pearcetom Don't get your hopes up. I work with Charlie Austins cousin, apparently he absolutely hates reading with a passion for ditching him



if you look on the swindon fans forum they say the same, that he hates reading!

I haven't read anything that makes me think that's true.

Total nonsense. Players get let go from clubs all the time but they don't tend to hate them for it. Maybe a little resentment at the time, but that's surely it. He was young and wasn't cutting it here and we let him go. He developed latter than most and has turned into a very good striker. If Reading offered him a chance of Championship football and doubled his Swindon wage he would take it in a heart beat.

This ^.

If he was offered double his wage, do you really think he'd say "oh bu- but, I, I hate Reading though?"

Yeah I heard his mum hates Reading too for not giving him a chance. Reports say she hopes we don't make it into the play-offs.

Have a day off. :roll:


Different circumstances but I'm sure Wayne Rooney was a massive Man U fan when at Everton

For those who cant be bothered to click link above

Skysports.com understands Reading have made an offer for Swindon hot-shot Charlie Austin.

Prolific striker Austin is one of the most sought-after players in this month's transfer window following his goalscoring exploits at the County Ground.

The 21-year-old has netted a stunning 37 goals in 53 games for Swindon since arriving from Poole Town, attracting interest from a number of clubs higher up the pecking order.

Hull City have already seen a bid for Austin rejected this month and now Reading are the latest club to express an interest in the player.

The Royals are looking to bolster their attacking options and they see Austin as the man who could boost their promotion bid.

Swindon are reluctant to lose their prize asset this month, but they could face a battle to keep hold of him with more clubs expected to test their resolve before the transfer window slams shut.

Exactly.


To add to this, I'm pretty sure Kevin Phillips for example, was let go by Southampton for being too small, and eventually ended up back there.
