Daily Mirror " Reading want to take Stoke defender Sonko back on loan after Igimarrson was ruled out for the rest of the season.Sonka played 136 games for Reading before his Summer transfer to Stoke but has now asked to go out on loan after being restricted to just 6 games"

Not going to happen. Fourth choice if he came here, I think he's burnt his bridges. We're fine for centre backs.

'greed.

The simple question you have to ask with this is why?

The only answer I can think of is he knows our system and we're worried about the fitness of Duberry and Bikey.

Suspect it's more a case of a journalist trying to make up a story tbf. Even if Sonko did express a desire to come back here on loan, which I doubt, Coppell wouldn't want him here.

No thanks, we need defenders who are comfortable on the ball, not hoofing it up in the air. Pearce is a composed CB and has the right mentality.

Agreed, it's nothing more than paper talk and I would be more than surprised if there was any truth in it, especially with the way that he left etc... Pearce is by far the best youngster/fringe player to make the step up this year and as a player reminds me a lot of Upson when he was here a few years ago.

I don't disagree in the slightest, I was just trying to provide a reason why it MIGHT be true and that was the absolute best (and only) thing I could come up with.

No way will this happen, paper rubbish.

BTW why did they not print Kitson and Shorey to make a return to RFC as well at the same time then it might have been a story!!

I'll make a call tomorrow to find out if this is true or not.

Kitson to return is much more likely than this.

Shorey? Oh, I'm not sure- I think Sonks would rather come back to us, but we'd rather have Shorey. I don't think there's much chance of either coming back.

Kitson 4/1
Little 10/1
Sonko 10/1
Shorey 12/1
Sidwell 50/1

IMO

Actually some of those probably aren't nearly long enough.

LOLZ at that one - 50,000/1 probably isn't long enough.

More chance of Robin Friday returning to play for against Brizzle City on Saturday than Sidders coming back here.

I was just going for something much longer than the others. I'd add a couple more zeros on further thought.

That was the same web page that said James Harper was going to Boro for a medical to seal a move on the last day of thansfer window.

The only reason to take him on loan would be to put him straight in the team. Why would we do that when Pearce/Duberry are doing so well? Complete bunkum.
