This doesn't mean he's been sacked, just means a Lawyer is doing the company secretary tasks rather than the Finance Director

Seems we're finding out that running Reading has slightly bigger expectations than running Wycombe.

He's set his own expectations. Had he come in and said he was inheriting a mess, we need to stabilise financially and it'll take several years, I'm sure a lot of fans would have still moaned as lots of football fans are idiots.

But we've heard that we'll all be excited within "2 - 3 weeks", that we'll have a "strong strong strong squad", that recruitment could be "spectacular" and that only 3 or 4 teams in this league will have a bigger budget than us.

This has created legitimate criticism from non idiot fans too. I think they're finding building a squad harder than they expected, but I also think it'll prove to be a minor hitch under this ownership and they will learn.

He is a Trump supporter isn't he - so he's maybe got some of the same failings ... :D

And if his approach to dealing with a little criticism on his failings is this infantile, then it's not going to go well....

Its still early, but big talk is cheap and he's paying the bills...
