Well, the nice Omanis have been found to have a more contentious side.... hope this doesn't kibosh any sort of bid, not that I'm suggesting for one moment that 'our' Omanis have been found to be helping themselves.

Expect to see more 'ghost' goals in Reading games, and a slightly dicky goal detection system which gives Reading a goal every time the ball comes within 10 yards of goal (coupled with the Nike Aerotech radio controlled ball). Game on!!! :D

I'm excited. We have the best soap opera of a club. Nob head fickle fans on the rfc facebook page to get you angry, promotions, narrowly missing europe, relegations, wembley tears, two cups, managers splitting opinions, old owners, new owners, victoria secret models, even newer owners.

You have to admit its a good rollercoaster.

Dellor doesn't normally run with internet rumours, so that certainly suggests there is something behind the mutterings

Is that just a rumour, or is Timmy D in the know?

Mega IN for the chairman of my NFL team buying RFC.

HNA should be prepared for unrelenting positivity, the likes of which never seen before, from me if so. 8)

Tbf Clarke Hunt sounds like one of those names where a wag rings you up randomly and asks if there is a Clarke Hunt there.

His father was reputed to be the person the makers of Dallas based JR on.

What this means for us is that it is probably all some sort of dream.

I don't know if it's him or not, but that rumour started with someone naming dropping for a laugh on twitter, and then it appeared on here and Wiki (edited by a fan, removed by a moderator, re-added by a fan, then it was removed again...), and then it went viral on twitter.

It could well be him, but a massive coincidence if so.

In this case, he's apparently just run with an internet rumour.

Fucks sake Dellor.

That's because, as mentioned already, it was a wind-up that went viral. The wiki mods removed the edit twice! It's so easy to get a rumour going today. In ten minutes you can pluck a billionaire Omani/American, post it up on the rumours forum, mention it with friends in on it on Twitter, and change and quote the wiki.. by tonight it will be everywhere.
