The EP says Liam Moore is Reading’s most valuable player at £4.85m so, given that fact, perhaps the club should have accepted £4m!

To be fair to the EP though they’re merely filling the long boring days of no real news with something that the transfetmarkt website has done.

£4m is not a lot for Chelsea but they see it as a cheap punt in the same way we saw someone like Nicky Shorey. If he makes it, he's a bargain, otherwise they loan him out for 3 years so his wages are covered and then flog him and recoup the transfer fee. It's a deal with almost zero risk for them. ...

Jason Tindall announced as the new Bournemouth manager. Tells me they aren't expecting anything next season and probably won't have any players left. Hope the disgusting cnuts fold! Pray for Reading4Eva In all seriousness, can see them still doing OK, reckon players like Stacey, Brooks, Cook, Solan...

How about introducing a rule that completely bans any form of signing on fee?

Looks like you can preorder a shirt on the OS but there doesn’t yet seem to be a way to preorder one with a name and number (presume that will follow once squad numbers are announced). However, in the meantime, you’d think you could buy one with a name and number of your own choosing.

Takes all sorts of course, but I think this absolutely the wrong way to go. We let James Henry go 10 years ago. In that time we've been Championship winners, we've played in the Premier League,. we've been to the FA Cup semi-final. How long were we supposed to hang on to him? He's a decent pro, but...

I don't disagree, I think we're in the situation where he will go for nothing in a year. Absolutely dreadful move by the club all round on how they have handled Moore's transfer/contract situation. he has 3 years left on his contract. if he was in his final year then it'd be good news Liam Moore si...

Simmops Cannot remember the last time we had two completely new league teams in league 2. Maybe the days of Boston, Rushden and Diamonds (ripip what a gr8 team)

Barrow are not a new team. Previously failed re-election in 1972 to Hereford United after 51 seasons in the FL

Hendo I really like our Macron kits, but this is just a bit shit.

Home Bargains could be a bit of a misfortunate sponsor if the season doesn’t pan out too well at Bolton

Just asking but with Osho going who will now be the back up for Yiadom once he starts playing again, Does this also suggest playing 5 - 3 - 2 more often and a midfielder backing up the right wing back position? Is this also the same issue at left back with Obita and Blackett going, and presumably u...

Harrogate go up from the National League, some achievement. Get the diggers in lads, you've got a lot of turf to lay! First few home games for Harrogate will have to be played “away”, presumably at Bradford, Leeds, York or Huddersfield, while the new turf settles in. But given no one is allowed to ...

For the record, the current top 10 longest serving managers in the Premier and Football League are now : ⋅  Simon Weaver (Harrogate Town) - 11 years, 73 days ⋅  Gareth Ainsworth (Wycombe) - 7 years, 313 days ⋅  Sean Dyche (Burnley) - 7 years, 277 days ⋅  John ...

Yes, as it was half a century ago, I can't remember much about the game except it was a massive crowd, probably the highest attendance I was in at Elm Park and The Biscuitmen did well and gave the Mighty U's a bit of a fright. It was the only time I saw Denis Law, Bobby Charlton etc. "in the f...

Was going through ‘personal issues’ during his loan spell with us....no wonder he was loaned out...Reading the xuckers as usual. What would his last seasons 11 goals have done for us? Noth8ng if he had played instead of either of the 2 players who scored more.... Unless his 11 goals turned up in ga...

For the Stadium sale? I doubt it. We had a realistic valuation and didn't deliberately record it in a different tax year to pass FFP. It seems unlikely, but we were still under investigation. Think the ground sale element is OK the issue is general overspend on the playing side of things though qui...

Would have been enough to see them finish bottom this season, and having it confirmed now would presumably impact on their possible transfer dealings this summer too.

Reading FC not releasing their new kit designs one week before the start of a season? What on earth is going on? Don't worry about it. They'll compensate by ensuring they're not available to buy until at least six weeks after the season has commenced! Previous years has seen kit announced about 1 m...
