Re: Jason Roberts nearly back

But the older you are, the more susceptible you are to both injuries and recurrences of previous injuries and the recovery time from each injury also increases - it';s harder to regain full fitness as well. Roberts is now 35, and I fear that anyone who sees him as a season-long answer to our proble...

Re: Big name on their way out?

The actuality is that until a new owner is sorted out, Reading will be operating on a basis where neither Zingarevich nor Madejski will invest any money. With effectively joint owners now that the full Russian takeover is off the table, why would Madejski invest money that was not being matched. For...

Its exciting we are even talking to MoMo! Past tense. Had spoken to. That marvelous piece of RFC genius has backfired already. What happened to the "we only release information when the deal has been done" for Sissoko? Because they know they did not manage expectations "Looking at ge...

Re: Jason Roberts nearly back

I agree with: 1. He probably won't be back 2. It would be great if he did come back 3. If he did come back we can't reasonably expect him to be as good as at the end of the 2011/2012 season 4. Who can blame him for taking the money while his contract is still active 5. The very valid point that with...

Re: We had a chance

Nick Hammond Sales Director. They blamed the last window on Brian. Presumably Anton will sack Hammond now as otherwise it is his fault. Can't wait until the propaganda machine that is the web site churns into action "rightly prudent" and "did our business early". Any other guesse...
