I would LOVE him to stay, but what would you say to 50 Million, 40, 30, 20, 15,12, 10?

There comes a point where losing one player for seriously good money makes sense. Our heads have to rule our hearts.


If we lose another CB, Gylfi won't save us. Gylfi sold for ten million might save us, and six million
IF IT WAS SPENT ON TRANSFERS AND WAGES, might make us a better team all-round

I repeat, Gylfi is fantastic, should only get better and he's probably worth an extra 10-15 points a season
but a good CB and a deadly striker would get us those points too.

WoodleyRoyal Maybe Jake Taylor will be better


I'm honestly starting to not care anymore.

If he is, we'll sell him.

What's the point.

Sold sold whoever they may be

Now they've seen that we are fcuked.

But Snowball, according to most people, we've sold him for £4m. Not £10m.

How much of that do you think will go towards these new players.

(Oh, Warnock's quoted in press that he's after TWO wingers by midweek. McAnuff AND Kebe?)

We might fall off the path of a progressive, well run club though. I feel there is something lurking in the background which is influencing the sale of integral players.

Easily the most technically gifted player I've seen in a Reading shirt and but I'm more pissed off at the timing of this. We choose to sell now with less than a day left of the transfer window with not much time to get a much needed goal scorer.
On the plus side I can see us switching back to 4-4-2 now and on top of that Taylor may actually get the chance to show us why he is so highly rated in his actual natural position up front!
