If we are aiming to get back into the Prem then we don't want to go signing a player who will be good for a season and then won't be able to hack it if we do go up as we will then need to sign another player in that position. Makes sense to sign a younger player such as Liam Fontaine who has proved himself at this level ( Championship ) and has plenty of time to develop.

Why would Liam Fontaine want to come to us. Bristol City are a far more ambitious club than us.

Hmmm, Gary Johnson or Steve Coppell...I wonder who he'd rather play under.

Give the likes of Hunt were on 25k a week when we were in the Prem and a lot of Bristol City's players will be on comparatively low wages having only played in the Championship for a year, I find that somewhat hard to believe.

Norfolk Royal Why isn't anyone suggesting we take Hareiderson as part of the deal?


Because he's essentially a centre back and we've got loads of them.

Streets I'll be in the minority but I would love the adulation of the supporters of the club I loved, but then Shorey isn't Reading born and bread.


In which case Lampard would have stayed at WHU and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Chelsea to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Ince would have stayed at WHU and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Manure to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Rooney would have stayed at Everton and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Manure to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Cantona would have stayed at Leeds and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Manure to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Dixon would have stayed at Reading and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Chelsea to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Webb would have stayed at Forest and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Manure to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Fabregas would have stayed at Barcelona and enjoyed the adulation of the supporters of the club he loved and not moved to Arsenal to the adulation of the supporters of the club he got to love...

In which case Steve Bull would have stayed at Wolves and faded into obscurity...

To be honest, I'm glad that a number of clubs are in a bidding war for Shorey; it means we will get more money for what is basically an unhappy player, who doesn't want to play for the club at the very time we need everyone who goes across the white line to be 100% focussed on helping Reading FC achieve success.

Agreed, howver I am concerned we will not replace him externally and look to within the squad to solve that problem. Unless Glodbourne has developed into a fine player in the last 6 months are so...it is hard to see a solution within the current squad.

Nicky Shorey makes me so angry.Look at Stephen Hunts reaction to relegation he said he felt a sense of loyalty to Reading for making him what he is, Shorey cant back his bags quick enough.

one message for you Nicky oxf*rd off and play somewhere else

Would have been a good deal if we hadn't brought Hunt in. Can't see us wanting another striker when a left back is clearly a priority.
