melonhead If tsi can get a phoenix bid in, and win, do they get the rest of the club for a pound?
That makes amounts of business sense.
Cunning

Hypothetically, I guess anyone not on the board of Reading FC could be on the board of a phoenix company without any conflict of interests.... even if they were previously on the board of Reading FC until recently departing.

If JM is unhappy about the Phoenix bid why did he handover the decision making to Vibrac , so willingly??

I guess he didn't want to pay the tax man. But if he made that decision surely he shouldn't start saying he's not happy to sell to certain parties.

Is it just soundbite or a PR exercise. I feel let down by JM but can understand he has had enough but don't really think he should be trying to take the high ground.

I think I did well to answer with good grace given the monotony of the subject.

This is an honest question and I mean no disrespect but why don't you oxf*rd off to a forum of one of your own teams?

If he went to an Aldershot forum he'd just be talking to himself....

Because the Vibrac deal was negotiated by Andrew Obolensky, in case you ever wondered what he actually did...

It's almost as if they had a secret 'long term plan' using the hapless, incompetent, unstable AZ as the fall guy?

Let's get a few things sorted out here guys :

1. Frank Waller was the chairman back in 1983 prepared to flog us to that pension cheating ba*stard Maxwell ( and as it is Fathers Day, how delightful of you to leave it to your sons to pick up the blame. Don't worry Vic Junior, I will never do anything like this to you or your sisters) Back then it didn't take a millionaire to run Reading FC. We are getting crowds of 1760 - 4000.
2. Protests by both us an O*ford (shudders) stopped us from becoming Thames Valley Royals - playing in a wonderful 10 000 all seater stadium in Didcot.
3. No one is suggesting Madejski took over at this point.
4. Roger Smee took over
5. Thank f*ck for that
6. We were already relegated, but went back up from Div 4 to Div 3.
7. Smee and Branfoot-Out took us to Division 2, for 2 seasons. Crowds back in Div 3 are about 4000
8 Smee sold the club in 1990 to Madejski.
9. Madeski says 'I will take this club to Divison 1 - now the Premier.
10. Everyone says 'but this is Reading, Madesjski!
11. Madesjki does indeed take us to the Premier.
12. F*ck me says the whole of Reading, and up yours Swindon, O*ford and Aldershot.
13. We nearly qualify for Europe
14. Well bugger me says the whole of Reading
15 In typical Reading luck we go down on the only time we are in the relegation zone - mostly due to those cheating b*stards Portsmouth putting a weakened team as they are in the FA cup final just after playing us. Wolves complained about Pompey doing the same thing to them.(I contacted Wolves, who were polite enough to reply)
16. We go back up to the Premier
17. F*ck me says the whole of Reading
18. We go back down to the Championship
19. Madesjki sells the club but keeps a stake in it
20. A Russian Billianaire? Drenth? Bridge?
21 F*ck me says the whole of Reading
22. The Russian Billianairrre turns out not to be so wonderful after all.
23. Madesjski is back in charge of this money losing nightmare, and the club is put up for sale again.
24. We finish 7th, Thank God avoiding the bl*ody play offs and God Forbid going up, as we would have been a joke in the Premier this time
25. Meanwhile, Ox*ord have gone out of the league (I know they are back in, playing at a stadium which only has three stands. Do you mind says Oxford Science Park, we can't keep giving you your balls back!
26 Aldershot go in to Administration and reform, and s*d about between League 2 and non league football.
27. Portsmouth have been into Administation more times than a shop selling everything for 1p or less, yet still survive, the dodgy s0ds
28 Swindon can't get out of League 1 or League 2

Madesjski needs respect guys, not all this sh*t. If we are a tax loss to him, fair enough.

To be quite fair Sir john did save us from administration and a possible merging with Ox***d all those years ago and has put more money into our club than all of us put together, so lay off him.

If you are going to be that 'fair' we may as well congratulate him on inventing the telephone, discovering penicillin and writing most of Bob Dylan's lyrics ....
