Oh wow!!!

Now this is a surprise for everyone.

His agency is Team SHM. Our own Stephen Hunt Management no less.

Are we sure that Noel isn't still at Reading FC??

Brogue Medical Monday. He had 5 offers and has chosen us.

Well, he's Irish. But not with Stephen Hunt's Agency

No surprise that an Everton player is being linked, especially now that Nick Hammond has the responsibility of handling the "ins and outs" at Everton. His brother may not be the manager here, but no doubt he's still in touch with a lot of our coaching staff, having been our Director of Foo...

His market value is €650k (£550k), according to Transfermarkt and his contract expires in May 2027. So that almost definitely rules out RFC. Stephen Hunt isn't listed as his agent either.

Looks like the real deal.

Sorry, I haven't kept up with all this news. Does this mean that we have only Gunter, Mcleary and Baldock left of those Gomes wanted to clear out? Don't worry, the Chinese Transfer window opens in November (1st maybe), so we'll probably send them there and get Aluko back. Won't that please everybody...

Cherries agree Stacey Deal Bournemouth have agreed to sign Jack Stacey from Luton Town for £4m, according to Sky sources. Stacey is expected to undergo a medical on Monday ahead of completing the move to the Vitality Stadium. Just hope that we had a percentage sell-on included when we sold him to th...

I used to do a football pools collection round in Tilehurst and John's wife did a coupon every week (players were not allowed to do the pools) and I used to stop at their place (on Garston's Park-it was marriage second time round for John) for a chat, nearly always about football. We left Tilehurst...

Victor Meldrew An interesting one-I wonder if it is a case of wanting to be back down near London and Barry Hunter having a part to play.

It was Barry Hunter who was instrumental in Tiago Illori coming. Is he using his old club as a dumping ground for Anfield's misfits?

Meanwhile looks like compensation talks have hit a few glitches and Mr Gomes will not be announced before Monday. It's either that or he's been diverted and gone missing in the Gatwick aftermath. Debut game. Millwall away. What's the obsession with Gatwick? There are at least 4 airlines that fly fr...

Heard bits of a programme on Radio Berkshire one morning recently. Tonight I managed to find it on the "Sarah Walker Show" which was on 15/10/2018. Here's the link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p06mr0l1. Listen from 1:11 to 1:54. It includes interviews with local Journo's from that ti...

Good, hope Evans stays get real, he is going. The Sunderland chairman has tweeted that the bid has been accepted, and the Sunderland Echo says this: The bid for Evans has been accepted, with the player expected to undergo a medical once he returns from Reading's pre-season tour in Austria. Tough ti...

Didn't know he'd moved into Rugby League and had a hair transplant.

Reading would receive a series of add-on payments throughout the duration of the former Leicester defender's ...

Should have been No. 13. You the fans who have had to put up with such crap all season. Loads more effort than any of the overpaid prima donnas who were selected on that list.

Maybe next year the organiser can remember them..

Liam Moore caught in possession 4 times, cos he has no Paul McShane to pass to.

Hopefully he will be encouraged to spend some time coaching the younger strikers, a superb example for them to follow.
