"Takeover complete, not buy EVERYONE".

Surely this goes against your principles as Reading fans who don't want to 'buy' success.


Nah, we're rich, we'll do what we're want, and for that reason, we're gonna come buy Hazard, Mata, and most of all, John Terry.

To the few that we're genuinly in the know - FL, BigMike etc, well done! You've earnt a gold star.

Not quite, his other statement was that a big deal was being put forward to grab Gylfi so until it's success is announced (or that Gylfi has turned down a late move from us) it's only hald a star.

ANTON Zingarevich has completed the first stage of his takeover of Reading FC.

His Gibralta-based Thames Sports Investment company has acquired an initial 51% stake in the club for around £25 million.

The process was finally ratified by the Premier League and Football League earlier today following weeks of investigations into the 30-year-old Russian's background.

Zingarevich, who eventually wants full control of the club, has now joined the Reading FC board along with TSI's Christopher Samuelson and Andrew Obolensky plus Royals chief executive Nigel Howe.

Sir John Madejski will remain as chairman of the board, while Ian Wood-Smith stays on as another director.

The takeover will give manager Brian McDermott the green light to bolster his squad this summer following rumours of a failed £2 million bid for Nottingham Forest defender Chris Gunter recently.

I'm struggling to think of a hilarious Russian themed nickname, akin to Chelski, that we can now apply to Reading. Anyone got any good ones?
