Re: Welcome back Brian?

There was a Jaguar something or other in the hotel car park last night - with the initials BRY on the end - this means that McD is holding out until he can secure Brynyar as his number 2 - or something. If there is a prize for baseless speculation, you win. Erm isn't it that actually McDermott's ca...

Re: Welcome back Brian?

New betting odds Brian McDermott out to 3/10 from 1/6 and Stuart Gray surprisingly second favourite https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CV3wfMXWoAEiKIm.png I'll give you that Stuart Gray is a bit of a surprise but are we just assuming that the current manager of Barcelona would always naturally be in the m...

Re: Would London Irish stay at Madejski if they get relegate

I think the rent is only about 500k p.a. I'd imagine after a period of relative success LI have enough reserves to stay for a couple of seasons until they come back up. After our first relegation from the PL, I was appalled at how little rent we got, given the state of the pitch was a contributing f...

Re: Who do you want to replace Clarke?

I'm surprised Brendan Rodgers isn't being linked more strongly, given how well it worked out last time round... Rodgers managed Reading from 2010-2012, leading the club to the Premier League through the play-offs http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3349794/Swansea-City-want-Brendan-Rod...

Re: Reason for Clarke's turnaround

Obviously all media stories come with a large pinch of salt. But according to BBC Berkshire the BBC did ring up Fulham and were told they would not be wrong that Steve Clarke would be the man being unveiled at their planned press conference. So it must have been a lot closer than just high level tal...

Re: Steve C reception

Was hoping this thread was to do with a new room SC was having built on his house I heard he's cancelled the plans because he's not getting that £ 80,000 anymore. (It was a big room) (It had to fit his head) tbh he didn't really need it anyway, what with him already having an A Reception and a B Re...

Re: New manager poll

Change it so you can vote for 3 then take the leading 5 candidates at the end of the day and make a short list to see who wins. The result will, of course, then be binding on the club. My three : Pearson Rowett Moyes Good idea, done! Ok someone decided to remove the poll. Perhaps they know Clarke i...

Re: Will Nick Blackman sign a new contract?

I would imagine that if he keeps scoring in every game that it is possible we could sell him in January to a lesser PL side. Of course if we are in the top 2 we would keep him for the season whatever, and if we then went up he would no doubt sign a bumper deal. Just hope hes not learnt from HRK just...

Re: Rumour - Nathaniel Chalobah

I know you're just mucking about, but Clarke has done everythihg that the combined might of HNA said he needed to do ad then a little bit more. All he has left to do is get that 40 goal a season striker and he has said that is a work in progress. If we do end up with Hernandez and Chalobah then I'd...

Re: Hugely improved

If we look at the only competition that Clarke has been in charge of the whole way through his record (after 90 mins) is W4 D2 L0. More to the point the team selection and tactics were spot on in all 6 of those games. You are not telling me he is just a number 2 I'm afraid. Of course the league form...

Re: RUMOUR - Victor Anichebe...

I think he'd be a good signing in the championship. If you consider the silly money Bristol city are bidding on relatively untested players then to get a player of his ability and experience would be a coup and you would imagine he wouldn't cost a lot. Bit cheeky of Clarke to bid 500k for him this t...
