Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

If Pereira gets there first then it’s not a foul. Simple as. He isn’t coming in dangerously, he’s approaching the ball in the same way Gayle is, neither have possession. There was no excessive force etc It’s ok to say the ref made a bad decision. He did. He was conned but he made a bad call. It hap...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

The referee saw a coming together. So he gave it. What he couldnt see is the handball. So he can't give a handball if he didnt see it a handball. Pereira might feel hard done by, but a better lesson to draw from this is, dont rush out and give referees decisions to make. If he sees a coming togethe...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

However, in both cases a Reading player probably made a poor decision to find themselves in a situation where a poor decision could be made by the ref. How is Yids not tripping Gayle a poor decision? And if Gayle doesn't punch the ball, Pereira has done a good job cutting out a dangerous ball over ...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

Of course it’s nothing like a penalty but being generous to the ref, seeing Gayle handball it might have been difficult. Though I’d have thought the first conclusion would have been Perreira got to the ball first which again wouldn’t have been a pen Proper cheating from Gayle though - punch the bal...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

No. Have to agree with GWL that my first reaction is what the oxf*rd is Pereira doing racing out to the edge of his box to a striker running essentially away from goal, when he's never going to get to the ball.first cleanly. And I have sympathy with a ref not seeing a handball there, if there is on...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Derby County (a)

Sutekh Getting the impression that Reading are the Liverpool of the FL in getting on the end of some really miserable ******* **** referees and their loony decisions.


Urgh no. Liverpool get plenty their way, they just boo their eyes out about everything they don’t

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

As has been pointed out on a number of occasions by others, there is limited development potential at the training ground because of protection orders and listed status. Not sure you'd get anything near £30m for the ground either. As a functioning stadium maybe but I don't think the land is worth t...

Re: Embargos, HMRC Payment defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

My gut tells me his pride his hurt and he just doesn't give a shiny fcuk especially with his reported other issues back in China. He is potentially at the stage where he would rather take the business down rather than sell it on to someone else who could make a success of it. Possible that the only...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Neither of which are worth anything like the same value without a functioning club. That would certainly be the obvious assumption. Dai is hardly known for accepting or taking good advice As stated many times, the logical thing to have done would have been to have sold asap when he got bored. But i...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I think my fear is that he has been advised he’ll get more money by selling the training ground and stadium for more if there was no club attached - the club side obviously being likely to lose money over time. So he’ll happily let the club die and sell off what’s left

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I don’t believe Dai has ever had any intention of selling us. He’s been going through the motions and basically there’s nothing we can do about it as he doesn’t give a oxf*rd. He can just let this happen and he’s so far removed from the club he doesn’t care about all of the protests etc. We’re goin...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Wycombe Wanderers (h)

BFTG. I think 98% of people are going to say the same thing about this one. Truly dreadful, insipid, weak first half. I remember the slow start being a feature of the Ince era, to the extent he addressed it in an interview - he said he told them not to do it but they did it time after time. For pro...

Re: Selles In

Having someone desperate to prove himself has worked for us in our circumstances (assuming we stay up). He’s grown as a manager considerably If we’d had a top 3 squad and Dai supporting the team rather than slowly choking it to death then Wilder may have been the right choice. But yeah he’d have wal...

Re: Sporting Integrity

I know it’s not totally the point but a big chunk of that 6m would have been Ejaria’s salary I’m guessing. And he didn’t play for us and since had the contract terminated

So it may end up being a bit lower

(And yeah I know other clubs may have similar but not on 15k p/w)

Re: MATCHWATCH : Carlisle United (a)

Currently would be Knibbs, Azeez, Wing for me but would happily have Bindon and Smith in the mix

Young player would be Bindon, Craig, Kelvin - but again Savage could force his way in still

Re: MATCHWATCH : Carlisle United (a)

Victory again based on the contributions of Wing, Smith and Knibbs.

Those 3 have been phenomenal signings. Knibbs particularly as we didn’t really expect that much from him. Fast becoming a real favourite
