I just fired this off on Lady Sasima's FB page.
Bitterly disappointed that you have sacked Brian McDermott. The football club need a steady hand and Brian WAS Reading FC - other managers come and go, but have no real link to the club. Brian was different. His best work was working with the youngsters or spotting very cheap youngsters who would go on to become great footballers. If you have no plans to spend more money on players for the forthcoming season, it is precisely these younger players that we will need to nurture. I feel the club have made a terrible mistake and not given Brian enough time. He should have, at least, had a full season in order to work with these players and try and prove himself. Sacking a manager after only 4 and a bit months is preposterous. I have been supporting Reading FC for 35 years, home and away, but I am not renewing my season ticket now. Such is my dismay.
Ian Royal - are you available to join me and Bendy at the car park for sandwiches and coffee and a "Down with all this" banner?
