Rumour - Gary Hooper

[winchester_royal]

If we'd have offloaded Pog by now I think we'd consider 5m, but financially there's no way we can justify that sort of outlay, as well as another 30k a week in wages, when he's still on the books.

Plenty more strikers around who will be considerably better value.

[YateleyRoyal]

I have a feeling the charges will get dropped, or he'll be found not guilty. Rape can be a very difficult thing to prove!

Try telling that to Ched Evans.

Personally, I think Pog deserves another chance.

I know we have two arguments locking horns over the reasons he 'failed' last year, but neither side is conclusive. The only genuine facts are that we didn't create that many chances and the chances he did have he buried for the most part.

With a few younger players stepping up, some new signings and a new manager with a different passing style, Pog could get the service he needs to change a few minds.

I don't disagree, would be delighted if he stayed and IMO would do just as good a job as Hooper, but the key is whether he wants to stay which based on the noises coming from his camp recently is looking pretty unlikely.

Thoroughly bored with all this now. Perhaps one day they'll be a proper concrete development about us signing hooper or sharp or Austin rather than all this vague cluelessness that's been going on for weeks. Not holding my breath though.

Oh. What were the noises?

Dream to stay in the pl blah blah, interest from pl blah blah, not ruling out going back to russia - had a great time there.

Nothing about happy at reading, thats where he is now and looking forward to the season ahead and just wait and see about transfer developments. Combined with the relegation release fee you have to say if anyone wants him he's a gonna

Alright, fella - sit down. I was only speaking about the debate over his ability and people saying "get rid" because he's "shit".

Saying that in caps makes you sound a little juvenile, and maybe a little silly.

[melonhead]

LOL!

MY SENSIBLE INTERNET PERSONA HAS BEEN BLOWN!
