ZacNaloen That's a case of being given information and reading more into it than there is.

He saw that these clubs have been granted cat 1 status and Reading weren't on there. Then extrapolated from there (i reckon)


This is the problem with Twitter, there are lots of people getting snippets of information and putting 2+2 together to make 5.

The information might not be wrong but the way it's interpreted can be, and there are lots of people on twitter, and on here, who seem to be swapping accurate snippets and building up a potentially inaccurate picture.

I get the odd bit of information at times, which I keep to myself because it's given in confidence and really is just 'shop floor gossip' from within the club that might or might not be totally accurate. I know that every company I've worked for has a grapevine which is sometimes right, but quite often wrong.

On the Fordham issue, it's all too easy to break gossip on twitter as a faceless fan, but when your a journalist who's job is to sell papers, you don't bite the hand that feeds you and most people who buy the Post do so for the quotes from the players and staff. If he lost their confidence by running his mouth off like the twitterati he'd be out of a job pretty sharpish so he has to be relatively conservative in what he puts to print.

FFS looks like I'm going to have to join Twitter now just so I can keep up to date with the latest, utterly fatuous gossip.

Reading were never likely to be in the first batch of Cat 1 as the take over was only confirmed last month and has only been on the horizon since January and things obviously take a little time to organise.

They are doing their best, but i agree, the infrastructure required will take too long to set up.

It all went downhill when they removed the word "Unfounded" from the forum.
Bring back UR&G is what I say.

Lovely stuff here:
@ReadingFC
Dear @Signings_TDD we have not even been audited yet. Your EPPP 'information' is completely false and unfair on our supporters. #readingfc

@Signings_TDD is a joke..

It seems that if you send certain people made up stories that could be true they then post it as fact and that they recieved it from a reliable source.

Maybe the reliable source has been taking the piss out of them all along??? :wink:

Why not.. It works

I was informed by a Friend who has been at the club for a long time that the take over deal was close and probably happen the following day.. I decided to add a little bit about a deal being on the table for Gylfi.. (because there was I didnt state that it was a deal with reading) and then Bang all these pages about being ITK occur...

I was going to come out initally and say that I made that last bit up but to be fair it was far too much fun watching everyone on here jumping over themselves and getting more confused than usual.

I would appoligise but to be honest is has been the best fun that has been had on this board for a long long time so I shall not :lol: :lol:

So what was going to cause the meltdown? The fact that you intimated that we were in for Gylfi and would then reveal that you made it up? :cry:

Well done for admitting it - you had us all going BigWUM. Of course you will never get away with it again unless you change your user name.

I have been watching people pretend to be ITK since 2004 on here and to be honest I thought bollox to it.. Time to show these children how to perform a proper wind up.

Anyway.. I take my bow.. Thankyou and good night

PS for what its worth I still believe there will be a Massive signing that will cause the board to go in to Meltdown ... :wink:
