BraisingsteakRoyal Strange that we bring in these strikers when we're struggling (Afobe, Murray, Vydra, and to a lesser extent Billy Sharp), and they look absolute dump compared to when they're at playing at other teams.

It's almost like their ability is not the actual issue.


I thought the general consensus was Murray was pretty good for us. In fact, Hammond thought he was so good he told us he signed him without actually signing him.

Pepe the Horseman Didn't Afobe come in when we won the league?


True Pepes - but he still got slated on here for being pointless (even though he only made a couple of cameo experiences).

Genome - yes the club thought Murray was decent, but hobnob certainly didn't.

Royal Ginger No one wanted a replay here. Everyone's a loser.


Howe, Madejski and their accountant chums wanted a replay - more money, assuming people can be bothered to turn up!


Not sure they even make a profit on match day with all the nonsense that goes on now ..


Yes. On one hand there's the 3rd round winning prize money, the guarantee of the next round with the possibility of a more lucrative opponent (sorry Huddersfield) or a winnable game giving us more prize money. Not to mention the confidence and knock on effect that might be gleaned from winning.

On the other hand they get to split the proceeds of around 10k people paying a tenner per head. I'll bet "Howe, Madejski and their accountant chums" cartwheeled their way back from the game in excitement.

the board doesn't know its arse from its elbow though
did ok for us though I guess.

calling beniks appearances cameos is overstating it a little.

his biggest appearance was celebrating on the pitch when we went up as though he'd contributed to it in some way. :wink:
