WestYorksRoyal Whatever fixture provides the most money. One of the big 6 away, on the tele, wages sorted for a couple of months by which time the ownership situation is sorted.


Am I right in thinking the sides in European comps don`t enter until the 4th round?


No, that is t'other cup.

Re: Potential New Owners

Apparently close to signing exclusivity with Genevra associates - James Earnshaw So I''ll ask the naive question - what's the incentive for a Hedge Fund to purchase a League One club? It's not for community spirit... Uh oh! https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/significant-reading-fc-takeover-update-em...

Re: Ex Players

Leroy Lita may be adding another club to his bag soon. His current club may soon be no more.

Re: Watney Cup

I was a whipper snapper at the time and went with my cousin. It was a boiling hot day and we were queued up in Norfolk Road, before this United supporter, in close proximity, said "Aye up, here's lads". And then the Stretford End appeared around the corner from Kensington Road. Never seen...

Re: Weekend Football

First one was plain stupid from Tomiyasu but agreed, dreadful call for the 2nd yellow. Don’t quite understand why VAR can’t get involved with second yellows as they are game changing incidents. Don't know if there is an official reason, but what seems logical to me is that if you allowed VAR for se...

Re: The generic transfer thread

Guess there's no chance we were competent enough having set Olise's release fee low that it was on the condition that there would be a sell on clause with whoever he left us for? I'd be pleasantly amazed if we'd even thought of it. Even 10% would bank us a much needed £4m. Read somewhere (on here p...

Yep, only remembered game was on when a mate texted and told me we were 14/1 to win. Worth a punt on our ressies being better than theirs.

No, he'd simply be happy with a selfie with his favourite ex-player - Simon Church

Re: As The Dust Settles - The Sombre Thread

Watched since 1962. I think the problem we have now is that we really don't have a team at all. With all the contracts up it leaves us with probably not more than one or two decent players. We have the under 21's and let's be honest none of them have shone or stand out at all. Any re-build will dep...

Didn't say he wasn't corrupt in other spheres of his life, it was the inference in the posts that somehow our plight was as a result of having a corrupt owner.

Veteran of several relegations back to 1971 when we dropped into the 4th division, this one maybe feels a bit worse than some as its a long time since we've been third tier. But in a way the last few seasons have been draining, Saturdays have stopped becoming enjoyable and I won't miss dull games a...

He has taken advice from the wrong people consis...
