Presumably this season is a write-off and the ambition of the Thais will become known in the summer transfer window but if HRK is offered yet another 3-year contract then we will know that they are more interested in property development rather than team development.

genome How anyone can call any RFC season a write off in January, considering past achievements, is beyond me.

No its just that every season is a car crash
It may seem like that to newcomers like yourself but in the last decade I've seen us win two league titles and spend 3 years in the Premiership.....

As they say in the world of investment "past performance is no true guide to future performance".
Do you seriously believe that this lot are about to make a challenge with Kanu leading the way?
In true Keegan style I would luv it if it were to happen but apart from that brief spell after the Ipswich game we really don't look up to much do we?
If we make 4 or 5 signings in the window it could happen again but otherwise........
Please feel free to log this and come back to it gloatingly in May.

I didn't say it was definitely going to happen, but I also can't say it's definitely not going to happen, especially considering past post-January runs of form with squads we thought were average at the time.
I see no point in writing off the entire season in January when we are 8 points off the play offs.
It is if you sell your top striker

Royal_jimmy So Bournemouth are going to sign Afobe for £10m.
Why can't Reading pay proper money that players are worth and Bournemouth are an even smaller club than we are. If Bournemouth can find money to buy players then why can't we?
In the prem we wouldn't even pay £5m for a decent player.
Why are we so tight in investing on the right player?

Victor Meldrew I'm not sure what happened to FFP for Premier League clubs (Bournemouth are still waiting to hear how much they will be fined for breaking Championship rules last season) but for the moment Bournemouth are steaming ahead spending money to try to stay up and collect £100 million or whatever the TV money is.

We have an option to buy Vydra.

I won't copy and paste the whole lot here but here's a link which actually uses Bournemouth as an example.

Bayer are relocating their offices from Newbury to Reading..... Green Park IIRC, which means a large company with a history of getting involved with their local football team will be based very near to a local football team - Might be an opportunity there, as long as we don't have to change our name to Bayer Reading.
