IMAMATEOFJOVSKY Shame - dont think Howard is any better than what we have - he can't even crack a first team place in the Sheff U team


Just about sums this one up "Howard, who cost United £500,000 from their South Yorkshire neighbours, was initially offered as a makeweight in a swap deal with Reading midfielder James Harper.

rabidbee
koran According to a poster on the BBC site - "The deadline for most European countries passed yesterday and so they can no longer bring players in. However, the deadline was extended for the UK due to the Bank Holiday. As a result, UK clubs are allowed to bring players IN from abroad, but no players from the UK will be going OUT to European clubs."

I wonder if that extends to loans?


In the Championship it certainly does.

And Howard was very impressive during Barnsley's run to the Semi-Finals of the cup. I remember he scored a great goal against Liverpool:

Definitely worth giving him a shot. Creative and much more suited to the English game then your mate Marek.

The window for loans also closes at 5pm tonight, however it re-opens for clubs playing below Premiership level next week and will remain open until the end of November or so....

Does anyone else have that feeling that 5pm is going to come and all Reading have got is a defender for 3 months who can be recalled after 1???

We need creativity and either of te Brians would provide that, it just seems we will moss he boat and sign no1.

I personally cannot stand Brian Howard. I don't know why it is, but I really seem to hate him. :evil:

We do need a creative midfielder, lets hope the Howard deal goes through otherwise we look a little lightweight in midfield.

It's probably his face. Very irritating looking thing.

Mind you, he's Winchester born, so must be good. 8)

I have to bite my lip on this. Seems I've annoyed some people with the Howard rumour. There is interest in Harper, um, sorry.
