Re: this board boils down to this

putting issues of personal pride, oneupmanship and the vindictiveness of the "i told you so" brigade aside, we all want Reading to stay up so let's support the club, albeit in the imperfect shape it is in at the moment, in that quest, simple really, real simple Can't argue with that - but...

Gordons Cumming What is most fun is reading about how we are destined for relegation with 13 games to go.

All the negative tosh spouted by so called supporters.

It makes my heart glow.



Alright Gordons. Hand on heart. Do you think we will stay up?


Yes


Well that has torn it!

Tell you what Wycombe - lets argue about the merits of particular players and formations. Let's hope the players are reading that this one is not good enough - this formation doesn't work etc. Bad run of results - When did that start Wycombe?

Re: What has caused this bad run of results.......

Bad run of results - When did that start Wycombe? We were not too clever at the start of the season and there isn't the time to deal with the question of whether to base our approach on Kitson or on Marek (Which to me is a bit too radical right now). . I suspect that a run of 6 defeats counts as a ...

Re: What has caused this bad run of results.......

I don't think that the problem lies so much with the ability of the players. It is more to do with the clubs statements and intentions serving to demotivate and undermine the confidence of the players. We do not want the UEFA Cup - How hollow does that seem now? No doubt people will throw back at me...

Re: Finding a new Owner - Billionnaires to take things forward!

I think Bournemouth has shown that for small clubs the supporters trust model really struggles. There's no way we could get even close to 100,000 supporters to invest £2K - or even £1K or £100. It works for Barca and Madrid because they're HUGE clubs with worldwide support - we aren't. IMO for a sm...

Re: Coppell's latest backtrack

However, I'm beginning to think the complacency cap may well fit some at the club too. As regards the fans causing panic; as with any other business it's the leader's job to take the lead and do everything possible to increase morale. Which of the leaders at RFC have really been doing that? And JM ...

Re: Coppell's latest backtrack

Complacency and blind optimism is going to cost this club dear.


Where is the complacency and (Blind) optimism in the club?

At the moment there is Blind panic, so perhaps supporters/Fans should really be thinking of the part they are playing!

Re: Finding a new Owner - Billionnaires to take things forward!

Mr Madjeski wants a billionnaire to move the club forward. The Queen could blow out the candles on her 75th birthday cake last weekend, content in the knowledge that her fortune has risen by £25million this year to £300 million —pushing her up one place on the list to 105th. Genius. So much so that...

Re: Finding a new Owner - Billionnaires to take things forward!

The Stadium will only be enlarged IF we retain our Premier League status. Of this, there is no doubt. It would not make financial sense to enlarg for the Championship ! I don't think you can say that it will not make financial success - because by that leap of logic the stadium would not have been ...

Re: Clear out in the summer?

Bearing in mind our manrta of having young, hungry players desperate to prove themselves, I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a quite high turnover of players in the summer. Those wanting to leave will be allowed to go if the right offer comes in and I expect that will include the majority of the fir...

Re: Clear out in the summer?

Convey's problem is that he has a tendency to pull out of a 50/50 challenge, when it seems that his momentum would allow himself to pull away from the defending player. I wonder whether he is haunted by the long term injuries that he has incurred and is perhaps understandably weary of a recurrance. ...

Re: Clear out in the summer?

It wouldnt surprise me to see Convey go judging by some of the comments Coppell has made about him (basically one good season in four so far). Wasn't Convey injured for most of last season? I wish that Convey would be given the opportunity to run at people more - instead of passing square or crossi...

Re: Clear out in the summer?

I don't think it would be healthy to have a large turnover of players coming in and out (Even in the close season). I would have thought that the key would be continuity.

Re: Clear out in the summer?

Incredibly harsh crowd here. Have people forgotten how good Sonko was last year before he got injured? Not easy to come back from injury and bring stability into a shaky team. I may have said so already but there is no way that anyone should be contemplating selling him on the back of some dodgy gam...
