I remember various people pointing at his record at Fulham and saying we are getting promoted. I for one was underwhelmed by spending many millions on players which we potentially didnt really have a role for site . I also have noticed that scouting has become kind of weird. Buying unnecessary play...
Oh exactly. But every time you are signing a player you have to assume you are signing the, because you think they are good! That means someone thought Aluko was good :shock: I remember various people pointing at his record at Fulham and saying we are getting promoted. I for one was underwhelmed by...
The biggest thing for me is looking to try and bring players in who can play in the Championship, a few of the seasoned players we'd look to bring in over the summer ideally want Championship experience like what others in L1 brought in (Derby; Hourihane, McGoldrick, Sheff Wednesday; Flint and Vaul...
Some journo on Twitter has taken it a step further and said we’re in talks with wilder and he is keen. We’ll see soon I suppose Would be delighted of course I think back to his great work with Northampton and Sheffield United in Leagues 1 and 2. If you give the guy a long term project he will deliv...
General update on Ejaria, Meite and Carroll https://rdg.today/reading-fc-boss-noel-hunt-provides-updates-on-yakou-meite-ovie-ejaria-and-andy-carroll/ I liked what Hunt said about Yakou Meite. Still, it's good that the forward is eager to play, even though he's injured. But it wasn't worth the risk ...
What lovely speculation, putting our heads together to come up with sensible candidates. How sweet. Back in the real world: Dai isn't giving a minute's thought to Reading FC, is busy negotating corrupt deals somewhere in China. However he has a friend of a friend who used to manage a third tier Sun...
Off to Ascot tonight- it`s still all ticket but tickets can be purchased up to 7pm tonight https://www.berks-bucksfa.com/news/2023/apr/03/senior-cup-final-2023 It's utterly ludicrous to have this showpiece held on a weekday evening, especially will so many back holidays around this month! So it mig...
Would be good if true but I think he will likely get better offers. He does have a good record for building squads for promotion. Depends, stranger things have happened. Have to see what happens at Watford first and then Mr Bowen needs to sell the club. Got to act quickly whatever though. Key to it...
Play off fixtures Sheff Wed v Peterborough Barnsley v Bolton Stockport v Salford Carlisle v Bradford All looks distinctly northern! Personally hoping Carlisle and Sheff Wed both win through. In the idea that we'll be going on a promotion charge next season, I'd rather Sheffield Wednesday or Barnsle...
Also, as soon as an individual puts significant sums into a club, they'll want to do it through a limited company or an incorporated body, otherwise their money just goes into a members' club and is legally then the property of all the membership. It makes sense to put money in and get shares back ...
The best option in this game, in my opinion, is to play 5-4-1. Stay in defense and try to counterattack. It is unlikely to see strong attacking football in this game.
It's amazing isn't it that despite every fan being very aware of the obvious huge restrictions on the club and the ridiculous injury crisis, especially in defence where most of our problems lie, that at the end of the day only results matter and all that is thrown away. Given the circumstances they...
