Is everyone sure the sale has actually been confirmed as all I read from it is that there are still some legal formalities to go through and the EFL have granted yet another extension. This is the line that has me a tiny bit concerned : The EFL has now also extended the deadline for Dai Yongge to di...

In his post match chat, Ruben seemed convinced the new ownership is going ahead but it takes time to dot the Is and cross the Ts.

He also said the money from the Femi Azeez sale could be used to bring in a new player.

This makes for depressing reading. Its from Sky Germany:- Despite interest from a considerable number of parties, Loitz is understood to have offered Yongge the highest bid. However, the Chinese owner is not making the process easy, as Loitz explained to Sky Germany: “Mr. Dai put the club up for sal...

Hound Well it’s a win. Doesn’t sound convincing and fairly meaningless in the grand scheme but all good

It does mean we are £47K better off though

Sutekh Back in the 1960s how many Reading fans dreamed of Puskas, Moore and Pelé playing for the club?

Wasn't it 1956 when Puskas ran rings, with Hungary, around the England team? I remember watching that match in B&W on TV

Old Man Andrews Players just couldn't give a toss could they? The badge on their chest means nothing to them.

Absolutely and should we go down they know they would be sold to another Championship club so they have nothing to worry about.

Chuckle Brother

Awayawayaway The obsession with our 106 is tragic.

It was done, who really cares if it's beaten?

I do. So that's at least one person.

+1

It is going to be one of those seasons

So no one signed today. Still a striker short unless we go into the loan market later on. Will we live to regret that?

Excellent news and none of these players will be distracted by worrying about their contracts in the New Year.

We saw in the previous seasons how boardroom uncertainty can affect the squad - its got to. Not according to Adie it doesn't. I made that point to him today referring to Steve Coppell's quote of a month ago but he wouldn't have it! Said we had been on a great run and were in brilliant form! I can't...

There must be Something strange going on behind the scenes? because if there wasn't, then Tiago Ilori would have been confirm at the beginning of the week and also would have started last night! I believe that was part of Stam's frustrations last night, he didn't have Tiago as an option. Probably t...

Evans on as JVB injured in the warmup

Unless something else happened off camera that we didn't see. Pretty bizarre to ban Williams - who was on the end of head butt. So by that decision - players on the receiving end of violent conduct should also be banned for 3 games. The FA are jokes :lol: Williams accepted the same charge so got th...

Nameless 2-1 Royals

Ref refuses to give WBA multiple penalties due to HRK having dug up the penalty spot and hidden it.

floyd__streete Walsall are absolute gash, 4-1 Reading.

Well that's put the mockers on it! Therefore 1-0 Walsall

More interference from the Thai's then. CW confirms BM said this is a Thai signing, not his. As was Ferdinand, Sa, Hurtado. For AZ it was Pog and Williams (?). It's just ridiculous. BM gets judged on results but doesn't have full control of who comes in, or what type of charachter is brought into t...

I am sure the owners and in particular Pieroj are having a lot of influence on whom we buy and sell. I am certain I read somewhere that Brian had no say in the sale of Blackman, it was forced on him. That was a quote from Brian himself! You probably read it on here and it was probably posted as bai...

Dave-Royal Sa has said this morning good bye to his team mate. so leaving the club.

Yes I saw that too, definitely gone.
