Whilst there may be some truth in what Kuhl says, it's exactly the sort of outspoken victimised attitude that people don't like - which could give credence to reports of disharmony within the club and himself.

[Nameless]

That report would seem dubious to say the least, given that he's still in a job.
Clarke has done a pretty thorough job of changing personnel at the club, if there was any issue with Kuhl he would have been out the door by now , no ?

I have no idea how true any of it is, but assuming it is and Clarke/the club wanted him out, they would have a very hard job trying to sell it to the fans and others. Results are just too good.

It's probably all rubbish though, there seems to be a harmony around the club at the minute from top to bottom, something that was missing for a while and something we had pride ourselves on in the past.

[Nameless]

They finessed the dismissal of Selby well enough. The original Kingsley !

[JC]

Being a Reading FC employee the concept of him being 'wrong' is very left field.....

So what do you think he meant - or perhaps you could ask him

[Nameless]

I think he meant what I said I thought he meant ... Are you one of these posters who don't read any posts other than your own or replies to it
I can't ask him, I've never spoken to him and I doubt he'd be especially interested in talking to me !

[ZacNaloen]

If there is any disharmony between Kuhl and Clarke it's because they are very similar personalities. Or maybe Martin is a bit more dour, he certainly comes across as no-nonsense on the touch line. Professionals can get over that sort of thing.

He probably has one of the more secure positions at the club, the players in the development group win a lot, and many have improved under his tutelage. Nothing more can and should be asked of him.

[SCIAG]

Think he answers to Dolan rather than Clarke anyway.

I think we should be going for a treble of league titles this season - U18s, U21s, first team.

[Pepe the Horseman]

You should get someone to price that up.

Does Dolan report to Clarke, or is he on a level with him ? Presumably Clarke reports directly to the board rather than to Hammond.
I'd guess the former (re Dolan), but am not sure !

Howe surely?

Clarke to Paroj. Dolan to Hammond

Anyone know who scored for us in the u18 2-1 loss to Brighton last weekend?

In a word - no. First game they have lost and it does not get a mention. The OS still shows it as the next fixture

The u18s thumped Spurs 4-1 away from home today! 2 goals from Davis and 1 apiece from Barrett and Smith

I was getting a bit of deja vu on that one, our U21s achieved the exact same scoreline in their last match!

Everything is coming up Reading FC.

[ZacNaloen]

Will be a tough game, can't wait
