What's that saying about monkeys and Shakespeare?

Happy to be corrected. Not surprised he's left Bradford, just surprised he's gone to Bolton, although he is from Chorley.

Didn't Parky start his career with Bury?

Looks like Bolton have made the wise choice. Probably the right choice for them.

Parky has an intimate knowledge of League's One and Two. Probably better than McDermott and Adkins and more recent and up to date than Cotterill. He has also proven to be able to succeed with very limited resources at Bradford. They have certainly punched well above their weight since Parky has been in charge. Bolton being a club in massive debts need that kind of manager.

They have certainly made the best choice. Parky probably doesn't want to be pigeon holed or labelled as the manager that can do well with a League One side with no money at all to spend. Parky needs to somehow get out of that pigeon hole so that he can progress to bigger clubs and bigger budgets.

Top Flight Are the Thai's holding out for a superstitious date?

This is not the way to run a football club. Stam could have signed three new players by now. But we have to wait until pluto crosses mars before we can move things forward.

This is getting so silly now.

De Telegraaf and Sky Sports have reported the Dutchman has agreed a two-year deal

Next Reading FC manager latest: Club refuse to comment on Jaap Stam speculation

We all know that Jaap Stam has signed a 2 year deal with the football club. Why wait any longer to announce this? Superstition doesn't win you any football matches. As we found out last year. Only strong leadership from the top and good management receiving good support from the owners wins you games. You make your own luck.

Just announce the bl**dy new manager so he can get on with planning and working with the players for next season.

What has our football club come to now? Decisions aren't made in a sensible, logical fashion. The owners are just taking chances and hoping that they get some luck. Hoping to increase their luck by announcing certain decisions on certain lucky days.

We are so going down next season! This club is going to be the biggest laughing stock in the Championship next season. I suppose they are hoping to raise funding by winning the Euro Millions this summer.

Get over it ... sure there's a sensible explanation.

Like we had to wait over a month for Brian McDermott to be announced on a lucky day in Thailand.

Why did they appoint Stam anyway? Was he born on the date of the lucky golden goat? This is what management has come to at Reading FC.

FFS Top Flight, you're getting as bad as Dave.
Calm down. The club, and the OS in particular, has always been the last to announce any news. It's not as if there's much to be done at the mo, with everyone on their holidays or at the Euros.

Are you lot not concerned that decisions are being made by tarot card readers?

We fire a manager with an awesome track record at this level (League Title, 3 Cup Qtr Finals and Play-Off Final) and replace him with a bald Dutchman who has no experience of the Championship or of managing any first team professional football club because of a tarot card reading in a caravan.

Then the decision has to be announced when the stars are aligned.....

Are we going to invite Uri Geller back next? So he can suck the ball into the back of the net with his psychic powers. Reading Football Club is a surreal place at the moment.

You're becoming a parody of yourself, Top Flight. I've seen no evidence of any superstitious behaviour from the club.

Nothing yet official because the club are sorting out who comes with Stam (believed to be Andries Undeldrink and Said Bakkati) and negotiating their releases from Ajax coaching roles as well. Additionally the whole team and their families need to be able to "tie up" their various loose ends in The Netherlands and transfer over to the UK.

Once the final bits and pieces are all agreed with all parties it will be announced...

In essence then, it will be announced when the deal is done?
