In true Federici fashion, I'll try and think of three excellent comments and then let a poor comment in at my near post.

39th in all time appearances for Reading. Far more good games for us than bad, good luck to him, and thank you for your service to the club.

Not in the same league as Shaka, Marcus or Steve Death but a decent keeper for us , a good shot-stopper but not a commander of his area.
Ironically the same could be said about Boruc.
Good luck at Bournemouth-I hope they haven't told you that there is good surfing down here because the attempt to create a reef/ surfing area has failed dismally.
Also I hope you have a better experience of a Russian owner.

Tbf he wouldn't be nearly that high if he'd got his way and his 'come and get me' plea on Sky Sports had worked!

Decent championship keeper but little more, hence Bournemouth were the only ones that wanted him for free.

Shaka and USA he is not.

Usage suggests it is. Needing to be able to beat up America suggests it isn't.

Feds a true Aussie who has never forgotten his roots, celebrating or sharing disappointment of Australian Cricket results, ten years spent between the Reading posts or support on the bench, leaving Reading now to prepare for when he can no longer leap across a goal, Bournemouth is an ideal retirement place for many ask Harry!

Feds suffered like most goalkeepers the issue of when they make a mistake it is costly, thankfully Feds made a lot more terrific saves than mistakes. Last season saw Feds at his busiest as the defence had so many holes , but he leaves Reading with a gap to fill, that currently does seem to have an automatic successor. :lol:

Good on Feds!

I suspect his to be wife will try and ensure Feds is busy in Bournemouth in one capacity or another.
