Fair play to listening to fans around clarity. Makes things a lot clearer for me with protests moving forward personally. All of us want the best for Reading, me and my mates will now be attending the protest with the objectives in mind. Something has to be done.

Snowflake Royal Not compared to that loss rate.


Loss rate:

Tommy Burns - 44.11%
Brendan Rodgers - 47.83%
Jose Gomes - 39.47%
Paul Clement - 50.00%
Steve Clarke - 37.74%
Nigel Adkins - 38.75%
Veljko Paunovic - 43.04%

So Burns, Rodgers and Clement all worse over their reigns with the rest of them not too far behind.


The common theme is of course that they all got sacked so it is a matter of when and not if for our current incumbent as it nearly always is with managers.

Also we didn't get dumped out of the FA Cup by a non-league team, get tonked 7-0 at home and concede 18 goals over a 5 match period in the same season during the tenure of any of those.

Obviously if you take their whole tenure. But Paunovic's stats, like Stam's are skewed by an exceptional previous (half) season.

Take just this season, (and Adkins and Burns the only ones with more than 1 full season anyway) and Paunovic is worse.

Given we're dealing with the present and not the past. Last season doesn't have much bearing.

Not sure why you posted this as I was agreeing with you.

Plastic club, plastic banners, plastic protests, plastic explanations. :wink:

But yeah I think the priorities have been laid out well, can't disagree with that. Nice one c1871

Now I expect the appropriate chants in the stadium at some point.

If we rock it enough, we might get it back to right side up. Because we're pretty capsized right now.

I LOL'ed at that pic (as the kid presumably say)



Is the clown wig protest still a thing or has the placards and banners demo superseded it?

If the circus stuff doesn't go up in flames on Saturday then just fold the club. It's asking for it.

secretly I'm quite pleased to see this I'm sorry to admit. I'm taking my daughter with me on Saturday, and she's going to love this sort of shit. I hope it's free and not £10 a wristband for 3 rides or some shit like that. With the club profiting from it.

What kind of a turnout are people realistically expecting for tomorrow?

Would it be fair to say we’re looking at a number in the hundreds or possibly pushing one thousand?
