Well, as they say, you an't spell #buildevolvesucceed with 'devolve'.

Seriously though, I am optimistic that they're going to pull something out of the bag to cheer us up. They will have known about Marriapa and Kébé for a while and probably have plans in place, even if it happens under the emergency loan thing or whatever. I'll keep my RTGs strapped to my face.


Yep, I can't believe that the well-oiled PR machine that that is Reading FC these days don't have something up their sleeves.

Agreed. I am sure Hammond is working on a 'killer' reason as to why we have sold 2 International Players an made no signings.

maffff Lol at the twitter rumour of Mapps to Palace for £1m. How did he lose £1.5m over a season being one of the few that looked okay in the Prem?



Good work Hammond if that's true :?

Sissoko & Guthrie would be a hell of a midfield pairing.

ReadingFC official twitter talking about the u21's - maybe a focus on our up and coming stars is on the cards?

Jonny Fordham ‏@JonnyFordham 39s
@charles_watts You do realise Royals' failure to spend will be your fault - I hope you have had stick already?

:D :D Sad but true

That doesn't surprise me one jot. What's the point of having a good Academy and not making better use of it. Of course it is also the cheap option :)

I've heard Sissoko is on £80k a week. Surely not.

McCleary, Sissoko, Guthrie, Drenthe

What a shame they'll have no one to pass the bloody ball forward to eh

PS: I think this is surely a joke!

Watts said that before Fordham reminded him of Drenthe and Pog.

I can't imagine those two are on more than £35k a week. If Sissoko is on 80k a week there's no way he'd take a 50% pay cut to come to a Championship side.

Wasn't Pog meant to be on 60k? Sure, it will have come down with our relegation, but by how much? If we've got 60k to spunk out a week, he might consider it.

That was just a persistent rumour I believe. I hear it's closer to 35k.
