Friday's Legacy doubters will doubt

I'd have thought in Reading you could have got away with 'd8ers will d8'.

Friday's Legacy
winchester_royal
robinsfriday Jonny Fordham ‏@JonnyFordham
Sigurdsson DID NOT meet with #readingfc last week, Royals didn't even submit a bid see @Getreading tomorrow for details

:shock:


Oooft, Jonny has the ITK brigade on the ropes, I predict a KO blow tomorrow.

Maffff, your debut innings could be about to go spectacularly downhill.


Unless JF has developed some credibility over night, I really wouldn't put too much faith in that report. GS was on our radar as soon as the takeover was ratified. Brian did speak to Sigurdsson, as did Anton and Brian together. Of course none of that can be proved, and as usual no matter what track-records go before anyone, doubters will doubt, but I stand by that 100%. It'll be interesting if he gets direct quotes from the club or not. He said tonight he's been 'asking around' and 'doing some digging'.

I even trust you guys more than Fordham but quotes will be interesting. If Hammond is directly quoted as saying we didn't put a bid in for him, then it all gets very interesting....

If as expected we lose out here expect the usual line of:

"Interested in Gylfi?.......who wouldn't be, but he has moved on to bigger and better things now etc etc"

From the Reading heirachy

i.e a kind of non commited denial!

Oh I don't trust JF at all, but I do enjoy a bit of imaginary e-beef so y'know..

Would Fordham really have the nuts to put something as definite as that without direct quotes from the club?

I agree entirely. One person who also heard about our interest had it confirmed by three sources, and although he is modest, he is more connected than myself. Quotes will be interesting. I can't imagine why we would deny any interest to save face. If anything you would expect us to say yes we did try, and try and raise the profile of the club further as a result of our ambition.

'ITK' crew vs Fordham? It's like a slightly more spastic version of spacey vs frimmers.

I'm quite excited.

Just so we are clear, does that mean your information is third hand... Ie from a source who has sources....

Make that 5 people. [edit] ------- [edit -------, is credible, and also stands by his comments that we did speak to GS. The thing is, we can't prove anything, and even if JF can't, he has the platform to get his story across. It'll be an interesting read. One to look forward to tomorrow when I get in.

See @JonnyFordham's tweets of 25 June. Clearly suggesting GS to #readingfc had legs. But now it doesnt?
