Re: CONFRIMED: Latest rumours Confrimed as Unconfrimed

Can't help but feel that someone writes a half sentence on a social site, a bot picks it up and uses chatGPT to flesh out an 'article' on it (which is mostly just fluff and rewording, to make it sound like they're ITK). Then other bots pick it up and do the same. In that fleshing-out process, the w...

Re: CONFRIMED: Takeover collapsed; Back to square one

Brogue heard its Sandia Investment management LP


If accurate, a UK company with a *very* similar name was incorporated last month in Reading

Re: Royals anthem.

If we played "It was 2.45 the place was alive" these days, we'd be sued for fraud.

Re: CONFRIMED: Takeover collapsed; Back to square one

Now some caller into BBC Berks and us saying the club is about to be sold to Blue River Holdings who he says are an affiliate company of Dai Yongge and Dayong Pang and owned by Ben E King (who I thought died in 2015). Anyway no doubt yet more made up bollox for those that are avoiding the bollox yo...

Re: England v Switzerland

I think we will win but I don't think it will be pretty. If he isn't going to play Foden as a 10 then don't start him, start Gordon or Palmer on the wing. Would actually like a 3-5-2 for this one. Pickford Walker Stones Gomez Saka Rice Bellingham Mainoo Palmer Foden (floating) Kane I'd be very comf...

Re: England v Switzerland

Snowflake Royal 2-1 to the Swiss in normal time, I reckon.


I think it will be a repeat of the Swiss' last game - 2-0.

Re: England v Slovakia

Southgate is falling for the old England trap of trying to fit everyone in, instead of actually building a side. I bet he's missing Grealish right now. Completely agree, but tbf he was getting pelters, and on here too, when his focus was on building a side. I think we're missing Rashford, fwiw. Yes...

Re: England v Slovakia

Foden is the only one who tries. I don't blame Foden, he's out of position and can't play with any freedom like he does at City. I take your point but if we are playing with wingers then we need to play actual wingers there imo. Oh, we need to play with a left side. Foden should be in Bellingham's ...

Re: Wycombe will be culpable.

They’re a business. They’ll be getting an excellent training ground, I assume on the cheap because of our desperation. They owe us nothing. Our club has been absolutely shafted by a series of utter tossers, if Wycombe can take advantage of that to give themselves a competitive advantage, good luck ...

Ian royal is a lawyer?


His every utterance oozes the dangerous combination of arrogance and bluster. What other job could he possibly have?

Re: “ Sell before we Dai (to someone fit and proper)“ supporters action group v2.3b sponsored by Sports Direct Tennis Ba

Pretty good, generally. As I said earlier on in this thread, however, despite my general trolly attitude and my pretend disdain for the club and the fans, I am really quite upset by all the developments of late. In terms of our approach, we appear to have the suffragette stuff in the bag, but I can...

He said the police will clear the pitch and empty the stadium if necessary. And the game will continue the behind closed doors. I don’t know why you need to argue with me ian. He is a senior steward and they all had their briefings before the game. So why don’t you stop arguing and just accept what...

So I just went round and spoke to him again, he doubled down he said all fans will be removed from the stadium and it will take place behind closed doors. The game will NOT be abandoned. https://i.ibb.co/wKQ7WFs/IMG-9043.jpg I didn’t disbelieve what he said, I disbelieve that they can achieve it if...

I'm fortunate that my local MP is sports minister. I haven't written to him yet as he's never replied to anything in the past, plus would he really care about a sports team miles away? But probably worth a shot now. MPs care about correspondence. One letter here or there, they can ignore. 20 it's h...
