Crap about his name which came across as xenophobic / racist. Screenshot here.

I dont think there’s much wrong with what he wrote in terms of it being racist, I think people are just picking holes there

It’s still an utterly bizzare thing to mention though and completely irrelevant. He’s a strange one

Pretty shambolic article all round. Stam left before Loader had even turned 18, and Clement and Gomes seemed to place a lot of faith in him.

Fair to say he hasn’t progressed or even really stepped up to the first team but getting into the stuff about his middle name is bizarre.

The local journalists have been stealing news left right and centre. I wouldn’t care normally, but it’s incredible they don’t even bother to credit one person in particular who knows more about Reading than any of our journalists do nor are they capable of consistently breaking news themselves. Pretty shoddy all round.

Que sera sera

Ian Royal or no Ian Royal.....just watching it play-out

Agree - I know the role of a local journalist has changed from the good old days of the daily Evening Post but the role surely is to get local contacts etc?

I know that twitter guy Courtney who ever he is is slated on here as he gets it wrong sometimes but all the news comes from him which Low and radio berks just copy and paste

wouldn't necessarily agree with that. Low broke before Friday about the first fake serb news. Friday relies on contacts. His bitter contact has now left Reading FC so he is fighting for scraps. The fact he has DM'd Eddie for info and sourcing is just laughable.

You are all forgetting Courtney Friday isn't a journalist, he left his job 2 years ago. He is a fraud and a fake.

not sure I've ever seen someone quite as rattled as this .
Did he steal your girlfriend or something ?

No I just like facts and accuracy. He isn't a journalist.

Sure he will appreciate you licking his arsehole out though, he likes that kind of thing. Go fcuk yourself.

If you like them so much, you should try posting with them occasionally.

[Snowflake Royal]

Seriously how do you know he's fat?!

He doesn't.

A 45 year old man who lives in a bed sit, can't drive, no social skills, no kids must have something wrong with him. I'm just guessing at weight issues.

I'm not 45, I don't live in a bed sit, I don't have no social skills and I'm not fat.

So you're managing more accuracy than usual. Well done, keep striving to be better.

Absoultey nothing. He isn't worthy of any such effort.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Lots of rumours from local journalists at the moment, but none about full backs. Don't we need more here? What's our plan if Yiadom or Richards is out?
