unless of course they have lives/are busy-cant get to a computer or telly
perhaps they are on holiday etc

admittedly its a waste of time unless those things are happening
i often get the team texted to me as im listening to them announce it on BBCRB-at that point it does seem a little silly and pointless.

I have very good reasons for using the service

re: not signing anyone else unless someone leaves

didn't coppell say a couple of days ago that they are actively looking to bring players in,and he made no mention of waiting for players to leave first ?

What Coppell says changes all the time.

Remember how he spent the whole of November/December telling us how many players he was gonna bring in in January?

Coppell did say that, plus he said he had learned from his mistakes. He also said he would only sign players to replace those that leave, well have we replaced Little and Oster yet ?

One thing about Coppell is he rarely if ever says what he WILL do. Quite a lot of " I'm thinking of", "i perhaps should have", "I'd be within my rights to", " I could", " I should", " I might" etc etc etc.

He also stated many times that he has been too loyal to the players - yet he still refuses to replace them with new signings.

He also said we needed to reduce the squad so I rather doubt he'll be replacing each player. Maybe he feels Kebe and Henry adequately replace those two. Maybe he'd be right (I rather doubt it)

We only need a left back if Shorey goes. We only need a midfielder if Harper goes with Karacan coming through. We only need a winger if Kebe really is as shit as many of us think and Henry isn't up to th ejob full time either.

A big striker would be desireable, but is not essential. Providing we don't play in a way that requires one. Afterall we managed in the Prem the season we finished 8th without one. (Bar a few games)

.......and on BBCRB this morning, Tim Dellor reporting from Sweden said that Coppell has said that no more players will be coming in....unless anyone leaves !

So there it is ...another summer of total anti-climax which as a Reading fan we are so used to!

I prefer my climaxes to come during the season rather than before a ball is kicked in anger.

Well....given that Harps and Shorey are both likely to leave......I think we will see more signings

On the Bikey speculation Team board thread Coppell is quoted as saying maybe one more will leave.

We'll have to wait and see what happens. Just like normal

I recall that most of the "we'll look to push on to the next level" and "we'll look to strengthen by 2 or 3 players" nonsense came from Squeaky and JM. Not that SC wasn't spouting utter sh*te at the same time!
