George Puscas is currently available on a free having been released by Bodrum at the end of last season. That’s a career that’s gone well.

Interesting article on BBC Sport site where their EFL pundit closes with:

"Five games in, it's still salvageable. Seven, eight, nine, 10 games in, it's not, so I expect there to be a change in the near future."

A fair few Reading fans seem to disagree with this sentiment when its closer to home...

Sky Sports confirming Selles sacked from Sheffield United and being replaced by.............................................................................

Chris Wilder.

:roll:

(And when they fire him after a few months, no doubt they were turn to Colin for salvation....)

Many managers have salvaged things after 10 games, so it's hyperbolic nonsense. The sort of media rhetoric designed to whip up anger to drive clicks. No one reads 'manager struggling but there's plenty of time for a turnaround'.

Wellens literally did it last season. 2 wins in 11, finished 6th

Well, he chased the money and I guess he will judge if that was the right thing to do.

Might be unemployed and unemployable now, in the eyes of some. But at least he has a healthy bank balance.

Selles should get at least one more gig in L1 before he has to give up/leave country. Hell, if Gomes can keep getting jobs somewhere so can Selles.

Bad day at the office for Andy Carroll yesterday (his first full start for Dagenham & Redbridge), has a headed goal disallowed then is sent off…..all before halftime.

Clearly not.
Reading were closer to being promoted last season than Hull.
