Re: Hunt out.

Nah stick with Hunt, this team just needs time to gel.

Would be a bit silly to sign players for a manager and then give him just 4 games to get it right.

Re: BFTG - AFC Wimbledon

I agree with all of this BUT I think Noel has to change as well. Playing Wing as as a DMF like a quarterback is insane with Wings talent. Wing has a 10 on his back....play him as a 10..not in a position where he is toothless. When he was advanced and got a bit of space we looked better and he even ...

BFTG - AFC Wimbledon

Goals change games. For the first 20-25 thought we looked pretty decent moved the ball around well and got into some dangerous positions on the pitch without taking on the opportunity to shoot or drive into the box. I feel we are moving the ball box to box pretty well but when we get into that final...

Re: BFTG - Huddersfield

We didn’t look too bad today and certainly an improvement on Lincoln. Felt we got in some dangerous positions on the pitch without turning it into a chance. Generally pleased with the new signings. Think we just need to give this team some time to gel and things will start moving in the right direct...

Re: Up to date Selles poll - in or out?

I don’t think there is much point in making a change until we have a new owner in place and when that new owner is in place I’d expect they would also want their own manager in. I’ve not totally given up on Ruben, generally thought we have done alright in the home matches but feels like we are now e...

Re: Ruben Selles it is

I wanted someone with experience and the Chris Wilder link was the stuff of dreams, however as more and more bad news came out of the club getting a decent manager with good experience has looked unlikely. Fair play to Selles for picking us in our current state, ultimately his success will come down...

Re: Division one things to forward to……..

Key that a new manager is found and appointed within 2 weeks of the end of this season, really don't want to wait until July before finding the club have found the next Bullivant/Clement/Gomes/Paunovic/Ince. If we are looking for unemployed managers I would hope we already have our man lined up. It...

Re: Season Tickets 23/24

I would like to renew but think I will wait to see who we hire as manager and what signings we make. If we hire a manager with experience of the league or a young coach with the aim of developing players it’s something I can get behind. But if we hire a random foreign manager with no experience of t...

Re: Division one things to forward to……..

Obviously getting relegated would be a disaster, but I don’t fear League 1. We just have to face facts, that is the level we have been playing at.

I hope it gives us the opportunity to lead with more of our younger players in the squad & actually build something over a longer period.

Re: STH, will you renew next season?

Undecided, I need to see a future for this team, bored of operation rebuild every summer and a club full of loan players. Appreciate it’s been hard under an embargo. If we get the point deduction I am not sure I can trust the owners going forward.

Re: Ince out!

The Murty rumour is an interesting one, bring in a development coach to develop our academy players and maybe some other academies cast offs and sell for decent money and then reinvest in the team. It’s a pretty solid long term plan but also very risky and not sure our fans will have the patience fo...

Re: Points Deduction AGAIN

Surely in January we would have been trying to sell anyone we could if we knew this was about to happen? Instead we added 1 to the squad and it was only the squad size preventing us adding more. Assume someone in back office at the club has made a massive error. No smoke without fire and I can only ...

The mission at the start of the season was to keep Reading FC in the Championship and we are well on track to achieve this. We are 1 win away from equalling the same amount of wins from last season with a lesser squad and we have a terrific home record. Like it or not progress is being made. This s...

Re: PInce - Concerns Developing - Is He Confused?

No concerns over Ince. One of the favourites to go down with the bookies and currently looking like we are 4/5 wins from safety. Also 4th best home form in the league is giving me great value for money on my season ticket. There will be bumps in the road but surely that’s to be expected given our ci...

Enjoyed the game yesterday, we may have lost some players but the signs are there that we look a more functional team. Thought we saw out the last 20 minutes very well, Lumley makes such a difference when he can come out and claim crosses. Long was brilliant up top, won so much in the air while offe...

Lots of cry-babies on Twitter pulling out the loyalty card. Think about it from Rino, Laurent & Swift’s positions - can’t have enjoyed being part of a club with a losing mentality for several seasons, they’re entering their prime years & will want a shot at promotion. All 3 of those clubs h...
