are fine margins in the Championship. An improvement could see us fly up the league and challenge for the play offs. On the other hand, if we take another step backwards we will fall out of the division and be heading for League One. At the moment, it looks to me like we are probab...

Re: New manager odds

Ian Royal If it is Stam in the next few days so much for taking a robust and careful approach to appointing the next manager.



As if you have any idea about the approach the club is currently taking.

Re: McDermott Sacked (AGAIN)

Denver, Ian Royal is making a stand because he's furious at the way the club is being run at the moment. I feel exactly the same way. Don't suddenly get on his back and say that he has suddenly stopped supporting the club. We have to show our dissatisfaction in whatever ways that we can. The curren...

Re: New manager odds

What are the new manager odds, on whoever we appoint, being a better manager and getting better results in his first 6 games than the last 6 games under MCD? On doing better than McDermott's last six games? Very favourable. On being a better manager or doing better than McDermott would have done? N...

Re: What have you done to express your feelings about the way the club is being run?

Sent the club a complaint asking to cancel my ST renewal and voicing my disapproval. Will think about whether to renew my RP subscription when it's up in October.

Re: McDermott Sacked (AGAIN)

I think it incredibly unlikely he was their choice though. He's have been recommended by the old guard, probably a little hastily. We could have taken a little time back then to find a candidate, see who we could have got. Instead we hired Brian immediately, when he might not have been the best opt...

Re: What have you done to express your feelings about the way the club is being run?

I have renewed my season ticket as I am a fan of RFC and always will be. I will also the support the 11 players that cross the line to start the first game of the 2016-2017 season. Yes I moan, yes I am concerned but having seen the team in the old Div 4 and still supported them on dull wet evenings ...

Re: McDermott Sacked (AGAIN)

And yet the most important stat you ignore... 9 points from 39 - 9 points from 13 games....= awful, relegation, backwards.... +1 The only redeeming feature to the end of the season results might have been had we gone out in a blaze of glory - attacking football, passion, being first to 50:50 balls,...

Looking at this, why is anyone surprised he got the sack? He should have expected it. http://www.sportinglife.com/football/championship/table/form And before the apologists come on the board and say it wasn't his team, give him time etc, look at Rotherham. The only thing in my mind the Owners have g...

Re: McDermott Sacked (AGAIN)

The "it's not his team" doesn't really cut much ice. Seems little point in having football managers at clubs any more . Might as well ask the fans to pick the starting 11. Agreed. If they are as poor as McDermott then yes. But thankfully many have far better records than he does. And that...

I don't know what the all the fuss is about.

Nice bloke but his record at Reading in the last 54 games he was in charge was that he won just 11.

The sort that make you play a diamond formation week in week out that clearly didn't work? or the ones that make you recall a player from loan only to leave him on the bench while you sub on a player who is leaving? or maybe the ones that mean not using youth players that could be available? or pos...

Is there a single thing to be positive about, really? RFC deserve all the mocking that's coming their way. Agreed. One can only hope that at the cost of feeling like we support a honourable, rational club this is just a sign of some owners with a huge transfer kitty for rebuilding t team, not being...

Re: Pre season tour

Shame. I guess the decision will be proved right or wrong when we win/lose our first 6 games. You can already hear the excuse that it takes time to bed new players in.......
