winchester_royal Oh, and we've only heard one side of the story so convicting a character based on the words of an under-pressure manager who clearly has a problem with him is doubly moronic.


Fukking hell! Are you his boyfriend or something? He refused to travel. What more do you need to know?

Glad he managed to stay in the warmth tonight though. It is chilly out.


You're right, sorry.

F*ck off Danny you scumbag gypo filth, we don't need your type here. SCUM!

Better?

Bit harsh, especially the gypo scum bit, but it's still better than the other shite you've been coming out with.

winchester_royal Anyone who can see the POV of a marginalised player an f*ck off? Right.

No doubt you see yourself as a lone voice of rationality, but at the end of the day there are different view points and telling someone to f*ck off just because they hold a different one to yours is embarrassing in itself.


winchester_royal Manager's gone out on a limb'

F*ck off Tim, it's not like we dragged him off the street

Guthrie has previous, it was a gamble signing from a manager that in all homesty didn't need gambles he needed proven Premiership pros. The ONLY thing that the squad has is its togetherness, the manager threatened that straight away by signing Guthrie. Having signed him its important to keep a person like this onside by making him feel important\wanted. The manager has done everything but that and has made this situation worse. Don't just think this happened the other day, this is weeks\months of incident, phoney injuries and more spin than a Shane Warne googly.

It doesn't excuse Guthrie's actions and there is now no way back for him but I really think McDermott has shown his own inexperience in this situation.

Ironically it might save Mcdermott, I think the majoirty will take his side and react the way Tim did instead of looking at an absolute mauling at a terrible Sunderland this is now the lead story.

The bloke's trouble, hence passing through two big clubs without making an impact (despite having a reputation for being a good player) and now a third club, in pretty short order. Dress it up as Brian's problem and try and insult me, but I'm not sure you're looking in the right place.

Because I'm tired, slightly drunk, and thoroughly disillusioned.

Probably how Danny is feeling right now too... :wink:

He's a professional being handsomly payed and if fit should do everything that's asked of him. Be it being a sub, playing in a friendly, starting or handing out spazclappers.

The issue I have is I think McDermott has made this worse, also from Guthrie's point of view he's a premiership player, he's played the majority of his career in the PL for some big clubs, now he can't displace either Jay Tabb or mikele leigertwood? Again if the team was winning you can't grumble, but this team is devoid of ideas, experience and creativity. 3 things I'd say guthrie has more of both of them yet still the manager won't pick him.

I can understand him being proper pissed off, he's just reacted the complete wrong way and basically fcuked himself.

The Royal We I don't post on here often. I won't post in response to the inevitable negativity that I will receive in response to this.

Anyone who supports a player who's done oxf*rd all for our club, ahead of a manger who:

(a) saved us from relegation to League One
(b) Took us to a Play Off final
(c) Got us promoted

......despite continuously having to sell his best players, can, as far as I'm concerned, oxf*rd off.

I've witnessed Brian making (in my opinion) countless poor decisions this year. But I've also witnessed (in my opinion) Brian making countless brilliant decisions and massively over achieving with an average Championship squad. What happens if you do this? You find yourself in the Premiership with a team that can't compete.

Of course I'm frustrated. Of course I'm annoyed. There's a part of me that wonders what might happen if we sacked Brian and got someone else in. But if we were to sack him now, after everything he has done since he came to the club over ten years ago, I'd feel thoroughly ashamed to be a Reading fan.

What manager could keep us up with this set of players? What manager could have got us promoted with this set of players? Brian.

You make a fair point - perhaps I seem a little righteous. Perhaps telling people who disagree with me to f*ck off was wrong. But personally I can't side with a player who has behaved in this way. I recall Burns and Pardew leaving Parky out their starting eleven. Don't ever recall him refusing to travel. Crude example, I know.

There are reasons for wanting McD to go. Some of which I understand and respect. But, IN MY OPINION, Gutherie's behaviour abhorrent and he is not worthy of a place in the starting 11 our great club.

Of course, and he'll be fined (rightly) because of it.

Not sure it should be the end of him at the club though. We all make mistakes due to emotion/sense of isolation and had this been kept in-house there may have been a way back.

Now though it seems the fans have passed judgement on him and he'll be sent to the stocks.

Shame really as I do think he'd have turned out to be a good player for us eventually.

Valid points.

McDermott has always said the most important part of managing a squad is talking to those that are not in the first 11. It seems to me that had he followed his own advice more stringently in dealing with Mr Guthrie the outcome may have been much better for all involved.

There are plenty more temperamental characters around in football, especially at the top level, and if we want to build a club that can compete there then we have to learn how to manage ego's, rather than just chucking them away at the first sign of trouble.

2 world wars, 1 world cup Guthrie - F**K OFF

How anyone in their right mind can blame the manager in any way is beyond me. How many tens of players has Brian successfully managed without the slightest problem? If a player is a bad egg he's a bad egg and Danny guthrie is piece of s**t as a player and even worse as a person.

Most of us have to work very hard for our livings earning less in a year than he does in a week and its partly our hard earned cash that pays his wages. Hs behaviour is totally and utterly unacceptable given he is a professional paid a salary to do a job. Even a thick footballer must know that managers have a squad and if you're rubbish you'll be benched.

People are saying tsh we need to focus on our troubles and not on Guthrie but as far as I'm concerned Brian got us where we are through building an unprecedented team spirit and togetherness. That has fallen apart this season and that is clearly to me one of the biggest reasons for our poor form. And who do we think is the cause of it?

I'm sorry but there is no blame here for Brian, much as Brian-haters will love to use this against him. If a player is a twerp, he's a twerp and Danny Guthrie is a twerp.

Goodbye Danny.


Spot on.....................................a refreshing post in a sea of ignorant crap.

One of two things will need to happen to make me seriously consider not renewing my season ticket...........................the unimpressive Guthrie getting another game for this club and/or McDermott not being our manager at the start of next season regardless of what division we find ourselves in.

Right, so many rumours and conjecture.

I know somebody has said something about an interview on the radio confirming such and such, but can somebody post up a summary that bullet-points the facts, backed up with links that we can click on to follow up and confirm those so-called rumours? Because I haven't really seen anything concrete to suggest that there is a changing room unrest.

Despite your awful command of English, I'll respond. Can you provide a link, like I asked?!? :roll:

Oh and remember, I'm deaf, I can't listen to radio interviews.
