Who is our reporter on the ground at the Mad Stad? Shouldn't Melonhead be hanging around the car park or something....

I must admit i find the whole thing pretty tedious now. I might just ignore everything until Wednesday to give the "paperwork/bungs" time to be processed, that is of course if there's anything to report at all.

Lets just hope the club have put a fresh toner in the fax!

Even the media know not to waste their time standing around at the Madejski.

QPR are trying to bring a LB in which might then free up that Suk-Young whatshisface.

LoyalRoyal22 Its quite obvious, the club and the new owners just don't have the money. If they did it wouldn't be difficult to strengthen in one or two areas. I mean, we have made £5m+ on McCarthy and Morrison.


Well the 'new owners' still aren't ratified, so I wouldn't be expecting them to pour millions into a club they still might not yet own. Plus we have no idea how much of that £5m is earmarked for contract extensions. Plus if it's true we borrowed against parachute payments last year, then this year we're going to have to have more money in the coffers just to cover the wages of the players that are still at the club.

THIS ^^^ all day long.

Samrit said on FB he's coming back on 11 September - maybe they're hoping to have it ratified by then?

Maybe he just really liked Bobby Convey (or REdwards). I'm hoping he's at least closer to 20 to ease the pain I feel.

The chances are they are ratified but not disclosing that as it would surely increase buying prices. A bit of poker face going on. In terms of not buying players i'm sure they are trying, Nabil said that two of our targets have turned us down (one for a prem club) you can't force players to join us.
