Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

New names in the frame - BREAKING: I have received word from a very good source that the owner of Boston Bruins ice hockey team, Jeremy Jacobs , is in negotiations to buy Reading FC. https://x.com/secret_transfer/status/1905630927457255899?t=4BX9s69p6GoI0CXkLBzTCw&s=19 And I had heard another p...

The window will open between Sunday, 1 June and Tuesday, 10 June, then close for five days before running again from Monday, 16 June until M...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

But it was paid back. Yes it was. The lawfirm which sent the request to return the relevant documents back, resigned from representing (and now suing) Reading FC, so according to RC he cannot return them. RC is now is also suing Dai/RFC so is keeping them until the outcome of the case in July. That...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

That's a bit unfair on Platek. What's he done that Couhig hasn't done at Wycombe, and conversely, what's Couhig done at Wycombe that Platek hasn't done at Casa Pia? I'd say their methods and level of success are comparable. We could do a lot worse than either. I do think though that Couhig is seen ...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Highlights nobody around here has a clue what is actually going on at the moment. Pulled from pillar to post with a ton of machinations going on. At the end of the day RC managed Wycombe into a very useful well run unit. Meanwhile Dai and his entourage of advisors (whoever they may be) have managed...

Re: The phoenix club thread

Fair enough, bit too sociable for you I would imagine, and not easily available on tv…. I like quality, I appreciate it's not for everyone though. Let’s be honest here - you are just rather blinkered. If your driving force was quality you’d have swapped your Royals TV pass for a Real Madrid TV subs...

Jamie Curetons Cambridge City maybe?

Utd are shit, and City are their ugly younger step goblin.

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

Winding up petition doesn't change anything, and it's not like it's our first, or possibly even second under Dai's god awful tenure.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (h)

Elliott still not in contact training, Dorsett getting there but slowly. Mbengue is ahead of schedule though a...

Re: The phoenix club thread

Changing to another FL team is probably not going to be for many, but once you get into non league it is a real breath of fresh air. I don’t think I’d ever go back to the hype and over serious football in the top tiers. Good lord no. Sod that. Fair enough, bit too sociable for you I would imagine, ...

Re: The phoenix club thread

It's interesting - not sure I would change affiliation - have nothing against Reading City. Would probably also follow a local club instead - in my case probably Truro City just because of location. Was thinking would I go local. And the idea of supporting Cambridge through shit and shitter, or goi...

Re: The phoenix club thread

Simply getting behind Reading City might not be the worst option. Established club, with a ground. An influx of support would potentially let them rise rapidly up the leagues and they may not be averse to becoming the home of former Royals, although they might hate the idea . To be honest it would ...

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

I kinda get it though. Family and friends come and go, as do we all, but you expect your club to live on in perpetuity... it's a permanent fixture of life. And a focal point of life for some, with tens of thousands of hours and pounds invested into it. In some ways it can be more akin to a person's ...

Re: Generic clubs in financial crisis Thread

Yeh something they dont like about FC100,000 but it doesn't make it clear And I doubt Reading would turn them down given our situation They're the latest iteration of MyFootballClub that dallied with Ebsfleet a few years ago. They don't have a proper hands-off relationship between the membership or...

Re: The phoenix club thread

Get things set up fairly well and quickly, relatively high up the tiers and I wouldn't say 6k is beyond realistic if results are good.

Start low, with a season or three delay and some duff results, and we'd probably struggle with 1.5k

Let's hope Dai is more committed to selling the club than the last four times we've released statements saying that.

Re: CONFIMRED - The final countdown

The sale to Platek is being held up by Couhig's spurious case. You can try all you like to spin this another way, but that's the case. I get that Dai could just put the part of the sale value he's being sued for by Couhig into an escrow account. Seems he's unlikely to do this. The Couhig court case...
