morganb Heard this on the radio regarding Man Utd and Brian Mbeumo but the same goes for Couhig/Reading:
When signing players, for every day the deal is delayed the buying club saves a day's worth of wages - so if a player is on £7k per week the club saves £1000 per day for every day the deal isn't done
Could frugal Rob be doing this?

They don’t though. They just delay paying it by 1 day. A 2 year contact is still 2 years, it just starts a day later.

Contracts usually run to 30 June from what I've seen of announcements and departures. No reason a 'two year' deal would run into mid/late July... it's pointless.

Sutekh Due to the sad passing of Adam Prior, Head of Pre-Academy and Foundation Development Phase Recruitment, the club’s communication channels will remain silent today as a mark of respect. RIP.

Royalwaster Agree - nice touch - but means they cannot announce all those new signings and Kelvin's contract renewal

Reading Football Club are delighted to welcome Village Hotel Club as our Official Hotel Partner ahead of the 2025/26 season.
A well-established name in the UK’s hotel and health & wellness sector, Village Hotel Club will proudly feature on the back of our Men’s First Team kits for the upcoming campaign, with further visibility across pitch side advertising at the Select Car Leasing Stadium.
The partnership arrives ahead of the opening of Village Hotel Club Reading, set to launch in December 2025 following a significant multi-million-pound transformation of the former Crowne Plaza site at Caversham Bridge. The new site promises to be a vibrant hub for the local community and visiting fans alike – complete with stylish rooms, a state-of-the-art Health & Wellness Club, on-site Starbucks, and the signature Village Pub & Grill, where Royals fans can look forward to a series of planned events and live screenings of televised matches.
Reading Football Club Chairman, Rob Couhig, said:
“We are delighted to have Village Hotel Club on board and would like to thank them for their support. We share the same community values, and we look forward to working closely with them throughout the season and beyond.”
Rob Lees, General Manager at Village Hotel Club Reading added:
“Village and Reading FC share ambitious plans for the future, and this sponsorship reflects our commitment to supporting community initiatives and fostering community spirit. We are extremely proud to partner with Reading FC and help the Club achieve its goals – and we can’t wait to welcome Royals fans to our new Reading hotel later this year.”
