Confirmed - Le Fondre to Cardiff

[Unbelievable Jeff]

Not disappointed to see him go, thought he was much better than he actually is.

Pog > Alf all day long

[Tony Le Mesmer]

Err. Kitson and Doyle were both better than Forster. As was Long for half a season. And totally different player to ALF.

Forster is in the top 10 2nd tier strikers of all time mate.

By what yardstick exactly? Most offsides? Most spectacular goals?

You're a little bit deluded.

Give yourself a break Ian. You are hopelessly embarrassing yourself now.

1M for a championship proven, English goalscorer to a potentiaLOL playoff rival is a bit of a joke to be fair. 18 months ago he was spoken about being on the fringes of the England squad ffs...

Even with a year left on his contract it should have been closer to 2.5M imho.

We only paid £300k for him so even if we 'only' get £1m for him this represents excellent business given he's in the last year of his contract. I don't think the price will have any reflection on our current financial situation - it's more that NA clearly doesn't want him here and the player wants a move for regular football.

Wow! Warped logic that could have come straight out of the Reading FC Media department.

So I pick up a Rolex cheap, sell it for £2K and it is excellent business, despite the fact that the true value of the watch was £4K?! Yes, he did only have a year to run on his contract but even with only a year left, proven goalscorers like him surely command more than £1M. True he wasn't Adkins favourite player and ALF didn't like benchwarming but I don't think Adkins would have been in a hurry to get rid of him unless guaranteed someone better in return (and I doubt he trusts any guarantees at present!). Logic would suggest that the low price had everything to do with the well publicised financial mess that the club is currently in.

Fuck off, Adam.

Why on earth would he want to leave Reading and our wonderful supporters?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Because he's a money grabbing, Judas pcunt?

If he expects boos I think he might be in for a surprise.

I bet Cardiff are gutted not to have landed Pog instead

As if we haven't got enough problems, this illustrates perfectly the severe handicap of having a Grade A twat as our manager, not to mention legions of even bigger twats in our fan base.

I'd like to donate my seat to Mrs Adkins for all of next season.........................it will be a tough assignment but she must be used to it after all these years.

[ItsAdzy]

Anyone want to hazard a guess at the fee? Given our current financial state I reckon £1 - 1.5m would have been a good price.

Jesus Christ.

[kwik-silva]

Daily Mail reported £1m. Wouldn't be surprised if that were true.

[Royal Ginger]

If he expects boos I think he might be in for a surprise.

Why? Are we chucking stuff too?

[photographer]

I'll say 2.5million.

The unfortunate thing about ALF is all he knew was how to shoot well. He was average at everything else. Pog is a better striker (and would have been top scorer if ALF didn't take all the penalties)

Just hope we don't play cardiff in January.

[kwik-silva]

No point booing the bench

BURN
