Rasiak has left..

[YoungRoyal]

Has signed for Greek side AEL Limassol.

Don't know terms of the deal!

[Eastkentroyal]

There is a compilation video of some of his goals on the Limmasol website

[M Brook]

'Greek'? thought Limassol was in Cyprus which has its own league.

[Y21_Royal]

Not a massive surprise, hopefully the funds will help us get a centre half.

Wish him the best of luck, I never really rated him but he got some useful goals for us

Polish striker Grzegorz Rasiak has signed a two-year contract with the fifth team of the Cypriot league last season, AEL Limassol-I.

1931-year old Rasiak, who is graduate of Poznan Olympia for the past six years has appeared in the English leagues - at Derby County, Tottenham Hotspur, Southampton, Bolton Wanderers, Reading and Watford. In Poland, he rode the Warta Poznan, GKS Belchatow, Odra Wodzislaw and Dyskobolia. The national team played 37 events, scoring eight goals.



No loss for me. Wonder if we got a fee??

[Terminal Boardom]

TB awaits the vitriol to spew forth from Royalee

[East End Lady]

Apparently on a free tho - so no doubt will be told still no funds for a CB we need

[EASTENDER MARKY]

More proof that Polish workers are quitting the UK.

[Jeffers217]

Superb news- cheerio donkey! It says on the OS that he was fairly expensive for us to keep?!?! What kind of world do we live in? Or what kind of wage did Rodgers put him on?!

OS says he left on a free...

[Focher]

i liked Rasiak, gave us different dimension.

Most will be happy but i think its a bad move by us.

So an expensive wage-earner gone... enough for a CB?

Not according to the OS:

With one or two injuries at centre back, is there a chance of bringing Zurab Khizanishvili back?
BM: We haven't got the means to do that.

So you can't snap him up on loan?
BM: Once again, we haven't got the means to do that.

Brian has clearly been dictated to about this whole situation regardless of the fact that the WHOLE club apart from the very top managment see it as a necessary way of us moving forward. Surely he wouldn't be on that much of a higher wage than Rasiak?!

[brendywendy]

liked old razza

oh well

move on

[Alan Partridge]

Massive problem for Reading that above line. Rasiak going pff won't make much difference squad player. Had a knack of scoring some goals at vital times but BM prefers the others to him.

This is the first summer i can recall where Reading really haven't signed anyone of note. Griffin and Williams were absolute essentials who neither cost a great deal of money. There's always been the one stand out signing or the fine tuning of the squad gone on, Reading are desperately short of quality at the back and up front. If they go all season with this squad then their only concerns this year should be avoiding relegation.

[gazzer, loyal royal]

He was frustrated with a lack of football and was the highest earner in the current squad so a good move for both sides

[brendywendy]

when will this fire sale end?


i for one am disapointed i wasnt informed of rasiaks departure before i bought my season ticket

Not on your nelly.

And a worrying sign in my opinion. We're willing to let him go for free just to get him off the payroll. We must be seriously strapped at the moment. More seriously than many of us thought.

Impossible. Reading are a well run club. They tell us so all the time.

No one runs a better ship than Reading.
