Confirmed - Le Fondre to Cardiff

[TBM]

Where did you get this from? - their messageboard?

[paultheroyal]

My sources!!

[TBM]

LOL your "quote" is exactly the one from the Leeds story i posted, from the EP

Le Fondre is Reading FC’s leading scorer this season with 12 goals, but has made just one start in four games under new manager Nigel Adkins.

[TBM]

He will score loads for us next season in the Champ so it would utterly stupid to get rid of him.

'greed but he needs the club to tell him this.....

[paultheroyal]

I know...i was taking the michael.....

But the title is valid - he is off to Hull.

[Jackson Corner]

Another Stephen Hunt wherever he goes relegation follows.

Oh well thats that then. Better get down the bookies.....oh wait they have suspended betting.

Jog on!

[Royalz96]

I dont see how moving to leeds is a forward move in his career

[maffff]

Course it is. Leeds are the BIGGEST CLUB EVAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

Up there with MASSIVE Wednesday, Nottingham "double european cup winners and oxf*rd all else*" Forest, and West Ham "The Academy of Football"/"singlehandedly won a world cup..." United.

*yeah, ok, a league title and a few league cups. But basically a small club that massively overachieved for almost two decades before returning to normality. Because many people remember that period the perception is they are a 'big club', that and their fans don't stop harping on about it.

[Barry the bird boggler]

No issue with him leaving if its to a PL club

Don't want him to go at all of course but then I think NA may have a Billy Sharp in mind for next season.....

Like our fans and the Simod Cup then

Not too worried about Alfie IMO, Hammond isnt going to let him go for anything less than 4-5M, and with that we can get Austin.
Sorted.

Charlie Austin has just bought a house in Newbury on the new racecourse estate...

[Barry the bird boggler]

House sales are not confirmed unless Fochar says they're true

If true that's bloody long commute for Burnley.....

Quite a coup for Newbury, the Hellenic League Premier Division won't know what's hit it

[loyalroyal4life]

fcuk mcderm if he comes in for alf

[Royalee]

LOL - as if Leeds can afford him and we'd sell. They might sign Church though, he's immense...

[6 Million Dollar Man]

If he goes anywhere it will either be to a Premier League club, to improve his wages, or a Championship club that promises more regular starts. McD will surely only be tempted to use him as an impact substitute again...

[URZZZZ]

Where are Leeds going to find the £3 million minimum it'll take to prize him out of Hammond's vice like grip?

Why would he go to Leeds where he'll arguably have less chance of getting promoted than he would here, where a lot of his competition is likely to be gone and we could well revert to 4-4-2 at the lower level where he'll be much more likely to start than he is this season?

Why would we sell at any price to a Championship rival when we're already almost certain to lose Church and Roberts, Hunt is out of contract and Pogrebnyak is a high earner who could well attract interest or want to move? That would leave us with Blackman, who has made the majority of his appearances on the flank, not upfront.

Him going to Leeds would be an outrage.

Buy some new strikers?. Wouldn't call it an outrage TBH. He's only had 1 good month.

How did you come by that information?

Yes they can have Church and Hunt-Roberts will not be seen again.
