2:30 PM PRESS CONFERENCE REGARDING COPPELL'S FUTURE

[brighton_royal]

I haven’t felt this pessimistic since I reversed over my cat.

But by then the worst was over!

Took three more goes before he was dead.

wrong wrong wrong

I told you this news last week but the thread was deleted by one of the mods.

You told us there would be a press conference on the 20th May at 2.30pm? Impressive stuff from a Chelsea supporter.

I said there was a press conference next week. Didn't say the day or time as it had to be confirmed.

So, let's get this right Sherlock - season ends, Coppell goes on hols for a week, and you want kudos for predicting that there'll be a Press Conf in the week of his return.

Do you think there'll be an announcement about season ticket prices, soon?

[Old Biscuitman]

If the purpose is simply to announce that SC is staying, then it's the media / PR thing gone mad. All that needs is a simple press release. Therefore, assuming that the club is saner than that, I have to believe that there's more to it. Hammond going, Coppell replacing him, new manager being sought.....is my best guess.

[papereyes]

He's gone and we've hired Mclaren and twenty eight dancing girls.

I assume the girls will be in charge of the team, what will McLOLaren do?

dance.

[Rawlie19]

In that case, I predict that Reading will sign a new player in the next 2 months. You heard it here first.

Tbf, that comment could come back to bit you in the arse based on our previous two off seasons!

We have signed players in BOTH of our two previous off seasons. What's your point?

[Kes]

like I was first to tell you Reading wanted Coppell as manager.

[North Somerset Royal]

Eamon Dolan to be brought in with SC overseeing for first season. YHIHF

[T.R.O.L.I.]

Do you think there'll be an announcement about season ticket prices, soon?

It wouldn't surprise me if JM used today's press conference as a vehicle for sorting out all of the "outstanding issues" - i.e. Coppell's future, and backroom staff reshuffling, ST prices for next year etc.

[CMRoyal]

like I was first to tell you Reading wanted Coppell as manager.

So, what's going to be announced at 2:30?

[Apocalypse Now]

Will Coppell jump a sinking ship? Or will he have the bottle to stay and face the music?

Let's hope it's the latter.

[Richi Royal]

Is there a possibility they will release the new kit and/ or season ticket prices at the same time as announcing Coppell's decision? they have done it before i think when we signed Kevin Doyle they revealed the new kit.

And also, as someone has mentioned before, they can release the bad news about the season ticket prices to us and cover it up with good news about Coppell.

[TWRoyal]

I've got a feeling this will go one of two ways.

[Hugo Boss]

Coppell will not be present at said press conference which suggests to me he aint gonna be staying.

I think it may have something to do with this too, might be a release of the new kit at the same time. Media coverage and all that.

[Norfolk Royal]

[The Surgeon of Crowthorne]

Coppell will not be present at said press conference which suggests to me he aint gonna be staying.

How do you know? There's nothing to suggest he will or won't be there on the OS.
