Next Reading Manager: Press Conference @ 9:15

[Arch]

Good win % for a lot less games too.

What this really highlights was McD's "gung-ho" attitude, constantly going for the win. More wins, but a lot more defeats.

... not to mention a lot more draws...

Wait a minute.

[Divvy]

Can't wait for us to start dropping it onto Ricky Lambert's head on the back stick.

Oh hang on, we don't have Ricky Lambert.

Hope he's got a plan B

Billy Sharp, Jay Rodriuguez

Jay Rodriguez

Joking aside, Sharp next season would be likely and not bad at all for that level.

[akranes]

4 promotions with 2 clubs over 6.5 years isn't bad.........

[Mr Optimist]

Plus two league titles with the mighty Bangor City.

That Sky comparison.....some of Adkins wins were at a lower level than Brian managed Reading....just saying.

I am personally happy if it does turn out to be true, Adkins is the sensible choice.

[West_Reading]

Means we can now sack Luke Anthony and save costs

That did make me crack up! Sal Bibbo can go too then I guess cos of Adkins' other speciality.

Self tanning?

What's funny about Jay Rodriguez, he's a quality player?

[sandman]

Plus two league titles with the mighty Bangor City. Now he don't work there anymore.

Oh yes, those giants of the lower leagues, Scunthorpe.

Maybe a whoosh moment but the Man Utd of the south coast were in the third division two seasons ago under Adkins' management.

[Simon's Church]

Did you not see Robson-Kanu's header for Wales the other day? He's definitely the new Ricky Lambert.

[Ascotexgunner]

Well the good news is its not Phil Brown. He's gone to South end.

Do keep up Jonny

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Just got in from work to hear the news. GTFI!!

It's Nigel Adkins not Jose Mourinho. More a "oh good we have a manager" than a break out the bunting GTFI.

In your opinion. I think it's a fantastic appointment.

[sandman]

You think everything's fantastic. It's not fantastic, it's not awful, it's just...

[Once were Biscuitmen]

Could have been far worse, two consecutive promotions and seems like a decent chap.

It's the Reading way rolling on really

[leicsRoyal]

It's all a bit Meh from me.

Great we have a manager who is possibly 20% more tactically aware than the last one as long as he doesn't lose the extra 20% that the last one could drag out of the players.

Championship

Effort >>>>>>>>>> tactics

I suppose we've replaced Brian with someone as equally equipped as Brian.

Adkins woah, Adkins woah, he used to manage _ _ _ _ s but now he's got Noel Hunt.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Your dour posts will not ruin this for me. Great appointment. Well done Anton.
