Arch Confident Harper won't go; less confident about Doyle; couldn't give a flying one about Lita - if he goes good luck to him, if he stays he may yet do us some good.

In? Nobody.

exactly what i think

UpNorth More likely Bikey on the way out..?

if true we have a bid in then yes I agree Bikey on his way

Couldn't agree more....................yesterday's team selection restored much of the faith I used to have in Steve Coppell. whilst I agree that it was great to see the youngsters and I am still a coppell man surely the selection was down to injuries (Cisse, Gunnar, Doobs, Marek), players being re...

Sitting in the injury room CBAP.

fair point

although maybe if we had sat him in the treatment room rather than the injury room last season he would have returned to action a little quicker

serisouly, I am not bothered at all if lita goes - doyle and hunt will be a great front 2 (as long as doyle stays!)

I agree with others that when SC mentioned players who did not want to be here I immediately assumed one would be lita

Good news I reckon. With Doods, Gunnar and Cissie all injured and Bikey still resting Pearce will start on Saturday (as will Jem in midfield) which is what many people on here have been wanting to see.

Royal Rother

rfcjoe Two words:John Utaka.

Five words, oft repeated: Shorey was ill that day.

What Royal Rother said and Utaka is not exactly slow himself. I know it did look bad but they way people bang about it anyone would think it had been someone like Teddy Sheringham who had out paced Shorey that day.

Now that Shorey is no more, who have we got to provide a realistic threat from set pieces in the shooting gallery just outside the penalty area? Convey has been able to deliver on occasion (but his tenure as a starter seems to be limited once Armstrong frees Hunt to move into midfield) and Harper h...

i consider myself a level headed coppell supporter but if nhunt does not start ill switch to the coppell out side I am not a Coppell out guy for various reasons which are not relevant on this thread - however his biggest fault is his reluctance to change things so Hunt will not displace Doyle or Li...

Never doubted Hunt N, have seen him plenty of times up here and he is a good player, he will score goals and make them. Just a shame they will only be in the cups until Lita and/or Doyle get injured/sold i dont think theres any way coppell wont start hunt and its probable golbourne will play after ...

cmonurz Isn't Sonko banned?

Seems a no-brainer to me - good performance from Pearce midweek, centre-back suspended, should = Pearce in the team.

Wasn't Sonkos ban for this game?

Offical text service confirms Armstrong signs!

£500,000 initially possible rising to £800,000

Move to team board?

premiership_bound On the official site. It starts "earlier this summer we signed........"

So it does - well spotted

Wasn't there when I first posted I swear!

cmonurz There's two of our three signings.

what I was worried about and hence why I posted

how much did you pay for that text? you pay a fee per month not per text many on here find it funny I do this but I no longer live anywhere near Reading and often have to work on Saturdays without either the interent or a radio/telly - not really sure why I am feeling the need to justify my actions...

Sorry if I have missed this elsewhere but offical text service says we have signed Ireland's U17 captain Joyce from Belvedere and midfielder Rowe (16) on scholarship from Southampton

If DLC is being proposed as left back, why can't Murty play there as well. Surely he should have the experience to adapt? He might well do - if both he and Golbourne had been fit for pre-season I think we would have seen the two of them alternating at left back and not Hunt. Not saying this is nece...

Ian Royal - I agree with you for what its worth. I also think DLC should have been offered one more year as cover. I also think that with Golbourne, Murty and Liam we have 3 full backs (I realise 2 are better on the right but a right full back is better than a left winger to cover left back IMO. DLC...
