Focher 'Coppell stays and brings Omar "home"'

All the way from Baltimore?


Having Omar in the dressing room won't do a lot for team morale.

Sorry boys and girls, but SC is defo leaving the club, 100%

Whether that is now of next season I don't know, but certainly in the next 100 years, he will leave the club.

YHIHF!

I think this has been mis-reported. I bet that the conference is to address claims that Coppell is being checked over by a Chinese Dentist and that he is feeling a little pain in one of his molars.

On a serious note, hopefully Steve Coppell staying and that fool Humpty Hammond will fall onto his sword, lots of them.

I have a real problem when a Club recruits a player that ends of leaving and the said player makes the comment "I will never join a club again before meeting the manager". That is the fault of the player and also the Club's infrastructure. I hope that this "link" is fixed for all future transfers.

On a not so serious note...

- The Emperor will be announcing that for any fans to visit the Emperor's O-Ring, then all previous RFC shirts will be banned. There will be new kit, new sponsors and only kit that is emblazoned with the Coca-Cola logo will be allowed.

- Children's season tickets will automatically be facing a £200 increase which is for automatic conscription into the "Young Royals". Each child will receive a random bobble head figure of a player from RFC as part of the is package.

- A new scheme called "Senior Royals" will be announced. This again is an automatic season ticket price increase of £500 per person for free conscription into this scheme. Every member of this will receive a free BBC Radio Berkshire sticker.

- Finally, the Premiership wall is to be re-established as the Championship Wall. Every fan that has brought a brick will be facing a simple automatic charge of £750 to have it removed - this is compulsorily. There will be a "buy back" option when you can then pay to have your brick replaced back into the Championship Wall at £500, rather then the standard £550.

- Kingsley the club mascot is being replaced by Uri Geller who will be there at every game, home and away to parade around the pitch and perform his magic.

Sure he's not trying to extract more mileage from the situation by just filling in time?

Brace yourselves!

The Dalai Lama arrived into the country this morning and considering he stays in Tilehurst whenever he visits England i suspect he has taken abit of a fancy to the club and is being announced as either:

(a) New Manager
(b) New Chairman

less than 3 hours to go now.
Is there any way that I can watch or listen to this press conference via Internet?
Or can any of Hob Nober be there to make a report to this site?

BBC reporting that BBC Radio Berkshire will be covering the event. I'm got a meeting at 2:30 :evil:

BTW, Does anyone have a copy of the letter that appeared here 5 years ago... the spoof manager application letter. I used it and got a reply from Howe. Ta.

What channel is that? I think I've got Satan-ta Sports News and I can watch it on my Slingplayer. Have Sky Sports News announced if they'll be covering it?

Why would you have a press conference to say he's retired from RFC.
It's the most obvious thing ever that he's staying.
