Simmops They're utter bells though


Don't like them or the show, do your own.

I can easily . Its talking into a mic how hard can it be?


I can speak from experience as one of the presenters of the first, or at least the first popular Reading podcast - you can blame us for Adie Williams' media career if you want - but if you think all that is invloved is chatting in to a mic - knock yourself out - I look forward to your first show.

on the subject of podcasts, I listened to the Price Of Football one this morning as it was about our points deduction. Jesus ****ing christ it was bad. Your man on there just spent 15 minutes waffling, saying absolutely nothing, apart from claiming John Madejski was dead.

I have found this to be an issue with a lot of football podcasts, it tends to be just pointless waffle to fill an hour with a few blokes laughing at eachothers jokes. Think the only one I liked was the Peter Crouch podcast which was genuinely funny a lot of the time.

The ones I listen to each week are Football Weekly, On The Continent, Quickly Kevin, and then some other loosely football related ones.

I'm all for the Simmops pod* if only for giving him a platform to fully explain** about his presentation to the football authorities on VAR***

Dai Brainbocs Genuinely baffled by the idea punishments for breaking written rules which clubs have signed up to should be negotiable.


Problem is the EFL have made them negotiable and also inconsistent. I’d be very very surprised if a number of teams haven’t broken the 39m limit but few have been punished

The silence from the club is very poor. Nothing when we were going through the player embargo. Nothing now. Really not good enough. As fans we are just left in the dark.

So clubs which can best withstand a fine can find some cash down the back of the sofa and keep more points, and those which can't have to run a bigger risk of relegation. Bonkers.

I guess they know about as much as we do and are waiting for the full judgement from the EFL before coming out and fronting it up. I think there should be some sort of dialogue though, at least something addressing the supporters concerns.

Yeah, I guess they're waiting for something more official before commenting. Would be nice for them to acknowledge it, but can understand why they're waiting.

Might be a lawyer thing? Club could have been advised to say nothing during the investigation stage as it could affect the outcome.

I’d like to hear from the owner reaffirming his commitment to the club.
