MmmMonsterMunchP!ssed OffIan Royal You'd have to be a total bellend to argue that what a manager does after leaving reading has any bearing on measuring their success in relation to Reading. Rodgers could go on to win every tournament he enters with Liverpool for the next 20 years and he'll still not be in our top 10 managers because his performance here was poor.
Doesn't mean he can't be successful elsewhere or a good manager. Doesn't mean he can't be the most succesful manager to have ever managed reading. But that's not the point. That's not being Reading's most successful / greatest / best manager. It's just a coincidence that he's also managed us.
It's like saying Les Ferdinand is our most successful ever player (for example). Bollocks.
Saying Les Ferdinand is the most successful player to have played for Reading wouldn't be total bollocks though would it.
btw terrible cameo on MOTD at the weekend.
Yes it would. Martin Keown?
tbf they came to Reading as a pair, therefore it would only be right to make them joint winners.
