Charles Watts...

Early days but has he got anything right?

Seems to be having a mare already and now it's a Charlie Austin prediction.

Fordham was woeful and would take some beating but...

Think I'm doing a sterling job. At the Watertower at the moment, fishing over a nice cold pint of Guiness

Why would he get anything right tho, tbh - he's just a fan like us, the club wont tell him anything secret....

[Divvy]

Do any of them get anything right? They usually give us what the club gives them, but to his credit he's going looking for stories and he does some proper snooping, unlike the previous guy who clearly read this forum and the papers.

[akranes]

YES !

[paultheroyal]

YES !

Hi Charles

[MouldyRoyal]

What has he gotten wrong so far? He's only been doing it a week.

[genome]

Christ

It's his first week.

[maffff]

So far so good I think. Enjoying the speculation. Articles in coherent English, nice enough bloke and he isn't Jonathan Low.

Not a Reading fan though.

[akranes]

YES !

Hi Charles

hello darling

[Pepe the Horseman]

I like him. Jonathan Low on the other hand, is a massive bell.

[Maxwell Couldnt Swim]

Comes across as a decent sort.

Good luck to him, I would like to shake his hand one day.

[Wizard]

Is he on twitter?

[peeping bernal]

Yes, @charles_watts
May not be a Reading fan but a serious sports fan. Did some serious reporting of some varied sports for the Maidenhead Advertiser, good articles on some odd sports. Certainly time served and deserves the step up.

Not being a Reading fan is not necessarily a bad thing though? Have noticed some retweets of Jonathan Low. Rather getting the impression he is tryi9ng to outscoop the prorper Reading FC reporter, getting his own back for not getting the job?

[sputnik]

He should have stuck to drumming.

Didn't mean to imply it was, was countering a comment up there. Wasn't Fordham a spurs fan or something else originally?

[Pepe the Horseman]

FWIW, I quite liked Fordham, even more so when all the twitter spastics started thinking they were more ITK than him

[Elm Park Pasty]

A prediction? Since when has expressing an interest in constitute a prediction? If the club have asked to be kept informed of offers etc with a view to potentially matching them this is not a prediction that he is going to come here or that we are even going to make an offer, let's face if Huill offered £10M for him we could be informed and decide that's too much.

Jeez, what do you people want? You complain that Fordham only said what the club said to him, but the new guy states a RUMOUR he has heard and you all start rubbishing him within 5 days of him starting the job.
