Done deal apparently....

[Sutekh]

So presumably that will be the HMRC off our backs for the first bill anyway.

[HoneyRoastHoax]

Cheerio Alf thanks for the goals.

Really don't believe the twitter ITK army quoting it was for £1m though.

[Gordons Cumming]

Unless I'm very much mistaken, which is possible, this is the first player we've sold to Cardiff since Robin Friday?

Andy Legg?

Was he actually sold?

[RoyalBlue]

Wouldn't mind too much if we could be sure of signing a decent (any!) replacement.

However, that has always been the problem in the past when we were on a more stable footing, let alone now that we are in the mess that Zingarevich and Madejski have got us into!

One proven (at this level) specialist striker left at the club - what a complete and utter joke - All hail the great Madejski!

LOL - you crack me up !!!

[Royal Ginger]

We'll regret this. It's going to pinch every time his name pops up on the vidiprinter on final score, which will be a lot.

[Pepe the Horseman]

When he's scoring against our rivals?

[Royal Ginger]

Goals that aren't ours.

[BraisingsteakRoyal]

Cheerio Alfie. Thanks for the good times.

You were no Shane Long.

[2rAy1]

Real question is, who gets the number 9 shirt?

[Wycombe Royal]

Really not bothered. There is a reason why two managers at this club left him on the bench a lot of the time.

We need the money more than we need him.

[UpThePrem]

Rumours are its only for £1M

I guess our many, many strikers will be fighting over it.

[TBM]

Rumours are its only for £1M

£350k upfront - then £650k in addon's

[Mr ReadingFC]

Gareth McCleary Tweeted him this morning saying

"Just heard the news about good friend @A1F1E9 wish him all the very best #topman #topstriker #goodpartnership pic.twitter.com/YPswW7BnZ3

The firesale is on.

[Maguire]

Decent finisher but otherwise a pretty average footballer. Not really bothered he's gone, although I wish him well.

[Royal Lady]

Sell McCleary by the end of the day for another million, sell Gunter and McCarthy for another million each and we've paid the tax bill - whoop.

[Royalclapper]

ALF for £1m - what a joke.

The fee was probably more like £3m but Reading FC only officially receive £1m.
