Re: MATCHWATCH : Sheffield Wednesday (h) sponsored by oh no, not another Saturday home game

Well I am now firmly planted in the "Clement out" club. I argued long and often that changing managers quickly is too short-termist and that success is best built on consistency but I'm done with him. I don't care if he follows this up with 10 game winning streak. He can do nothing to red...

tmesis Something I was pondering on wednesday night...if you were a scout preparing a report on Reading, and you were asked to name the team's strengths, would you be able to name a single thing we are good at?

LOSING

NewCorkSeth We are for sure going down. For sure. 100%. Theres no way that the convoluted list of things that needs to happen for us to go down isnt going to happen.


The odds of them happening suggests they won't :roll:

Re: Relegation Watch

50 with Betway. Would still take a freak set of results, but I'm not taking any chances. That 50-1 is AMAZING. They are 66-1 on SKY It means we have to lose OK but we SHOULD lose at Cardiff It means Birmingham need a point. They will probably be about 2-1 or 5-2 for a WD Barnsley need a win, Burton...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Queens Park Rangers (h) sponsored by the season starts here

strap Bit nervous QPR have had 11 shots to our 5, luckily none on target. We've only had one on target, but scored from it.


Meaningless we're winning, Gunter "Paul Clement is the best manager I've worked under" !

"Jaap deserved a lot better," Gunter told BBC Radio Wales. "It's a real blow that a change has been made". "Jaap Stam is the best club manager I've worked for," added Gunter. "The things he did for the club, the squad and for players personally were really refreshi...

Re: CONFIMRED - Paul Clement appointed as new Royals boss

Hound I’m hoping the majority of those injuries have cleared up

Swift has to be 100% by now surely? Hopefully Elphick and McShane back, Richards, Kelly, Yann - even Mendes as well

He isn’t short of options

Henley Royal 1 Happy with appointment we were on our way down without doubt now we have a chance .


Strange appointment given his recent failings

Brian Clough failed at Brighton and Leeds before winning two European cups with Forest not that hes in that class .

Re: CONFIMRED - Paul Clement appointed as new Royals boss

He has the contacts, both here and abroad, which should enable access to some players that we otherwise wouldn't have. And if we somehow get promoted, he has PL experience, too. You never know how things will pan out, but he brings a fair amount to the table. Will be interesting to see how many of ...

Re: CONFIMRED - Paul Clement appointed as new Royals boss

I really don't get the Swansea criticism. This is a side that have been in trouble for a couple of years now, and are only in the PL to be in danger of relegation because he saved them first time round. It's not like Swansea are as established a PL side as we are Championship, or as big size wise f...

Re: POLL: Paul Clement in... are we still going down?

Hmmm. Well, its important to make the right appointment, so that you aren't changing again soon. Its nothing to do with Stam in that respect. He's gone. If you are making a choice, its important to make the right choice, at any given time. I don't disagree mate. My point was purely in response to t...

Awayawayaway Also, how refreshing is it going to be, in time, going away from home or even at home, knowing we'll have a tight defence.

He's good at getting teams nice and solid.


You can't beat a nice n solid ! Look forward to a few 0-0 draws which should be enuff tbf

Re: Definitive Paul Clement whelmguage

I am very whelmed. Jaap has gone and a new manager is here! Peter Sutcliffe could be taking over for all I care as long as Stam isn't here I am happy! Not a bad shout - very effective on the attack, although ultimately his poor defence was his downfall. Tactics were his downfall. Can't believe we'v...
