Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (h)

Absolutely no shape to the team, poor individual performances, they don’t seem motivated and I can see us losing it That accurately reflects where our club is right now. Forget the league position, The attendance, the spirit etc, mirror it. Perhaps the players have started to wonder if they are flo...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (h)

Royals and Racers 7975(291)


Says it all

Dai's fingers are wrapped around the *costly* football club's throat.
The assets : stadium, training ground, emerging young players remain.
All for him

Re: CONFRIMED: Latest rumours Confrimed as Unconfrimed

Yes though most of these owners are gamblers to some extent aren’t they? All think they’ve got the magic secret to make it work and bring success. Dai when he bought us just thought throw a load of money and we’ll go up without doubt any kind of diligence on where the money was going It does happen...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (a)

No chance of us going up at all so it’s just hanging in there this season til the clown sells up - if he ever does :o :o :o :o I don't even want to imagine how results in the Champ would be if we were somehow to get promoted with the current set up. The sale HAS to happen before even contemplating ...

Re: TAKEOVER MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT BE CONFIMRED THIS WEEK OR NEXT

I don’t know how to break this to people, but Dai doesn’t give a shit. This is just another irritant to him, not a priority, and he really doesn’t care what you call him in the local paper. Nor is the Chinese Communist Party particularly vexed about Reading either, before anyone suggests going down...

Re: Rival Watch

Er, that’s not likely Can we have both teams to lose, please ? Agreed. Oxford, for my money, are a one man team tbh. Lose Brannagan and they fall apart. That said he has proved over and again he is ultra loyal. Joey Beauchamp was ultra loyal to Oxford, even when he did move he couldn't settle and c...

Re: Who do we want to play next season?

Definitely up for a schlepp to Barrow. I was also at that game in 72 at EP when vouchers were issued for the Arsenal cup game. 52 years ago. Yikes. So was I, AR. Over 11000 came for that voucher. Was the term "plastic" or "gloryhunter" or a 70s equivalent a thing then? Ab-so-blo...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

How different is that to the times before football was invented in 1992 though? Teams having a successful period and rising up to the top division for a while then dropping back down the leagues for a while has happened throughout the past 150 years (Wolves, Portsmouth, Burnley etc). In the 70s/80s...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I was in the town end at EP, with another 4000 die hards. Wasn't the Town End the away end? Very Early seventies, pre-segregation. I can remember a game vs. Sheff Weds around that time, can't be exact about the date, but I remember their star player was called Roger Wylde. By kick off there must ha...

Re: The 24/25 Season of Optimism Thread

For me, the most positive thing to come out of this season is the re-connection between the fans and the people on the pitch. We all know that you can't expect to see your team every single match, we do however expect to see effort and commitment from the players, and we're getting that now after wh...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

My tuppence worth! I think that the Americans (as in Wrexham) are attempting to draw locals back to the game, Wrexham has good transport links to both Liverpool and Manchester. How often can they get tickets to see the big clubs and the cost associated with this, invest in a small club with big amb...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

The sweet spot is rich enough to invest well, but not so rich they can afford to piss it all away and it not matter to them. You want them to need success so they will take their decisions on how to invest seriously. I think we could reasonably argue that our club is indeed in the "sweet spot&...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Events off the pitch will be be what they'll be. Just need as to get as many points on the table as possible from the remaining games. Remaining a League One club for next season is all that matters. That's a huge unwanted pressure on the players and the footballing staff . LOL Our league position ...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

It shouldn't block any sale of the club/stadium to any potential owner as the club don't own the training ground any more due to Dai's shiftiness, so club is just a name. Now Dai could try and throw that in and muck things up with the alleged deal but if this is all as people expect, Dai has a very...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Umm, maybe the main buyers didn't WANT Bearwood? Let's see, can we buy your club, but we don't want to buy where the club trains. Yes that works. It makes perfect sense if the training ground is a money pit. Also knocks £20m off the asking price. Fantastic facilities,yes but a complete white elepha...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

Reading are in advanced talks with a North American group to buy the club, Sky Sports News understands. The prospective deal would see the club change hands and their ground – Select Car Leasing Stadium – would also be sold. Just goes to show what an utter disgrace Dai is, if a deal to buy the club...
