Same opinion on this as always - This is sport. He manages a sports team. Wear a tracksuit! You don't need to stand their in a bloody suit!

McDermott is loved by the glorious owners and the fans of Reading FC apart from that Chinese bloke Dave-Royal perhaps. That's a slight exagration of the truth. He is well throught of, yes; but the fans are still very split on his sacking and his re-appointment. Give it a few months, perhaps a bad s...

I do like Brian, and I have to admit to being happy we have someone with integrity again, but I can't shake the fact that he is still a manager with no plan b, who is far too nice for his own good, and he struggles managing players with big egos. This squad has a lot of them now! I just can't see it...

Thought I'd start an alternative thread .... as it's maybe more realistic that the Thais will cut the cloth as this season is not likely to be a promotion winning one. How the oxf*rd did you work that one out? If anything they are more likely to go gung-ho in Jan. From everything I've seen and hear...

From Charles After having three managers in as many years, Reading know this is an appointment they must get right hate cliche'd phrases like that. They could easily get it wrong, then get the one after that right. They could get the next 5 wrong and then get it right. :roll: We're waiting for Harr...

lol

Hopefully means we aren't as interested in BM as the bookies would have us believe. If he was their man, it'd be done and dusted pretty sharpish I imagine.

I'm taking the postitives from that and moving on!

Pearson wont come without his backroom staff, and I doubt we will cough up for that!

Re Alan Stubbs. He is Manager of Hibernian isn't he? A team playing in the Scottish Championship against teams like Alloa Athletic, Livingston, Dumbarton, Raith Rovers, Queen of the South etc etc. Has he the pedigree that we are looking for? And as for Gary Rowett, are we a bigger club than Birming...

blueroyals ..... by hoofing the ball 70 yards in every direction, which was the reason we couldn't hack it in the Prem

Yep, he couldn't adapt, even though he told us how he was learning every week.

We're about to appoint our 4th manager in 3 years.

Mr.Swainey :lol: @ Guy Luzon.

GetReading running with the link too. Oh boy!

Muskrat Will now walk into the Fulham job and watch them fly...

What I'm expecting, but they have apparently distanced themselves from wanting to talk to him..

According to a report in Israeli newspaper 'Haaretz', Guy Luzon is expected to be named Reading FC manager in the coming days.

Who? Ex Charlton failure..

@charles_watts 3h3 hours ago What an ugly, costly mess this has all turned into. Instead of getting compensation, #readingfc end up having to pay out themselves. Exactly this! It's a shame the snake got greedy, otherwise we would have cashed in on what was supposed to be a large fee, and had a new m...

Pepe the Horseman Jimmy FLOLoyd on his way to the Super Hoops.

Bad decision. Why not wait for a stable club who might back you, rather than one in constant upheaval.

Not Reading then?

McDermott
Adkins
Clarke

in how short a spell?

Not even worthy of a page 3!

Steve Clarke wasted no time in claiming the doll at the job centre this morning!

When you get too big for your boots, then have another sacking on your very junior and unproven CV..
