I think you'll find he's in Tenerife. :wink:

Maybe he's got BR a job as a timeshare rep out there.


More like a floor sweeper although the guy would probably mess that up as well.

Yeah, because we were flying weren't we.


la la la, I'm not listening - I'm just going to keep reiterating the same snap shot of our season and pretend that I know what I'm talking about and that we would definitely have stayed up when we looked like going down anyway - la la la I'm not listening.

Agreed. He was great at taking penalties.

Royalee A last gasp draw against a Bristol City side so poor that they're 3-0 down at home to Cardiff


Make that 4-0 8) .

To be honest, I hated every minute of 2009 and particularly Rodgers reign where I quite honestly didn't enjoy a single match. All the highlights of this wretched relegation season have occured since Rodgers was sacked; last minute LOLz at Bristol City, similar but better at Anfield and beating Burnley. Doesn't mean that I am not absolutely convinced that we are certs to go down, but looking on the bright side when we're confirmed as relegated in April no-one will remember this particular game with so many abject performances to call upon 8) .

He could have had a chat with the keeper before taking it just to confuse him with his surreal spin leaving a virtual open goal.

Wycombe Royal He actually made the dream come true for us by getting us to the Premiership. noone really thought that was ever going to happen.

Yes but once we were there the cutn lost interest after seeing how much it would cost to keep us there


I don't see what's wrong with that - I wouldn't sell my flat to buy a season ticket, I don't expect him to pour his entire fortune into one of his businesses. Football Clubs have to learn to stand and fall as businesses, he understands that even if a lot of fans don't.

And there hasn't exactly been a profusion of potential buyers desperate to get their hands on the club, either when it was going well or now, so there's not a lot he can do. Unless you want him to actually sell all of the players, sell the land to property developers and wind up the club? Can't see how else he can just walk away right now, so saying he should oxf*rd off is just ignorant.

But then, that's Team Board for you.

I'm sorry, but our players ARE good enough. We've shown glimpses of quality in some of the games and in theory our position is a false one, so it's obviously there. However, the drive and ambition isn't there. Our players just aren't hungry enough, as was shown against Plymouth and Forest first half. We've also have no one to take the place of Wally Downes to sort the defence out.

Rasiak - 300k
Long - 70K
Church - Academy/Free
Thor - Loan

We spent 370k on a strikeforce and people wonder why we cant score goals. This club is a joke.
As long as Egoman is here, this club will only go backwards.

So depressing being a Reading fans its scary.

2-0 is a dangerous score at half time, If we can get the first goal and get it early we're back in the game.

We've spent more than that just on those four players. What are their wages, what was the cost of training Church and Long through the Academy for several years, what was the loan for for Thor?

No, I just pointed out our league position and where we are now and the massive drop in league form since McDermott has taken over. Meanwhile you throw a hissy fit and can't build a proper argument Ian.

RoyalBlue F*ck off Madejski you ............

Still hope you're having a nice time in Barbados, what with being down to your last £50M+ or so

Our only hope now is that Kingsley turns out to be a Secret Millionaire!


I think you'll find he's in Tenerife. :wink:


That's not what the radio/TV said the other day. Hopefully the poor barsteward is so broke that he's had to cut his cloth and settle for Benidorm!

You Madejski lovers take note,hes oxf*rd up your dreams

He actually made the dream come true for us by getting us to the Premiership. noone really thought that was ever going to happen.


He did that out of love for himself/his name and milked every moment of the adulation that he received. Now he's lost that drive we are paying the price (Doug Ellis mark 2) and yet some still think the sun shines out of his arse!

Load of w@nk. The issue is we cannot score goals. The club need to buy a striker as they sold all our decent ones so my issue is with the clueless w@nks that run the club. Everyone can see we need a goalscorer, so why haven't we bought one in? There is so much pressure on our defence as the strikers never score. Shane long, has he even scored a league goal with the minutes he's been on the pitch?
