Do we really need another striker?

[Arnie_Pie]

Yeah, you stink.

Like a particularly smelly vag.

[FridaysGhost]

Yeah, you stink.

Nice to have serious comments. Your response seriously shows you at your best. Is there anyone on this site who can beat the IQ of 2 that Mafff aspires to?

[FridaysGhost]

Yeah, you stink.

Like a particularly smelly vag.

None of us are interested in your strange olefactory perversions. Seek help!

[Arnie_Pie]

Just be honest, say we should sign Rhodes, and own up to being The Seige (who is also a twat).

[CholseyRoyal]

Isn't Roberts rumoured to be off to Swindon to do some coaching there? No idea of how true this is though.

[paultheroyal]

QPR have a wage-bill to commit suicide over, a team-spirit that is worse than our coalition Government - and have just bought Charlie Austin (who will score 20 goals minimum in the coming season). Blackburn have spent millions over the last couple of years, are owned by imbeciles and managed on a committee basis which has only survived relegation by the goals of Rhodes (who will score 25 goals in the coming season).

In the betting, the top six teams include Reading but, only Reading are deficient in two strikers. Real fans will remember that we have the (supposed) biggest pockets in the Champ + massive relegation payments that other teams will only dream of. Having spent about 3p so far and having let about 20 players (and their wages) go, we appear to be unable to employ a decent stiker - let alone two. Jokers are suggesting that we are looking for local Sunday footballers.

Anton has said we need to go straight back up and, to do so, we need bloody good strikers. Why can serial-failure teams attract and keep these guys, whilst we dare not even look at them? We should have the pick of Championship players just like we did when we were promoted.

Something stinks!

Come back in 2 weeks

[P!ssed Off]

I've decided we should call off the search for a new striker.

Had my heart set on Austin or Hooper. Just can't be arsed on taking a punt on a random foreigner (no racism intended, they'd just take time to adapt to the league/club).

Tell Pog to sit back down, and if he's still shit (+ if Blackman's still useless) by Christmas then cancel his contract and bring someone in.

End Thread.

It's more true than him ever playing for us again. He is using us as a Pension and will not contribute to this season.

Totally agree. Morons like you should'nt be allowed to speak!

[jellytot]

No need to panic the window closes in september. I think we have to offload one or two players
first. Sure we will bring more in but not yet. Parachute payments only soften the blow. We
Have cat 1 status which is huge for the future. Nothing is certain except that 3 teams
Will go up and three will go down. Money does not guarantee anything. We pay big wages but seem to be shy to spend big transfer payments.

Anton has to build A new training ground(plans in) and buy SJM out fully by Sep. Probably most of his money is tide up. I still think Exciting times are ahead. Patience is required.
I.expect us to be top 6 but nothing is certain. I want us to go up too but we need to get everything
right. We want to be a WBA. We can. But to a plan. I doubt the QPR way will work. Get the
Foundations right and steadily build is the business way forward that will work. Football is a business. Anton is networking in Italy and has signed deals with Galatasaray and a F1 Team as he looks for more revenue opportunities. Be positive! Silly thoughtless comments are not needed.

You have no idea who we have looked at and hell im not sure i would want a hooper or a big name like that, hope we do kinda what swansea did with michu give a relative gamble a go that pays off and that'll buy into the team spirit, whilst i get that its annoying as a fan we dont know more about our dealings i am sure hammond doesnt get paid to sit on his ass, hes going to be working on transfers, as anton said we expect to sign 2 more by the end of the window, no way we'd let 2 strikers go whilst having 1 that wants out and 1 that could have seen his last days in a reading shirt due to injuries and not be looking at strikers, we didnt know bout drenthe or williams until hours before they signed/agreed to sign.

[SCIAG]

Charlie Austin has scored 20 goals twice in four seasons as a professional. I think it is fair to say he has a 50% chance of scoring at least 20 goals.

In 6 years as a pro, Jordan Rhodes has scored 25 goals or more twice. Again, it seems like far from a certainty that he will score 25 goals this season.

In 9 years as a pro, Adam Le Fondre has scored 20 goals three times, as well as 14 in the Premier League.

You're done here. Try another login. 3rd time's a charm (hint: keep quiet about Rhodes and your perceptions of other people's IQ). Good luck champ.

don't we usually "cut cloth" at this time of year?

[Stranded]

If we create the chances our strikers will score. If we had signed either Pog or ALF this summer most would have been raving about the signing. The issue for seems more that they haven't had a new toy yet do the tos they do have are suddenly rubbish.

[LoyalRoyal22]

Looks like no striker is coming in anytime soon. Hopefully POG can get his head screwed on, we could really do with him peforming. Really cant see Alfie being capable of playing upfront on his own. On saturday he will be up against Luke Chambers and Tommy Smith, they had a great defensive record last season.

[NewCorkSeth]

Well.. the doomsayers on this certainly found their strangle hold and are refusing to let go.. Who other than (dare i say it) Rhodes and Austin and better goalscorers than ours? keep in mind our excellent conversion rate statistics last season and Le Fondre scoring 12 past mucho better defenses then the likes of Yeovil or Huddersfield We are one of the top teams in terms of striker prowess. TOP.

[sandman]

ALF hasn't proved anything as a starter, even in the championship winning season he struggled when starting and he looks ill equipped to play a lone striker role as he doesn't have the pace to run the channels a la Long and Forster or the attributes to hold the ball up like a traditional target man.

[FridaysGhost]

Just be honest, say we should sign Rhodes, and own up to being The Seige (who is also a twat).

We should sign Rhodes - He would fire us to Promotion. Which bit of 'having a top Striker' don't you understand? On your other points, I was a watcher on this site before joining, I watched The Siege being honest and talking sense whilst a lot of you did neither - and a complete set of wasters simply used the site as another Facebook page. The fact that I also speak sense and am honest and do no use the site as a Facebook page does not make me someone else - although your replies do pin you down as a total ars*hole.

I support RFC, have done since childhood and was brought up to be well-educated and honest, A very few people on this site have looked sensibly at our team and have understood over the past couple of years, what our deficiencies are. Strangely, a lot of those people have now been deleted or have given up on the site. The Dross such as yourself, Melonhead, Mafff, etc. ad infinitum know sod-all but talk out of their bottoms in Facebook mode.

This should be a site for Reading fans - NOT for fans of their own verbal cr*p, a situation which currently persists!

Their will always be a few true fans, like myself, who speak on this site despite the 90% cr*p that the dimbleby's fill it up with. It will always be the same - If you do not like truth or reality, talk to the Facebook fans!
