Very pleased for Liam Kelly Talent wise he was good enough for the Championship. There was obviously some sort of attitude or mental health issues earlier in his career. Fair play, he looks to be moving beyond them and he has absolutely dominated the play offs. Difference maker in semi final and fi...

No, because there's enough evidence out there to suggest things are moving forward. Agreed If Dai pulls out now I can’t see how the club survives at all as the security will be enacted I imagine them seizing Dai's shares and Bearwood as collateral is a messy process, but surely the endgame is not t...

If Arsenal and City both win today, Arsenal will have 89 points without winning the title, the 3rd highest total after Liverpool on 92 in 2022 and 97 in 2019. All 3 behind City, which shows how relentless they are. Man Utd also got 89 in the "Aguerooooo!" season and Spurs got 86 when Chels...

1 week of the initial exclusivity period remaining. Though it can be extended of course. Anybody else starting to get nervous again?

I'd be fuming as a Bolton fan. They were a better team than Derby and contrived to finish beneath them. They are a much better team than Oxford and failed to turn up and do the basics on the big day. They only have themselves to blame, and if they start next season slowly I suspect it'll be bye bye ...

And stop Reading FC too. Really doesn't help us having Bolton in L1 next year. Don't think we are in serious contention anyway, unless we make some clever signings. Agree, can't really see us challenging until the embargo is lifted and that's assuming the ownership situation gets resolved before th...

Mid Sussex Royal Its good there's another decent side in the league which will hopefully stop Hollywood FC going up.

And stop Reading FC too. Really doesn't help us having Bolton in L1 next year.

bloody Volvo driver Not had a shot on target yet. Outfought on the pitch and outthought off the pitch.

Fair assessment. They've been a better side than Oxford all season but you have to do the basics.

The last gift of the Dai era. A local rival we spent two decades above of in the football pyramid getting promoted to the division above us. Still time for a McAteer response. Be :lol: if Bolton do another 94/95 recovery. From Reading's perspective both teams are inconsistent garbage so, for next s...

Not going to make assertions that they'll get massacred in the Championship, but it will be a massive achievement if they survive. Weakest of the 3 promoted sides, smallest club in the division and smallest budget. Would need a season of Brannagan and Murphy both fit and in form, plus some smart rec...

From memory wasn’t Jem’s first nasty injury against Leeds at home caused by a scissor tackle by Michael Brown that trapped his leg and then Brown put his weight on Jem’s leg. It was considered a nasty and agricultural tackle 15-20 years ago, now outlawed? It was a red card offence then, but the ref...

If they do vote to get rid, I can't wait to see the reaction when a ref howler determines the title or a relegation spot.

Let's see shall we but it would be good to have it all sorted well before the start of next season which is just over a couple of months away-that is why the "months" concerned me. Yes Stranded there has been a lot going on between us and the EFL but not for the right reasons so let's hop...

From Despair To Where? The agent's been suspended for 6 months so it Olise moves this summer, he's kind of oxf*rd himself.

Ban starts in October so as not to interfere this summer.

I personally can't criticise the club for doing everything to sign a talent like Olise from our academy. His agent had us by the balls and we met his terms. It was vindicated; he played great football that gave us a chance of the PL, before bringing us £8m and quite possibly another £5m this summer....

Nigel Howe has been fined £5,000 and issued an immediate six-month suspension from involvement with player contract negotiations and transfer related activity, and a further six-month suspension from all football related activity to commence upon the expiry of the first suspension. I wonder the sus...

So almost certainly not going to ruin the sale of the club, and confirmation that we have a sell on clause. Is this actually good news?

Yeh, it's an article that doesn't quite add up from an unreliable source.

WTF did we agree to something that wasn't allowed. Clowns the lot of them. If it makes you feel any better, the same redacted documents revealed that we do in fact have a 10% sell-on for transfer profit in regards to Olise. Who knows what Dai is supposedly selling the club for, but the knowledge th...

Seems very harsh. We developed Olise, if an agent is strong arming us to push the laws or lose him for free, surely he is the one who has the book thrown at him? Imagine how much suffering could have been avoided at many clubs if Kia had simply been banned for his role in Mascherano and Tevez. Who k...
