Young and hungry loanees would be good to see. Like others have suggested a wideman or forward would do nicely. Liam Delap (Man City) or Ellis Simms (Everton) two promising players in PL2. We’ll probably look at Benfica / Porto / Sporting knowing our scouts though I'd hope not. We wouldn't be able ...

Snowflake Royal What's the problem with the team, bar Olise it's about the best we can put out?

I think that's the problem - more about the squad than the selection

Royal Ginger Esteves is only the third reading player to wear number 2 in the last 10 years taking it from Chris Gunter. No googling, who is the third man?

Quite a few have looked "number 2", but I don't know about wearing it.

We have Molly Malone, Bill Oddie, Sweet Caroline, Let’s All Do The Chelsea, Terry and June, the Royals Anthem, Five Parkinsons, the Big Bad Wolf, and If You Still Hate Futcher Clap Your Hands, plus we can drone on about 106. No point trying to force a third rate pop song nobody’s actually heard of ...

10 mins gone and it’s already looking like a disgrace. Club not taking the competition or us seriously, I fear. Clubs not taking this cup seriously isn’t new information, and 100% doesn’t just apply to us. Most don’t take it seriously until 1/4 final stages. Tbh, I’m fine with the club treating thi...

The BBC is a publicy owned broadcaster with a public service remit written into it's charter to cover non mainstream subject matter. If you don't like it, subscribe to IfcukingTV instead and see how much inconsequential shit you're bombarded with. You are missing the point. I don't have a problem w...

Nope. Will await to hear what the club have to say about ST renewals. Not interested in watching on iFollow. Just isn’t the same. Yeah. It was fine when it was free, but I found I just had it open in a window and did other stuff. I certainly didn't watch it avidly. Not really caring about the end o...

As someone else said years ago the new manager thing was quite exciting.p, who would we get, what would their plan be, what players will come in and also all of the circus aside, however a club is run its true that if you’re winning games you can, to a degree out the club politics to one side, but ...

The current way would see the owner loaning the club £50 million. I would think that owners knew that money they put in was gone, they might not be so hasty. I'm not sure any owners put money into league football clubs expecting a return. Outside of the biggest clubs, what examples are there in the...

Disagree with that part of FFP. There should be a way for owners to invest as much as they want so long as conditions are applied to the “investments” to stop owners, for example, funding through mortgages and loans and not taking responsibility if they “over-reach” themselves. Yeah. They should be...

Beyond comment or caring any longer. Finally are we about to go into freefall. Been teetering on the edge for a while. The soul of the club has been totally destroyed. The sad thing is that I've not been to a Reading game for six and a half months, and I've not missed it. I just don't feel the conn...

Sorry I'm not an accountant - so basically can the owners do new share issues to inject cash each year and be within FFP? No, you can't use owner investment to bypass FFP Disagree with that part of FFP. There should be a way for owners to invest as much as they want so long as conditions are applie...

My feeling is that fans are moving from anger towards apathy. I've seen a few posts on here trying to defend the decision, but at the end of the day it's just another wild stab in the dark, hoping it works out. What's the old saying - fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Anyone w...

Im completely out of the loop, haven't read any of these threads and just got told this happened by my mum now. What the oxf*rd is actually going on? I'm so confused right now (nice sig.) What happened to Bowen? https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/qikipedia/images/5/5c/QI_-_Nobody_Knows.jpg

It’s the pure arrogance of Dai that gets me...the arrogance that he expects his club to be promoted and the naiveity in how that goal is achieved. Chucking money doesn’t always work, in fact it rarely works in the Championship. It’s a vastly competitive league and it generally takes years of buildi...

What is the objective of FFP? Stop clubs spending beyond their means and screwing themselves/relying upon owners? If that is the objective, it has clearly failed. If the Dais were to walk away now and take the stadium and training ground they own with them, we'd be oxf*rd. Yet we haven't breached F...

Yes, AFC Wimbledon. When Wimbledon effectively ceased to exist, AFC Wimbledon were all intents and purposes the replacement for a folded club. They started playing the ninth tier in 2002, They didn't just replace Wimbledon. MK Dons took there place. Technically, yes, but the the club located in sou...

In all seriousness, how many people are going to watch a make-shift team deep in the bowels of the pyramid at the irredeemable craphole of Scours Lane? With the exception of folded clubs (and FC United), has a single "fans' club" risen from their very modest start? Yes, AFC Wimbledon. Whe...
