Re: Bring back Coppell

I think one of the major problems is the relationship between manager and players. Obviously I am not at the club so cannot say too much, but from listening to how BM and McD spoke about the players it seems like they were more 'pals' with the players. The manager as I see it should surely be their ...

Re: Brian Howard

He's looked as utterly average as all the Sheff Utd fans said he was. Don't know why we signed him when the side was begging out for a quality defensive mid. No one has made that attackin mid role there own this year. I thought Karacan was quality the other day and I'm sure he can play that defensi...

I didnt know you get replies from the club if recommending transfers. I thought they would just ignore it!

Re: Short List of Four

It makes me think though if a player is worth signing for millions then why does 1 million for a manager put clubs off.

If Ferguson can go for 1 million then surely its worth it if he is the right manager. Surely one player does not have as much of an effect as the manager.

Re: Link Between the Past and the New

People are criticising the Gunnarsson's contract but that could be a reason behind it. Add that Ivar's staying, Eamon Dolan will be assistant manager. Long will still be here, Doyle if we're really lucky. Harper is still around. Cisse played in the Premiership, so did Matejovsky, Rosenior and Bikey...

Link Between the Past and the New

With all the changes happening, I cant help think that everything the club worked for in getting to them Prem is going to be undone. Yes, changes need to be made to freshen things up, but is the club risking getting too carried away with change and having to start from square one again? Surely if pe...

Re: New Captain

Why not Jay Tabb? From the last few games he looked like someone who would lead by example by getting stuck into the game. Wasnt he also the Coventry captain when he was signed?

Re: Coppell has gone

Very sad day really. Have to move on now, Reading have some good youth players coming through it seems, plus the quality of players like Tabb and Matejovsky (if they stay) to base the club on. S.Hunt and co can move on and be a part of a once successful team, but they are not the future of the club.

Re: Will It Come Down To The Final Game?

think its guaranteed that all of the top 3 will drop more points before the end of the season so its pretty pointless trying to guesstimate points and gaps etc but knowing us it will come down to last game, but with our record against better teams in big games i think we'll stuff em. True, I would ...

Will It Come Down To The Final Game?

With the season now leading up to the final stages it seems unlikely that Brum will catch up with our goal difference, so even if we dont manage to catch up with them before the final day, we will still be in with a shot 3 points behind. So do you think that this game is going to become the decider?...

It did say permanent though, so could be a loan until the end of the season, then if they get relegated they wont buy him!

Re: Shane Long

I still believe that Shane Long has some decent ability there but needs the chance to play regular football wevery week. He is not going to get that at Reading, and is not at the standard to do so. However if he went to club on loan who would play him, Im sure he would do well and learn alot at the ...

Re: RUMOUR - Doyle to West Ham for 7.5m

Tbh though Coppell doesn't like players at the club who want to be elsewhere, for example Shorey. Is that why he was still here for a whole season after saying that he would like to leave.. I think it depends on the player and how much commitment they are willing to show to the club even though the...

Re: RUMOUR - Doyle to West Ham for 7.5m

I did read an interview with him last night on Sentanta, maybe its just media putting a spin on things again... Didnt he break into the Ireland squad / team in his original season with us? But new managers have different views.
