windermereROYAL Long article that but would have replaced Ruben even though he liked him if I read that correctly.

He pretty clearly says they rated Selles. I think the management overhaul applies to other areas .

Edit. What MorganB said

I'm curious to know what "success" looks like and what the timeframe is for the new guy. Winning Trophies or does it have to be the right trophies? Qualifying for the Champions League or winning it? Competing for the Premier League or winning it? Does he get a year, 2 or maybe 3 to achieve...

Unless it's been reported elsewhere I seem to recall there being some speculation over who actually fired him. We're told Couhig's mob were making decisions around this time (The folding of the women's team was alleged to be their decision) and their money was financing the club so it may be that th...

I doubt doing well in the EFL Trophy will help with that. Do you think the board targeted Selles with promotion? I mean... we're doing well, but it is a surprise even to us. We know we have a good squad, little depth, playing our admittedly good youth players. I'd take a cup win like this over prom...

Hutchinson was at fault for the equaliser as he let his man go. For the winner there were 3 of ours marking two of theirs at the far post. Yiadom, Dean and Kelvin E. We know Kelvin isn't the most switched on defensively and as experienced pros the other two should really have been able to manage the...

Can someone smarter than me let me know about the rules for the Bristol Motors cup? I believe there’s a rule that you have to play a certain amount of players from your previous game in the next trophy game. Does this include previous league game or will Saturdays FA Cup game count ? Whatever the an...

Orion1871 No idea how Exeter didn't score at the end there.

Outstanding last ditch challenge by Dean.

yeah, defence a bit ropey and saved by moments of individual excellence. Pretty much describes us as a team tbh. think our attacking has shown a lot of potential, some good passing moves. Thought we were pretty poor in general going forward today which is obviously an odd thing to say when we’ve sc...

stealthpapes yeah, defence a bit ropey and saved by moments of individual excellence.

Sadly, this is all such a mess that further protest seems utterly pointless. Dai wants to sell because he needs money, but can’t because he’s gambled away £50 million of the bank’s money. The Chinese bank want their money back but no one in their right mind is going to give Dai £30 million and pay ...

This will we a difficult test! Rotherham will play a very physical/bruising style of play, whilst half our squad aren't even men yet......so yeah personally a draw will be a great result and a fine end to a 7 point week :D However, football is a funny old game and this team of youngsters are creati...

'preciate you. Remind me, where are you? Are we going to meet up for the playoff final? Apologies for the late response , I’m in Dallas. You’re Arkansas based? Ah yeh, I did know that. Yeh, Northwest Arkansas, so about 5 1/2 hours from you. Have you watched any sport at Cosm yet? No sporting events...

Let’s be honest there’s little likelihood that anyone involved isn’t a pcunt in some form or another . Dai has been a damaging one but Couhig didn’t really give me any better vibes than Storey or the German bloke. The whole Purple Turtle/Twitter presence always seemed a little “try hard” for me. We ...

Hold your own in the situation. Don't be afraid to be a friend. Cause I won't hurt you or leave you a loose end. You make me alive enough to love again. A bit niche but it earned a smile from this fellow Royal exiled in the US. 'preciate you. Remind me, where are you? Are we going to meet up for th...

So tomorrow'a game is a Sky Sports Plus game but not showing internationally (at least not in the US) so I should definitely be able to get it on Royals TV?

Guess I'll find out at 6:30am tomorrow

So far Dai has torpedoed deals with: Genevra Loitz Chiron Couhig and Redwood. It is never happening, we're a dead club walking and groaning like a zombie. Hold your own in the situation. Don't be afraid to be a friend. Cause I won't hurt you or leave you a loose end. You make me alive enough to lov...

Oh this is another alt of dd/WoodleyRoyal/Brogue/Loafer. It all makes sense now. What you talking about Willis Ignoring the personal accusation but addressing the original post. You know this is a deliberate disingenuous post from an attention seeking poster at a time when genuine fans are concerne...

It's probably less of a shock than is being reported that Lille midfielder Angel Gomes is in Lee Carsley's first England squad - Gomes has been a regular in his U21s side. Likewise Madueke. So too was Gibbs-White before he got too old. Surprised at no Adam Wharton, and no Toney - so Watkins clear u...

The BBCRB team have given me hours of entertainment over many years. I'm fine with the diversions - it's just chat, and it's always felt to me like they are familiar people, with their quirks and mannerisms. If you really cannot bear a lighthearted discussion of the sandwiches they're given or thei...

Interesting. That's exactly why I thought he'd subbed him. It seemed so obvious but Dim was baffled. Is Dim still saying that Selles clearly doesn’t rate Kelvin, as he said last season every time he didn’t start or got substituted? I think Mick is playing that tune. He was musing whether Ehibhatiom...
